Technological innovation presents unique challenges to everyday workers as industries are being transformed. Technological advancements will ultimately create millions of jobs and enable further growth. But such progress will also displace millions of workers.
In my 14-year career, I had never witnessed this amount of innovation and change in education. It was a change that responded to what parents and teachers and the dollars they represent wanted.
Many education funds come with restrictions on how they can or cannot be spent. The programs mean well, but the money comes with heavy bureaucratic rules. They limit schools’ and teachers' creativity and inhibit innovation.
These bills create an educational environment that is more friendly to innovation by the people who are closest to the programs and students affected by regulatory restrictions.
