Cherry's passion lies with the development of learning communities that create and teach innovation. Cherry worked as a graduate research assistant with the Institute of Knowledge Innovation and Technology at OISE/UT. Cherry's vision for 2020 university classroom is one that implements innovation as its goal and knowledge building as its pedagogy. Students should come together to share ideas because it is through multiple perspectives (your ideas and those opposed to them) that you can advance knowledge. Furthermore, in order to innovate, learning must be made meaningful.
