OHIO
SCHOOL TRANSFORMATION AND DESIGN WORKSHOPS

Ohio Facilities Construction Commission, perhaps the most forward thinking school funding entity in the country, asked Frank to organize a series of conferences that has been offered twice annually for the past several years. These School Transformation and Design Workshops invite school Superintendents and other educational leaders from school districts across the state to participate in “hands-on” conferences to explore 21st century learning and facilities design, and apply it in their home districts.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS FOR TOMORROW

Frank initiated and now co-teaches this interdisciplinary course for educators and architects, offered jointly through the Graduate School of Education and the Graduate School of Design. The course intermixes presentations on learning research with “hands-on” application by participants to create new concepts of school.
