In this episode, Tom Arnett, Senior Fellow at the Clayton Christensen Institute, discusses the barriers to change in schools and systems. Arnett's interest in this topic stems from his experience as a middle school math teacher, where he observed the limitations of a system designed to standardize interactions.  

The conversation explores the need to move away from a "batch processing" approach and towards student-centered models of learning. Arnett highlights the challenges teachers face in addressing diverse student needs within the constraints of the current system.
