If you have children (or have ever been a child yourself) you may have wondered whether education could be better.

A couple examples:

❌ Mistakes are when learning happens. Yet grades punish mistakes. 🤔

🤝 Situated and social learning experiences are extremely powerful and meaningful. Yet much of education is theoretical and individual. 🤔

So… why does much of our educational system work against what we know about learning? And could there be a better way? 🤔

Luckily for you, Ways We Learn is back with our latest episode: “Nerding Out on Education,” where we examine educational best- and worst-practices with @Dr. Michael Kolodziej. He’s the founder and Lead Nerd at @Instructional DesigNerd, Director of Educational Program Development for the @University of Phoenix, and a self-professed “smart kid who hated school.” Michael went from a childhood spent in the principal’s office for his mistakes to an adulthood spent in principals’ offices making education better!
