What motivated the founding of Quest to Learn?
The students of today will soon be the scholars, scientists, entrepreneurs, writers, designers, and leaders of tomorrow. The goal of Quest to Learn is to educate children for college and career success in the 21st century. In a world that is increasingly networked, collaborative, global, and systems oriented the ability to resource knowledge, judge the credibility of information, and collaborate across disciplines are necessary literacies. While Quest to Learn leverages educational technologies and digital media, the strength of our model is our focus on 21st century learning creating authentic assessment, increasing student engagement, and equipping students with strategies to become lifelong learners.
