Synopsis
WHAT IF THE GOAL of our education system shifted from “reducing failure rates” to inspiring all students to reach their full personal and academic potential—ensuring that no child was ever held back from optimal achievement? As a parent—what if you found the right tools you need to support your child in finding and achieving their purposes in school and life? As an educator—what if you got real help, the help you need and deserve to ensure success for you and your students in the classroom and beyond? As an administrator—what if you had access to state-of-the-art tools and methodologies allowing your teachers and students to excel? As a community leader—what if you had a blueprint empowering you with effective tools and knowledge to allow the schools in your community to thrive? What if we could create an education system in which, no matter were one was born or their personal circumstances—every child had the chance to reach their full potential? With a ground-breaking approach to an idea whose time has come, expose yourself to a new paradigm of No Child Held Back, change your mindset—and change your world.
About the Author
Yovel Badash earned his B.Sc. from the Open University in Tel Aviv. “The way it works is simple – there are no acceptance criteria –anyone can learn anything they want,” says Yovel. “When you register for a course, the university sends you a large box of course materials every semester. You have a meeting with a guide once every few weeks and you literally learn alone at home. It’s a very different way of learning and seeing how most of my friends learned in ‘traditional’ universities, I couldn’t help but think –why isn’t there more of this?” Yovel completed his degree while holding down a demanding, full-time sales and marketing position. “My degree in Computer Science and Management is a great example of how you can literally learn anything if you have great materials, some good guidance and a lot of willpower.” He went on to found NaMaYa, Inc., a next-generation education platform as a service (PaaS) provider for the education sector. Yovel consults companies and organizations in the business and education sectors in his role as co-founder and president of Strategic Biz Dev, a full-service business development firm, and he is the founder of NoChildHeldBack.com, a consortium of schools, parents, teachers, technology and content providers committed to education excellence.
