Aiming to lower the high school dropout rate, Washor, a teacher, principal, writer, and speaker who designs and develops innovative schools, and Mojkowski, a former teacher, principal, and administrator who is a consultant to education and business organizations, describe an approach to teaching that keeps high school students engaged by providing some of their learning outside of school, such as through internships, travel, community service, work, entrepreneurial ventures, and gap years. They discuss the problem of student disengagement, why and how students drop out, and the role of student expectations; how to engage students in productive learning by understanding what constitutes success, what is important to learn to achieve success, and how schools should help students learn productively; types of opportunities and environments for providing productive learning in leaving-to-learn programs and tools for supporting them; and recommendations for interventions.
