What if you were given a blank canvas to design a new school from the ground up? How would students spend their day? What learning experiences would it include? What would the building look like? Would they even need a classroom? Most of us don't have the luxury to build from the ground up, but with micro-schools, edu- innovators like you are beginning to re-imagine the schooling experience. With their small, flexible structure, micro-schools are able to rapidly adapt and design more learner-centered experiences.  I sat down with micro-school founder Michael Ha, to learn about his brand new open age, experiential, project-based, personalized, biosphere and sustainability grounded 'Elements College.' Through our interview, you will learn how to: Come up with the design principals to accelerate our own learner-centered environments Build and scaffold self-management and self-directed skills in learners Embrace the 6 C's and make them come to life  Connect learners to the Metaverse Organize learning experiences that move beyond the four walls of our classsroom and into the biosphere Build a reflective culture that allows for rapid prototyping and iteration Learn More about Elements College: https://www.elementcollege.com.au/ Connect with Michael via LinkedIn (@michaelhaedu) and Twitter (@MichaelHaEDU).
