What is the Future of Smart?
Manage episode 330481640 series 3357957
Disruption is difficult, but it is also an opportunity to move forward in new ways. The Future of Smart podcast is an opportunity for us to think in new ways about the challenges that we've been attempting to address in education. To go forward, we need to start by going back. Our education system is the way it is as the result of specific historical conditions that harnessed certain tendencies in our brains. Together these created a worldview that’s very hard to see outside of. And we’ve never really stepped back to ask whether organizing schools according to this worldview serves us well today. Join Richard Tagle and host Ulcca Joshi Hansen for an opening episode that explores why this is the moment for funders and others to focus on transformative systems change in education.
