Almost all of today’s “solutions” for educational issues are about fixing you and me. They include more fear, embarrassment, incentives, ranking, and competitions. Meanwhile, real solutions are just below the surface. This fast-paced, sometimes humorous, presentation will describe deep-seated problems today’s educators inherited along with solutions.
Jenkins, a former California public school educator and superintendent, and now a speaker, consultant, and author, has a lifelong passion for improving education. Jenkins owns LtoJ Consulting Group, which focuses on leadership consulting and learning system improvement.
Jenkins is the author of three ASQ Quality Press-published books, Boot Camp for Leaders in K-12 Education, Improving Student Learning, and Permission to Forget, all of which address strategies for higher student achievement.
