Empower[Ed] has shaped my belief that teaching and learning improve when educators are willing to experiment, reflect, and design learning experiences that are more personalized, relevant, and empowering for students. | 1 | |

He then investigates the nature of childhood, including why children need play and independent exploration to mature into competent, thriving adults.
