Kalimah Priforce, Hackademic - "Education Innovation for the 99%"

Education innovation isn't about iPad apps or virtual reality. It's about making every room into a classroom - even when there isn't a room. It's about de-isolating our youth by sharing our stories with them. It's about closing the divides, not widening them. Build a bridge, and they will cross it. In the words of Charles Dickens, "Keep the child in view", in the words of the Notorious B.I.G., "If you don't know, now you know".
