How can parents, educators, and all of us unleash real learning? This book offers a fresh the Empowered Learner, helping anyone own their genius and accomplish their goals. A Fire to Be Kindled takes a practical look at the structures surrounding students and explains how thousands of children are becoming Empowered Learners through Prenda microschools. The world needs Empowered Learners. The sooner we empower ourselves and the next generation, the brighter the future will be.
