Every classroom should be a place of curiosity, conjectures, creativity and collaboration. To do this, a culture of authentic learning must be established. This culture begins when we unravel the construct that is school, and replace it with the messiness of embracing failing, growing, questioning, and risk-taking. The humans entrusted to us deserve nothing less than this.
