A writer and thinker on the topics of online learning and education, Will Richardson may sound like he favors doing away with school buildings. He doesn’t, but his point is this: self-learning is in the hands of kids while pursing creative interests. “We have access to so much information outside classrooms, and powerful Web technologies really amplifies it. Schools are the most important institutions in communities,” Richardson said Thursday at Glenbrook South High School in Glenview. “But part of learning is leaving the school and that’s the good thing. Students can create their own digital stories, games and animations.”
