In 2024, we announced our inaugural Learner-Centered Ecosystem Lab, an effort to support and study twelve diverse sites across the country—from the streets of Brooklyn to the mountains of Ojai—that are demonstrating or piloting ecosystemic approaches. In our collaborations and site visits, together we are facing the challenges and opportunities of transforming public education. Although there is more work to do, we’ve begun to observe deeper insights, aligned with our Ecosystem Readiness Framework, about what’s needed to bring learner-centered ecosystems to life.
Education Reimagined
Education Reimagined is a national nonprofit organization, based in Washington DC, harnessing the power of visionaries across the country to create a new design for public education that is centered around learners and their communities, versus schools. Since its inception, Education Reimagined has successfully furthered the effort to codify, advance, and elevate the field of learner-centered education. Its work now is focused on coalescing the partners, marshaling the funding and resources, and accelerating the R&D process to establish community-based, learner-centered ecosystems as a viable, accountable and sustainable design for public education.
