Mariner Learning Collaborative is part of a growing movement for change in education.

This video by Sir Ken Robinson is the most watched TED talk of all time, inspirational from start to finish. He makes the case that we’re all born with deep natural capacities for creativity and it is increasingly urgent that we provide opportunities for young people to cultivate them. That’s what we do at Mariner Learning Collaborative.
