Here's what some of the HundrED Academy Members had to say:
"It was a real joy to read about so many innovative ideas within education and to fully appreciate the lengths to which people from across the globe are going so that they can help young people to achieve, aspire and grow as individuals."
-Patrick Carroll, England, Assistant Head
"I unexpectedly found that this was an inspirational process and saved the bookmarks of many of the groups I evaluated and will look for opportunities to work with later."
-Stephen Whitaker, México, Director of Technology
"I was delighted to have been a part of the academy and to be entrusted with this responsibility. It was an incredible learning experience for me as I looked at how people took challenges they witnessed and used their resources, both mental, emotional and the capacities they had to help learners resolve them. I was inspired by the innovations that took children beyond their spaces of comfort, and turned those opportunities into incredible learning and nurturing experiences."
-Elizabeth Lopez, Malaysia, Education Consultant
"It was an exceptional experience to review numerous innovations through HundrED. The quality of the innovations and learning about how people are helping one another to better serve and educate children provides a hopeful future. Children throughout the world are deprived of experiential learning, and many of the innovations provide opportunities they would not otherwise have. Thank you for the opportunity to learn by doing."
-Dr. Bille Rondinelli, USA, Grable Fellow

-Lissette Rojas, Venezuela CEO and Co Founder of TrixandTrax
"It was eye opening for me to see what people are doing around the globe and how they are going about promoting their work. In some cases, it made me sad because the innovations in one country might be considered just basic programming in another. I loved seeing the commonalities of education around the globe. It's heartening to see the powerful work that others are engaged in and it gives me hope for our future as a planet of humans."
-Lisa Gottfried, USA, Digital Design Educator
"It's always amazing to see such wonderful innovations coming from different people around the world.
