Tony Wagner’s Creating Innovators: The Making of Young
People Who Will Change the World
“From the research, a pattern emerges—a childhood of creative play leads to deep-seated passions, which in adolescence and adulthood blossom into a deeper purpose for career and life goals. Play, passion, and purpose: these are the forces that drive young innovators.”https://vimeo.com/35403245
