- 4:00 PM - REINVENTING.SCHOOL Episode 5: “Curiosity and Individual Learning” with Howard Blumenthal and guests Yong Zhao and Susan Engel
This week, we present the first of several big-picture episodes for REINVENTING.SCHOOL. Our premise: the basis of all learning is nested in personal curiosity, and all learning is an individual adventure. That is, you can teach me from morning until night, but I won't learn much unless I am both curious and interested in learning more. Clearly, this small idea runs contrary to the way we have organized the structure of schools because it focuses not on society, but on the individual.
Host Howard Blumenthal welcomes Susan Engel, author of one of Howard's favorite books about curiosity, The Hungry Mind: The Origins of Curiosity in Childhood, and Yong Zhao is a Foundation Distinguished Professor in the School of Education at the University of Kansas, and a professor in Educational Leadership at the Melbourne Graduate Schooll of Education in Australia. As always, we will be joined by two students from the U.S. and elsewhere.
Please join us on Thursdays for the live recording, or visit www.reinventing.school for the recorded versions.

How you can participate in the Learning Revolution:
PRESENT: Submit to present a regular session on an education topic here. See the long list of potential strands here. If you present for a living and need to figure out an appropriate role in the Learning Revolution Conference, email admin@learningrevolution.com. |
HOST: Host a conversation here. Instead of giving a formal presentation, would you like to guide a group discussion on a specific topic? Hosted conversations are listed in the conference calendar and held in a virtual Zoom room with up to 300 participants. Or start a regular "show"--we're looking for individuals who might want to host a regular topic-specific "show" or interview series during and after the conference--email steve@learningrevolution.com if this is you! |
ORGANIZE: Organize your own mini-conference inside of the Learning Revolution conference here. You create a group for your topic, come up with a strand tag for your topic/group, encourage your audience (and/or others) to join learningrevolution.com and to submit topic-specific presentation proposals. |
SPONSOR: Help by sponsoring or supporting this event-- you can become a conference partner or sponsor, you can sponsor a special speaker or a show, or you can hold a commercial conference session. Email steve@learningrevolution.com. |
