Learning Horizons

Learning Horizons - previously ‘The NAME it Podcast’ – started out as a ‘special series’ exploring the re-imagining of education. That series sparked a deeper interest, concern, and passion and became the impetus for making learning horizons (what the future of education and learning might become) the clear focus for this podcast.For over a decade now I have been asking questions and soaking up knowledge from teachers, educators, specialists, and countless others directly and indirectly involved in education about what is emerging, what could emerge, and what challenges are yet to be addressed.Increasingly, it appears that a re-imagining and eventual transformation of education (in the broadest meaning of the term) is one of the vital areas needing attention if we want to address the many interconnected global challenges facing us all. Am I saying it is THE issue everyone should be focusing on? No. But it is the one that I have committed myself to, because it overlaps with my personal values, experience and background in learning and development, adult learning and facilitation, psychology and human growth, and as a previous board member of an independent school.There are countless interconnected global challenges facing our world today. How are young people, future collaborators and leaders learning to become the citizens and communities we need to meet these challenges? Do we need small experiments or courageous leaps? or a combination of both?In each episode of Learning Horizons, my guests and I explore the emerging questions, challenges, and opportunities for re-imagining learning that are dawning on the horizon.Note: Episodes prior to Episode 21 are still titled 'The NAME it Podcast'.Logo Photo by Arthur Ogleznev on Pixels.comCover Photo by by Simon Matzinger on UnsplashEp 15 onwards Music: What's The Angle? by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.comPre Ep 15 Podcast Intro music: https://www.purple-planet.com
