Looking back on my years as a teacher, one theme stands out: American schools try to take on too much. Theyβre asked to be the solution for nearly every social problem. But when you try to be everything, failure is inevitable.

A reminder that βknowingβ is not binary, it's not an on/off thing. We move through stages; hearing, recognising, recalling, mastering, before knowledge becomes truly usable. This example of of children's different phrases of 'knowing' words from Beck, McKeown, and Kucan is so useful as an illustration.

Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word βWe.β βWe The People.β βWe Shall Overcome.β βYes We Can.β America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens. And at this moment in historyβwhen core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengagedβnow is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people.
