This is an interesting read. I do believe that education needs an overhaul and it should be centered on the individual's innate curiosity and what their strengths, weaknesses and goals are. Allowing one to explore the world is part of this journey, and who knows, maybe they will discover something that they may not have otherwise thought of.

how great would it be if we developed models and ACTUALLY supported educators in brining real world examples and issues into the classroom, as the curriculum? Not just saying β€œdo PBL” and then check a box.

I love this so much. The things that I remember most about school are all the opportunities we had outside of the classroom that applied our learnings to our lives, exactly what you're saying here. πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ
