¶ … revolutionary book, Wagner et al. (2012) have provided a highly effective reasoning for creating an innovation-driven economic system. They have examined what parents, instructors, and companies must do to create the capabilities of the youth to become innovators. The concept of social and economic transformation of schools as spearheaded by all stakeholders is largely evident in this book. Perhaps, this informed by the inherent problems facing many American schools where reforms are rarely being implemented while obsolesce carry the day. In this book, I have appreciated the importance of various invaluable diagnostic tools that stakeholders can use in detecting the needs of the schools in terms of organizational transformation.

For instructors with a fixed attitude, I think that information is a fixed point, and failing is still a damaging term. In case we desire to change our curriculum, we must view failures as wrong steps towards new knowledge, as part of the educational journey as to be expected and natural, which promote a growth attitude (Wagner et al., 2012).
The process of modifying and creating instructional contents within schools in order to meet the needs of all stakeholders can be challenging. In this book, I have appreciated the value of the seven principles of strengthening the methods used to impart knowledge to students.
