Post-screening panel discussion with Executive Producer Ted Dintersmith.
Over 120 years ago, the American educational system was designed based on industrial models of organizational structure rather than educational principles. Most Likely to Succeed makes a passionate case for the urgent need of reform. Providing a clear and concise look at the history of education in the country, the documentary primarily focuses on possible solutions, featuring an array of insightful interviews with teachers, specialists, and policy-makers as well as an insider's look at the efforts of one particular Californian high school that has completely revised its structure and curriculum to incorporate more modern educational models and philosophies. Greg Whiteley's engaging, impassioned yet personal documentary is sure to inspire much needed reflection and discussion about the way forward for today's educators and schools.
