Dr. Aharon (Roni) Aviram is a philosopher of education and education futurist at Ben Gurion University in Israel.

We gather today around his thinking about education change and, in particular, the idea of replacing the rather anachronistic approach to disciplinary education with what he calls an Autonomy Oriented Education (AOE).

We talk about the approach, the pedagogy involved and the assumptions that need to be challenged to navigate through today's turbulent education landscape.

Rob Hopkins is a climate activist, community organizer and, most recently, the author of "From What Is to What If: Unleashing the Power of Imagination to Create the Future We Want".

In this conversation, we talk about his own journey into thinking about imagination, the deficit of imagination in today's distracted and distracting culture and how we can work with each other in our communities to nurture and incite imaginative action.

We often speak of imagination as something personal and difficult to see. In this conversation with Steve Paikin and John Challinor, however, we explore the idea of a political imagination: how to talk about it, where we've seen it in the past, and the challenges to nurturing a shared sense of imaginative energy in today's socio-political context. Despite the challenges, the conversation ends on a very hopeful note.

Steve Paikin is the host of TVO's flagship current affairs program, The Agenda with Steve Paikin. Arguably of the most trusted journalists in the province, Steve also contributes to the conversations through his weekly podcast #onpoli.

John Challinor is a town councillor in Milton, Ontario, one of this country’s fastest growing towns. In addition to public relations and communications work, John also has many years of journalistic experience.
