Interdisciplinary Learning for the Real World
Episode 2 - Interdisciplinary Learning for the Real World
Do you see the world through the lens of the individual subjects you learned at school? Breaking things up to consider the math side, then the science aspects, then the language arts angle? In most parts of our life, we view the world from an integrated approach; why, then, are schools so stuck in subject-specific teaching, and how can we break free from these confining structures?
In this episode we will talk to several educators who use interdisciplinary teaching to enrich their students’ experiences, and consider why this is crucial for effective climate change education.

The Current State of Climate Education
Welcome to Reasonably Radical! In our first episode, we dive into the current state of climate change education in Canada. Are Canadian students learning enough about climate change to become informed voters who will be resilient to the changes we can anticipate and the ones we can’t? Spoiler alert: not yet! We hear from a range of guests who help illustrate what kids are learning, and more importantly, what’s missing. No matter what your role is in the education system, join us and get ready to become a climate change educator!
