Disrupting Class

by Clayton M. Christensen, Michael B. Horn and Curtis W. Johnson

Disruption theory applied to schools: student-centric learning via online tools, why reform from within fails, and how change comes from nonconsumption. Prescient about online learning, optimistic about outcomes.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Disruption enters where there is no alternative.
  2. Student-centric beats monolithic.
  3. Reform from within is structurally hard.

Do this first

Find the nonconsumption in your school, the courses not offered, and test an online option there.

Our verdict

Prescient on online learning.
