Create your ideal educational experience using the readings for this week.  Feel free to bring in any additional sources to create your ideal educational experience.  The experience can be a school for pre-K, K-12, higher education, corporate training, and more.  Consider online options, face-to-face options, homeschooling, new media technologies. 

In a 750 word (minimum) essay, first, describe the audience/students you wish to serve.  Then describe the experience. Also consider the cost.  Is it public or private?  Should it be open online and, therefore, free?  Demonstrate a connection to your readings and any outside sources you select.  In demonstrating the connections, you may agree with the readings, or they may serve as a platform for your own ideas, which may argue against the resources.
