Insights Into Education Podcast

American education is caught at a cross roads. While there is no shortage of discussion about how to educate children moving forward, much either lacks historic insight into the fundamental building blocks that got us here, or is based by policies funded and dictated by private interests. In Insights Into Education Dan and Ed informally discuss the concerns of parents and teachers about the state of American education. They focus on what they have collectively learned in almost 100 years of experiences as teachers and administrators. Dan and Ed believe education must be focused on each individual child. They share a wealth of knowledge about experiential education. As parents, and having dealt with parents' concerns on many levels, they share insights into what parents need from teachers and the education system.

    The Challenging Impacts of Transformative Events like COVID and AI on Education

    We are still recoiling from the COVID pandemic which killed over a million Americans and damaged millions more. Years before, many scientists warned that we were not prepared for a major epidemic. But instead of listening to the scientists, our leader ignored the facts. Stupidity, not ignorance, overshadowed reality. In the last decade, scientists and others have warned us about an alien intelligence which will completely reorder our world. They advised that this new AI must be tightly regulated and controlled because of its power and its potential to be misused. During COVID, teachers were on the front lines of working remotely with our kids in impossible circumstances. Dan graphically describes just how difficult that was. He and Ed draw an analogy between our failure to prepare for COVID and our failure to retool our public schools to deal with AI.

    Re-Imagining Public Education: The Search For New Models

    We are at the stage in the development of our species where we must break from the assumptions and practices of the past. This is the first time in human history that an almost total redirection of our course is required. Our children must be prepared for this new reality which is already deeply rooted in our operating systems. Educational leaders are reimagining and redesigning the way we prepare our youth for their future. These insights podcasts introduce individuals and school systems that are leading the way to prepare humanity for the deep cultural shift that is occuring as we integrate A.I. into almost all facets of our daily lives.

    Schools For The Future

    What is the real message when we say “Schools for their future not our past”? Some dynamic schools are currently working on redefining their educational programs and focusing on the skills and approaches necessary to prepare students for a future where they can collaborate with Alien Intelligence. If today's students will have the skills they need to be effective, educators, parents, boards of education, and the public need to understand the changes that  must happen as we redefine our lives, our ways of thinking, and our educational programs to adapt to this technological age.

    Rosemary Agneessens - The Leadership We Need

    Rosemary Agneessens is a proven community organizer and leader. She joins Dan and Ed for a refreshing and much-needed discussion of where we are now and where we are going. The pandemic will pass. Many of the players at the state and national level will try the old way of holding power. They will face energized leaders who see a clear path to the future. Rosemary has stayed focused on the battlelines, cherishing small victories that open the paths for our students and help build our states and nation. She sees a time in the near future when those who want their children and communities to have great education programs will lead the politicians. A time when going hat-in-hand to beg legislatures for funds to a time when all understand that to have a great nation we must have great schools. What we are learning in states like Arizona, and what Rosemary shares, is vital information for leaders everywhere.

    The Impact of Slaying Goliath

    Dan and Ed are deeply impressed with Diane Ravitch’s critically acclaimed new book. Inspired by her insights and leadership – and the past and present corruption of public education by people who call themselves reformers, but are really deformers –  they begin an unscripted and very frank dialogue which includes thoughts from Ed’s new book about the future of education and how we need to evolve our educational system.
