Dr. Coleman shares her journey from being a superintendent in Danville to leading the Deeper Learning Initiative in OVAC. She discusses her realization about the limitations of focusing solely on test scores and how visiting schools like High Tech High and the I School inspired her to make drastic changes in her district. Dr. Coleman explores the importance of teaching skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication, which are not adequately taught in schools, creating an opportunity gap. She dives into the obstacles faced during the progress and challenges the current accountability system that prioritizes multiple-choice tests and hinders meaningful learning.

She highlights the power of transparent learning and engaging in conversations with different groups to ensure equity. Through thought-provoking questions and personal anecdotes, Dr. Coleman challenges the current education system and encourages listeners to think differently about equipping children for success.
