Is Disruption the New Normal for Education?

Our current education system is built on the Industrial Revolution model and focuses on IQ, in particular memorization and standardization, and a one-size-fits-all model.

The pandemic offers a chance to reflect on habitual established processes and methodologies and question how they can develop the future of learning in education and the workplace.

The education transformation is going to start with those who can let go of what it traditionally means to educate, teach, and acquire knowledge.

A key point in the mindset shift will be to notice the difference between knowledge acquisition tasks and activities vs. learning experiences.

In our twenty second episode, our guests discuss how the pandemic has disrupted our education model and the various emerging opportunities causing the world of education to experience a profound and attempt to answer the following questions:

1- What might the lessons of the Pandemic be for a learning revolution?
2- How do we re-instilling curiosity and persevere with creating new models?
3- How do we unlearn the inertia, triggers, and cues of our formal education?
