Manage episode 514680476 series 3693531
Chapter 7 of 10.
Host Thembi Duncan speaks with education expert Dr. Charles Reigeluth, author of Vision and Action: Reinventing Schools through Personalized Competency Based Education, about the ways that the structure of a school needs to change in order to transition from the Industrial Age educational paradigm to a paradigm that prepares learners for the Digital Age.
Dr. Reigeluth explains how small, collaborative, teacher-led schools that share administrative duties provide a strong alternative to the top-down bureaucracy of the Industrial Age education model.
This episode features Orly Friedman and Nikita Khetan from the Red Bridge School, as well as Jim Wartman and Nick Ryan from the Minnesota New Country School.
