What is Adaptive Education : an Inquiry-based Institution about?

The Obstacles That Prevent The Latest Educational Research Reaching The Classroom Are Daunting: Few Channels To Communicate The Results Of Educational Research, Fewer Opportunities For Teachers To Participate In Research Themselves, And Little Support For Honing A Scientific Approach To Teaching. The Solution, According To Robert Vanwynsberghe And Andrew C. Herman, Is Radical But Simple: Transform The Educational Institution Itself Into A Laboratory For Continuous Experimentation. Inspired By The Pragmatist Theories Of John Dewey And Roberto Unger, Adaptive Education Explains How Schools And Universities Can Incorporate Research Processes Into Their Activities, Institutionalize A Policy Of Inquiry And Experimentation, And Make Teaching An Evidence-based Profession. An Audacious Proposal To Reform The Education System From The Ground Up, Adaptive Education Is A Roadmap For Creating An Institution That Empowers Teachers, Parents, And The Community To Innovate, Adapt, And Explore.-- Introduction -- The Foundations Of An Evidence-based Institution -- The Search For A Blueprint -- Designing An Inquiring Institution -- Learning To Teach -- The Role Of The Epistemic Division -- Conclusion
