One of the best things about creating a project named One Percent Better is the freedom it allows me to experiment. Today’s episode is one of those experiments.  If the goal is to go to sleep a little smarter, a little stronger, a little wiser, than we were when we woke up, then the work that is required cannot be safe.  This episode debuts in August, as Summer fades, and young people everywhere head back to school. This conversation showcases the ideas of an innovative educator who has the courage to ask, “what if?”  Read Glenn Robbins' post here. Sign up for 1% Wednesday here.
