"You should feel like if we're really talking about making school like the real world, the school should be a place where we're literally teaching students how to enact their freedoms and speak up against systems which are not working well, whether it's at work or whether it's in your community or whether it's in your religious establishment, whatever it is. But you see yourself as a real change maker in the world because you see yourself as free. Everything in the school is surrounded by that principle and ideal."

Why do students struggle? I'd argue that they lack access to quality instruction, but think about it. That's totally out of their control. What if there was something we could teach kids there was something within their control that would help them be successful in every class? It's not a magic pill or a figment of your imagination.
When students internalize Executive Functioning Skills they succeed.
