When the school district of Philadelphia teamed up with the Microsoft Corporation in 2006 to redesign the American high school, the result was the School of the Future, hailed by National Public Radio as “the next big thing,” by Education Week as “a new high-tech school [that is] strutting its stuff,” and by NBC News as “next-generation education.” While technology was a crucial element at the School of the Future, the redesign sought fundamentally to rethink the models for teaching and learning. Their trademark framework for decision making, the “6Is”—introspection, investigation, inclusion, innovation, implementation, and, again, introspection—is now being used by organizations in more than fifteen countries.
Frederick M. Hess is director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute and executive editor of Education Next. His books include What Next? Educational Innovation and Philadelphia’s School of the Future, and Stretching the School Dollar: How Schools and Districts Can Save Money While Serving Students Best, both published by Harvard Education Press.
Bruno V. Manno is senior advisor for education with the Walton Family Foundation. He is co-author of Charter Schools in Action and numerous other works on education policy and reform.
