- Are the things we value most in schools designed to empower our students for a successful future or are they based primarily on the nostalgia of our past? Should our focus be to prepare students for state and national standardized tests that assess the knowledge and skills which machines are increasingly automating for us? Or instead, should our focus be to prepare students for life by developing essential skills like communication, collaboration, and creativity as they tackle local issues applicable to them? Cory Henwood, education innovator and founder of @LaunchHS, proposes updates to our traditional educational values to help us avoid this tragic automation of education by inviting us to empower students and teachers as we place them at the center of our designs for a much more relevant and personalized education model. Cory Henwood is the Innovative Teaching and Learning Coordinator at Iron County School District and is the founding designer of Launch High School, a personalized, competency-based school focused on projects with local industry partners. Cory's passion for educational reform and the empowerment of teachers and students has guided his work in both Canada and the US as a principal, instructional coach, consultant, and math teacher. He has high hopes for the future of education and is driven to provide a rich and relevant educational experience tailored for each student, including his four little ones, Skylee(7), Sophee(5), Sydnee(4), and Dawson(2). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Cory Henwood builds the strong rationale for why and how schools must change to accommodate the emerging needs of tomorrow's workforce. He references the relevant facts and current thought leaders to invite innovation into schools and schooling.
Thank you, Cassandra, although I didn't quote you directly in this talk, your work as a thought leader in this space has certainly influenced mine.
I love these approaches to school. Our kids need more focus on people skills, instead of being buried in their phones. This was such a powerful presentation! I'll be following to see where this goes @CoryHenwood
Good work! Way to confront such a hard problem to fix.
Outstanding information and perspective! I agree entirely and want to see the change. For society to keep moving forward we need to see change and presentations like this will help that change happen. Corey, you will become the catalyst for educational reform.
Thanks Todd for your support and efforts to do the same in your classroom. I am very grateful for your help in the design of our new school, Launch High School, trying to implement these ideas. We will ride this wave in the future together.
Nicely done Cory! Powerful message and a realistic ability to implement this vision!
Thanks Troy, I appreciate the support!
Surprising and encouraging insights here about the value of education, teachers, and life. New insights how automation trends impact education and learning outcomes as well. Bravo!
So much good! Let's rethink education! We can do better than "parents pasts." You're doing great work, Cory!
Thanks so much to my tech leader of the year friend! Thanks for your partnership and support.
Great work, Cory! Glad you're getting that message out!
Thanks Nick! Appreciate your support.
He's right on the problem and has a good read on the solution
Thanks Tyler, glad I've got partners like you to help tackle these large issues.
Cory, thanks so much for helping us understand why and how we should modernize our educational practices, and for the important reform work you're doing in Utah and beyond.
Thank you Eliot for your all-important support of competency-based work throughout the country, of our work in Utah at Launch High School, and certainly of my work personally. You empower innovators to innovate!
Great job, Hubbs. I am so proud of you and the amazing work you are doing to better the future of education!
Love you! Couldn't do it without you.
Good to see you on here as a fellow educator, Cory. You and your committee have come up with some great ideas. A lot of these ideals are the reason I love being an IB educator. Skills based education is clearly the key, however, public and private sector education are ham-stringed by the requirements of post secondary admission requirements.
This message and idea blew my mind, Cory. You delivered this with such passion and conviction. I'm happy to have people like you in my area doing amazing things. Keep it up!
Thanks John, this means a lot, we will be keeping in touch with folks like you as we seek to improve education in our area.
Found the school he mentions! Launch High School in Utah!
I go to that school!
Cory, enlightening and brilliant. Great job.xo
Oh, that was amazing! Thank you Cory I learnt a lot from your greatt inspirational speech
All I have to say is YES!
Awesome presentation, Cory. And great to connect with a fellow Canuck. I love seeing those eight essential skills on which your school district is focusing. Would love to hear more how this is playing out in your district.
Thanks so much Sean! Look forward to collaborating further in the future on our shared pursuit. We are all in this together. All hands on Deck.
Cory, this is very innovative. I loved the focus on having students become problem solvers through project-based learning. Great job!
Thanks Garett, we are proud to have partners like you to make that dream a reality.
Great talk, Cory! Thanks!
Great job Cory! Way to make the needed changes happen!
Thanks Drake! Keep on rocking it in Millard.
I want to go to this guy's school!
What a fantastic perspective. I fully agree!
Right on, Cory. Nice synopsis of the key issues we are grappling with and a nice mix of positive solutions and vision!

I wouldn't trust anything cory says he has worked in the troubled teen industry for years
Even Principal of Diamond Ranch Academy
Did you mean "wouldn't"
@@QueenV1981 yes
We want to learn, school kills that for us.
I barely made it through school's hoops
Schools teach obedience, not life skills
