Description

At EDC, we are committed to education that builds knowledge and skill, makes possible a deeper understanding of the world, and engages learners as active, problem-solving participants. We believe that authentic education begins with questions: a teacher wanting to know a new way to solve a mathematics problem; a doctor wondering how to ease the transition for the family of a dying patient; a teenager wanting to know why school matters in life and career; a principal searching for better ways to meet the needs of students with disabilities; a mother considering whether to breastfeed. Over the decades, the best of EDC’s projects have helped people raise and explore questions of importance in their lives.
