As discussed in “How to Redesign Schools for the AI Age” by Claire Donnelly and Meghna Chakrabarti (WBUR, September 3, 2025), schools are rethinking education in the era of AI. Renzulli Learning helps districts move beyond rote instruction toward deeper learning that builds creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. By personalizing enrichment and project-based experiences for every learner, Renzulli empowers schools to deliver the kind of “thinking curriculum” experts say the future demands.

The conversation features education leaders like Linda Darling-Hammond, who argue that while many districts talk about 21st-century skills, policy, schedules, and testing still reinforce the old transmission model (sit, listen, memorize, bubble). The call to action is clear: redesign learning experiences around deeper learning, real-world problem solving, and equitable access to a “thinking curriculum.”

How Renzulli Learning Supports “Schools of the Future”

• From coverage to creation: Our platform centers student-driven, strength-based learning—moving past rote knowledge toward designing, building, testing, and revising products and solutions through interest-based projects and Genius-Hour-style investigations. This aligns directly with the shift away from the factory model toward authentic, interdisciplinary work.

• Durable skills, not just test skills: Renzulli Learning’s experiences and tools are designed to nurture creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and judgment—the human capabilities emphasized as essential in an AI economy.

• Modern assessment mindset: The episode highlights the limits of multiple-choice testing for deeper thinking. Renzulli Learning complements traditional measures with performance-based tasks, interest and strength profiles, and creativity assessment and development pathways—giving educators actionable data to drive richer learning.

• Equity by design: Leaders stress the need for equitable access to a thinking curriculum. Renzulli Learning helps schools scale high-interest, project-based enrichment to all learners—so deeper learning isn’t limited to a select few.
