Magnet School Attracts Students to Careers in Health

The video "A Magnet School Attracts Students to Careers in Health, by the Edutopia Staff, explains how learning real world skills instead of just a lot of theory is highly beneficial.  The motivation and involvement of the students is exceptionally high.  The students can actually see why what they are doing is important and relevant.  Sometimes in the classroom, students say things like, "When am I ever going to need this?".  This particular magnet school takes kids into a health related workplace and treats their learning experience as if it were an internship.  I think theory is one thing, but actual experience is another.  This is a great way of educating our youth!
