Course Description
Educational reforms generally have failed despite powerful advocates, high expectations, federal policies and billions of dollars. National reports showed that the USA was A Nation at Risk and that No Child (should be) Left Behind. Nonetheless, America's risk grows and many, many children continue to be left behind. The nation needs a plan for its long-term direction so that students could be inspired to solve the problems of their future as occurred when Kennedy pointed to the moon as an American goal. This course intends to get Olli students involved in designing a process for that plan. OLLI students also will research the issues that tomorrow's adults likely will face regarding environment, careers, technology, resources, humanity, etc. OLLI students will help in finding expertise to further the procedure and plan for this potential, educational reform.
