About Lynn Barendsen

Experience
Senior Project Director
Jan 1997 — Present · Cambridge, MA, US
I have been involved with the Good Project since 1996. The Good Project is a large scale effort to identify individuals and institutions that exemplify good work – work that is excellent in quality, socially responsible, and meaningful to its practitioners – and to determine how best to increase the incidence of good work in our society. With Howard Gardner and the rest of the Good Project team, I have been working to envision and ensure the legacy of our 20 years of work: its impact on educational research, in the classroom, and within the broader conversation (among educational organizations, social movements and changemakers) about developing responsible, caring and balanced youth. Current research is focused on practices of good work (work that is excellent, ethical and engaging), notions of quality, and good collaboration.
