Mark E. Weston Ph.D. is the education strategist for Dell Inc. Profound change in education—educating all students to dramatically higher levels of learning—is the enduring theme of Mark’s work. Achieving profound gains in learning involves a paradigm shift or revolution of the type described by Thomas S. Kuhn in his seminal work The Structure of Scientific Revolutions [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Structure_of_Scientific_Revolutions. Several education theorists including Benjamin S. Bloom, Seymour Papert Alan Bain have demonstrated that it is possible to achieve educational gains that significantly exceed a student's aptitude. In support of that goal,Mark has served in key positions in the private, public, and education sectors.
