L.o.l. Learning Out Loud X Leaders Of The New School! : Emmanuel Smith : Tedxdetroit

GOOD EDUCATION DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A QUIET ONE! I've worked for elementary schools for over a decade now. I'm a part of a growing underground movement that's bucking against the traditional docile education system! LEARNING = EXCITEMENT! The classrooms can no longer be SILENT! It's time for a REVIVAL! Emmanuel “Mr. E in the D” Smith is the Dean of Culture at the UPA Elementary School – Ellen Thompson Campus in Detroit. Mr. E founded an edutainment company based on the 4 Es – “through Edutainment we Encourage, Educate, and Empower children to be lifelong learners who aren’t afraid to take risks because life is an adventure!” He is on a mission is to help spark & reimagine what learning can look and sound like. Emmanuel was awarded an Emmy last year for The Mr. E Show web series. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
