ABOUT US
Are you a First Responder to the Future?
Edjacent’s mission is to support educators, parents, and caregivers - first responders to the future. Our community is designed to share content and coaching so first responders can work together to develop innovative solutions for a more sustainable future.
WHO WE ARE
Edjacent is a design collaborative of educators who believe in empowering first responders for the future.
In order to meet the needs of the current generation without compromising the needs of generations to come, we must champion educators, parents, and caregivers and model a sustainable future for young people. First responders for the future deserve the best resources and support available to do this vital work.
OUR VISION
Creating the adjacent possible for education.
"The adjacent possible is a kind of shadow future, hovering on the edges of the present state of things, a map of all the ways in which the present can reinvent itself.”
– Steven Johnson, Where Good Ideas Come From
This theory posits that innovation comes from systems that develop NEXT TO traditional systems, forcing change when the system itself is not interested in changing. Our vision is to create the adjacent possible for education.
