Tony Joins The Board of Better World Ed

I’m truly excited to join the Board of one of the most creative and innovative education organizations that I’ve seen. Better World Ed is breaking new ground in helping teachers teach students essential 21st century skills while also developing their capacity for empathy and compassion, all while practicing literacy and numeracy in an inclusive, global way.

SEL cannot be taught as an "add-on," but rather must be integrated into literacy and numeracy lessons. Better World Ed provides global wordless videos that engage kids in moments from other cultures, while providing a springboard to skills. Global Social Emotional Learning.

In my memoir, Learning By Heart, I share how important it is that we engage every learner’s heart, mind, and soul — to truly love lifelong learning. Better World Ed is creating the curriculum to help learners do just that — across borders and lines of difference. Join us on the learning journey at BetterWorldEd.org.
