Ian Jukes has been a teacher, an administrator, writer, consultant, university instructor and keynote speaker. Jukes is the Director of an international consulting group that provides leadership and program development in the areas of assessment and evaluation, strategic alignment, curriculum design and publication, professional development, planning, change management, hardware and software acquisition, information services, customized research, media services, and on-line training as well as conference keynotes and workshop presentations. Over the course of the past 10 years, he has worked with clients in more than 40 countries and made more than 8,000 presentations typically speaking to between 300,000 and 350,000 people a year.
Jukes has written twelve books, 9 educational series and had more than 100 articles published in various journals and is also the publisher of an on-line electronic newsletter, the Committed Sardine Blog, which is electronically distributed to almost 90,000 people in 60 plus countries.
But Ian Jukes is an educator first and foremost. His focus has consistently been on the compelling need to restructure our educational institutions so that they become relevant to the current and future needs of children. His rambunctious, irreverent and highly charged presentations and articles emphasize many of the practical issues related to ensuring that change is meaningful. As a registered educational evangelist, his self-avowed mission in life is to ensure that children are properly prepared for the future rather than society's past. As a result, his material tends to focus on many of the pragmatic issues that provide the essential context for educational restructuring.
