In this enlightening episode of the Digital Designs podcast by INJAZ, host Muhannad brings together American and Jordanian perspectives on education. We are joined by two special guests: Johnny Wells from Destination Imagination, who shares insights on the American education system, and Natalie Salayta, a risk management student at the American University of Madaba, who offers her perspective on education in Jordan.

This episode dives deep into how education systems in the U.S. and Jordan foster creativity, critical thinking, and the integration of technology in classrooms. We explore cultural influences on teaching and learning, and discuss how cross-cultural exchanges between Jordanian youth and MIT students could shape the future of education.
