Julie Stern
Julie is passionate about synthesizing the best education research into practical tools that support educators in breaking free of the industrial model of schooling. She believes education holds the power to change the world and consistently seeks ways to help teachers turn required curriculum into authentic experiences, where students use their learning to promote sustainability, equity, and well-being. Julie previously served as Director of Curriculum Innovation for a network of schools, where she led the transformation of curriculum and assessments for all subject areas in grades 6-12. She began blogging about her vision and practice, which led to four best-selling books, a comprehensive professional learning series, and a team of amazing colleagues and collaborators who support educators worldwide. She began her career as an experiential educator, using the city of Washington, DC to teach civics, history, and youth activism and she now moves internationally every few years with her husband, a US diplomat, and her two children.
