The Foundations of our Work

Members of the former International Advisory Board of New Horizons for Learning have provided much of the basis for our work since the beginning of our organization in 1980. On our tenth anniversary we invited each of them to write a brief article reflecting their current thinking on learning. These were compiled into a book called Creating the Future, presented in its entirety on our website. (Hard copy available).

The following documents form the foundations of our work:

• The Cornerstone:   Our work began with this information
• Creating the Future:   Articles by our advisors about new ideas on learning.
• Positive Trends:   A report written for IBM about new trends in education. For a Spanish language translation of this work, go to Tendencias Positivas: Cómo satisfacer las necesidades de un mundo rápidamente cambiante.
