Overview

Imagine the success our children can have if all found school emotionally fulfilling. Unfortunately, the reality is that far too many youth, regardless of their social background, don't enjoy school. The premises, policies, and procedures that drive the conventional education model in the US create a system that reduces opportunities for self-discovery. Many students become alienated from school rather than empowered by it. Consequently, our youth underperform not only in school but also later on in the workplace. Ultimately, they fail to fulfill their potential and the contribution they could otherwise give to society. In Don't Let School Get in the Way of Education, author and education expert Dr. Anane Olatunji gives us a detailed look at the rift between the conventional education system and the performance of youth, exploring the disconnect between current academic approaches and students' well-being. Dr. Olatunji then presents a new paradigm for education, his FACES framework, centered on Fun, Affirmation, Challenge, Expression, and Success that empowers students and gives them the self-knowledge they need to realize their full potential and aspirations. School systems, administrators, teachers, parents, and their children will all benefit from this revolutionary approach to education.
