Manage episode 459986379 series 2339116
In this episode of the Disrupt Education Podcast, Peter and Alli dive into the transformative power of reimagining education. Inspired by Marc Isseks' insights from his book Captivate, they explore the “blank page” exercise—a strategy for educators to reset and innovate when feeling stuck. They discuss building grassroots movements by fostering small, creative tribes within schools and the importance of self-reflection for growth. From personal stories of classroom resets to skydiving metaphors, the hosts highlight the balance between guiding students and letting them learn through experience. They also touch on the evolving role of AI in fostering curiosity and empowering student-driven learning. As 2025 begins, this episode challenges educators to reflect, collaborate, and take bold steps to captivate their classrooms. Tune in for practical tips, inspiring anecdotes, and a fresh perspective on disrupting traditional education!
