Justen Infinito, Educational Studies
 
Justen and her students will design a public charter school from the ground up. Following the Guidelines from Indiana’s Department of Education, the seminar will research the types of curriculum in existing charter schools, work with architects to create structural models for such schools, and collaborate with Ball State University’s Center for Entrepreneurship to develop a business plan to establish and sustain an effective charter school proposal for a group of interested citizens. The seminar will work with teachers, parents, children, community leaders and the Office of Charter Schools to create the unique character of this “dream school.” The seminar will present its plan to its client and the public at a community forum.

Justen Infinito, Assistant Professor of Educational Studies, teaches courses in the foundations and philosophy of education. She has published on ethical self-formation and moral education, and serves as the Editor of Philosophical Studies in Education.
