The Hewlett Foundation’s Deeper Learning Initiative offers a third approach that
is currently being piloted and researched in schools. The foundation describes
“deeper learning” as students “using their knowledge and skills in a way that
prepares them for real life.” Further, “they are mastering core academic content,
like reading, writing, math, and science, while learning how to think critically,
collaborate, communicate effectively, direct their own learning, and believe in
themselves” (Deeper Learning, n.d.).
