In this episode, we explore the power of experiential learning - why it matters, what it looks like, and how it transforms student engagement. From hands-on challenges to reflective conversations, we unpack how learning through doing helps young people make meaning that sticks.

Key themes discussed are:

  • Why experience often leads to deeper understanding than explanation

  • The role of emotional safety in learning environments
