Studies in neuroscience reveal that the way we learn doesn’t always match up with the way we are taught. To stay competitive―academically, economically, and technologically―we need to apply the proven principles of Disruptive Innovation to our educational system. Disrupting Class explains how to:

• Help more students succeed through customized learning
• Meet the demand for new technology, especially computers, in student-centric classrooms
• Use Disruptive Innovation to circumvent roadblocks that have stood in the way of reform
• Compete in the global classroom―and help students get ahead in the global market

Disrupting Class challenges the conventional understanding of intelligence and empowers educators to reevaluate their current school program and reinvigorate their commitment to learning. The future is now. Class is in session.
