RE/EDUCATION provides student centered, inquiry based learning for every age, from preschool through college.

The work also includes SAT, ACT, ISEE, and AP preparation, college essays, and blending academic and creative work. We consult with parents on digital safety and citizenship, homework management, and student advocacy. RE/EDUCATION is Lorri Horn, M.A.Ed., and me, Bryan Sanders, Ed.D.

How I teach
I nurture a learning environment where students create more than they consume. It is my belief that we have not yet fully harnessed what teachers and students can do with computers as part of the teaching and learning cycle. Students imagine, create, program, and build robots, games, and applications, with digital citizenship and online safety alongside.
Guiding principles
- Human development has not significantly changed in comparison to the rapid changes of technology and culture.
- Relationships with parents and other students matter most. Technology happens inside of strong relationships.
- Hands on activities are essential (building with blocks or tools, digging in the dirt), and screens cannot replace them.
- Kids still need help and guidance to use technology to become builders, creators, storytellers, and composers. They are not born knowing how.
- Technology usage in families needs negotiation and practice.
Tools we build with
Minecraft, MakeCode, Scratch, Logo Turtle Art, micro:bit, Makey Makey, Hummingbird Robotics, LEGO Robotics, and Tynker.
