What if educational environments identified and met student
needs when those needs are key to learning?
What if educational environments were integrated with–rather
than separate from– the lives that students live outside of
school?
What if we attended not only to individual success, but also to
the success, health, and vitality of our communities?
What if we insisted that the structures of college be humane?

“There are millions of students out there who are making very painful
trade offs in the purchase of learning materials relative to paying the
rent, paying for basic needs, food, etc. We as an industry have chosen
for a long time to basically ignore that—or have more or less been
paying lip service to them.”

own learning from a position of agency . . .
[It] takes seriously the educational imperative to encourage
students to act on the knowledge, values, and social
relations they acquire by being responsive to the deepest
and most important problems of our times.

What shifts when we center education
a round hum a n ne e d s & hum a n live s?
and around collective humanity ?

What if educational environments identified and met student
needs when those needs are key to learning?
What if educational environments were integrated with–rather
than separate from– the lives that students live outside of
school?
What if we attended not only to individual success, but also to
the success, health, and vitality of our communities?
What if we insisted that the structures of college be humane?

“There are millions of students out there who are making very painful
trade offs in the purchase of learning materials relative to paying the
rent, paying for basic needs, food, etc. We as an industry have chosen
for a long time to basically ignore that—or have more or less been
paying lip service to them.”
Michael Hansen, CEO, Cengage (2018)

Critical pedagogy asserts that students can engage their
own learning from a position of agency . . .
[It] takes seriously the educational imperative to encourage
students to act on the knowledge, values, and social
relations they acquire by being responsive to the deepest
and most important problems of our times.
