Dear reader,
Nontraditional learners and different ways of learning are among our favorite topics at The Hechinger Report.
For example, did you know about some of the latest efforts to target the roughly 27 million adults age 25 or older don’t even have a high school diploma – at a time when more and more good jobs require college degree – and to help them earn both?
Or that the tuition-free-college movement has been taking hold throughout the country is leaving out many adults? And that some teachers are creating customized “playlists,” to help students learn at their own pace?
All of these fascinating bits of information are part of the stories we told last week via our partnership with the New York Times “Learning,” section, and you can read all about them on our site. We loved learning about them – and can’t wait to share and hear what you think. Reply directly to this email to share your thoughts with us.
