Decoding music to make education relevant for children today

While at the 3rd Annual Family and Community Engagement (FACE) Symposium, I caught up with Byron Garrett, Chairman of the National Family Engagement Alliance (NFEA) to hear his thoughts on education today. In the clip below, Byron discusses how music and pop-culture play an important role in the lives of children and their families. For instant, did you know U.O.E.N.O., stands for “you don’t even know”?  As Byron points out in this video clip, understanding children and their world is a critical part in making content relevant and engaging for students today.
