Stanford University

The d.school is a hub for innovators at Stanford University. The school will develop a program that challenges school leaders to engage a national campaign to shadow a student for a day and then to participate in an online leadership course to develop "do it yourself" approaches to create greater deeper learning opportunities for students. This work challenges assumptions that deeper learning-focused schools must be purpose-built institutions and tests the theory of diffusion that by making elements of deeper learning easy to "test out" using existing structures, the practices and ideas will be more likely to spread.
