Through a Different Lens: Lessons from a Life in Education

In Through a Different Lens, Ger Graus, a global authority on education in the areas of experience-based learning and human potential, gives us a unique and invaluable perspective on education, children, and schooling. His personal and professional reflections remind us that we all need stories and personal narratives to help us understand and navigate today’s world.

Ger Graus shows us that we must use education as a tool for bringing about positive change. He implores the reader to feel empowered to share their own stories and experiences, with an understanding that “everybody is an educator.” In this professional autobiography, he includes:

• The importance of early childhood, children’s contexts, and social mobility • The multi-dimensionality of childhood: one size never fits all • The value of experience-based learning and the importance of heroes and sheroes • Zero to 99: lifelong learning • Innovation, purpose, and measuring what we value • The future of education and schooling

Spanning forty years across forty countries, the author leaves us with his personal stories and lessons learned, anecdotes, and most importantly, stories and observations about magical teachers, inspirational leaders, wonderful children, and families. This is an inspiring read for all those who teach, for parents and caretakers, for policy advisors, and for anyone who cares deeply about the education of the world's children.
