Learning from Learners’ Perspectives on Postsecondary Value
Increasingly, the value of college is being called into question. In the wake of education disruptions caused by COVID, rising college costs, and greater awareness of systemic injustices, more young people are asking whether college is worth it. This session centers the voices of three learners featured in Roadtrip Nation documentaries designed to help people understand and feel the impact that delivering equitable postsecondary value can have in the lives of real people—and in turn, to envision how immense the societal impact would be if equitable value was achieved at an even greater scale.
