The Future of Learning Coalition is an alliance of organizations working to advance an innovation ecosystem for equitable, student-centered education in Illinois to better prepare future-ready students and empower them to realize their greatest potential.
Together we can help Illinois build the groundwork for encouraging and supporting districts interested in using innovative, equity-focused teaching and learning strategies.
The Coalition believes that students in Illinois deserve an education that equitably:
School districts across Illinois zip codes must shift the way students learn: away from antiquated time- and place-based systems and toward a modern, future-forward, student-centered, “learn everywhere” system.
Through a shared lens of racial and socioeconomic equity, with a whole-child focus, coalition members are pursuing four specific areas. Under the banner of the Coalition, partner organizations—in an organized, ongoing and evolving series of district outreach and education efforts—will share and promote their research, initiatives, programs and especially innovative school and educator case studies in these focus areas.
Robotics is a machine that will build the people who will change the world and our future for the better. On February 27, 2023, 4–5 p.m., join students and educators from Curie HS, IMSA, and Phoenix STEM Military Academy who are passionate about robotics for a conversation.
Please join the Future of Learning Coalition to hear why the time is right for significant innovation, review some of our initiatives, and share our priorities for the future.
