Ready To Redo Jo Yang

- Bildung
Hi I’m Jo Yang, and on Ready to Redo we’re mixing banter and lightheartedness with the juicy topic of educational re-doing. ‘Ready to redo’ unpacks how the traditional education system is failing us, and what to do moving forward. Join me for personal schooling anecdotes, and interviews with people who see the need for a redo. Humour enough to garner mild snorts can be expected.

53. Teaching 21st Century Skills w/ Victoria Ransom (Prisma Part 2)
Prisma isn't teaching kids WHAT to learn, but HOW to learn.
It's personalised, practical, teaching essential 21st century skills, and basically solving a lot of what i've ranted about on this podcast! We're joined by CEO and founder Victoria Ransom to discuss:
- How her own children inspired the creation of Prisma
- Why learners' academic outcomes have grown 150% (compared to the 'expected' rate) DESPITE not having grades and mandatory curriculums
- Why (and how) they carefully select Prisma mentors & coaches
And much much more of course!
