TeachLab is excited to introduce Subtraction in Action, a new series about the positive impact that subtraction can have on school communities. How do we make school simpler? How do we give teachers and students some room to breathe? Can we clear out the marginal to focus on the most important things?

For this new series of episodes, we’ve been talking to teachers, school leaders, and design experts from around the country about what we can take away from schools - to free up people to focus on the essential.
