A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Nadav Zeimer earned his B.A. in physics at Brandeis University, studied secondary science education at The City College of NY, and public affairs at Baruch College. Nadav worked as a software engineer and automation specialist in Silicon Valley prior to becoming an award-winning physics and robotics teacher and turnaround high school principal. Nadav's transition from software to education started when he launched his first nonprofit corporation in 2000, focused on hyper-local digital radio production, later known as podcasting. Mr. Zeimer brought podcasting into his science classroom and by 2009 was selected to lead a new school design team in NYC. His digital media focused approach turned a failing school on the verge of shutdown into a top-performing institution for low-income students. Nadav's passion project is to eliminate standardized testing and replace it with hand-on media production. Principal Zeimer's work has been featured in a range of media from a full-length documentary about his robotics students (the first all minority team to be nationally ranked) which was released at the TriBeCa Film Center, coverage in Popular Mechanics Magazine, The New York Times, Chalkbeat, WNYC / SchoolBook, and DNAinfo among many others. With the help of his wife, friends, and community-based partners, principal Zeimer secured millions of dollars to support hand-on STEAM and social justice programming, with a special focus on addressing the mindset of students involved in the foster care system. The Zeimers adopted their first child from Japan and currently serve as foster parents to a medically fragile child.

Dr. Stein studied philosophy and religion at Hampshire College, and then educational neuroscience, human development, and the philosophy of education at Harvard University. While a student at Harvard, he co-founded what would become Lectica, Inc., a non-profit dedicated to the research-based, justice-oriented reform of large-scale standardized testing in K-12, higher-education, and business.
