By Colleen Hroncich| The American Spectator Verified If you spend any time on social media, you’ve probably seen plenty of fearmongering and hysteria about the changing educational landscape. But don’t let your Facebook friends or Instagram followers lead you astray. What’s happening in education is exciting — and long overdue — not something to be feared.
By Colleen Hroncich| Cato Institute Verified When talking to the founder of a microschool that’s called Spyrja Academy, the first question kind of asks itself. “I’m a huge fan of Old Norse literature, like the prose and poetic Edda and leaning into Norse mythology,” explains Jourdan Simmang. As he was trying to think of a unique name for his microschool, he looked to the ancient Norse language for inspiration. The word spyrja means “to ask” or “to learn,” which is what he wants students to do in his program.
