Ready To Redo

Prisma isn't teaching kids WHAT to learn, but HOW to learn.

It's personalised, practical, teaching essential 21st century skills, and basically solving a lot of what i've ranted about on this podcast! We're joined by CEO and founder Victoria Ransom to discuss:

- How her own children inspired the creation of Prisma

- Why learners' academic outcomes have grown 150% (compared to the 'expected' rate) DESPITE not having grades and mandatory curriculums 

- Why (and how) they carefully select Prisma mentors & coaches 

And much much more of course!

If a student sees an F on their test, they'll think many things. One of them being "I'm a failure"... How toxic is that? Today's episode is all about psychology, conditioning, and ways to UNDO a student's beliefs around grades, enjoy!

Traditional education just ain't working, and Prisma seems to have just the perfect solution. In part 1, I chat to Emily Veno, Prisma's head of curriculum on how they're revolutionising the idea of school (while also being completely online!)

We dive into into their practical, personalised curriculum, and how they teach skills like critical thinking, ethical decision making and collaboration... makes me want to be a student again :'(

Interested in revolutionising online learning? Then take notes in today's episode, with Primer CEO and cofounder Ryan Delk! Primer is an online education platform for homeschoolers aged 9-12, and they're honestly doing so many things right. They value creativity, problem solving, autonomy, and make kids the director of their own learning. This is honestly how I see the future of education, so hope you enjoy!

The grading system's failing us, so what alternatives do we have? Today we unpack the 'Art of Possibility' by Benjamin and Rosamund Zander, specifically around the concept of 'giving an A' - a VERY hot topic, so let's jump into it!

There's so much to unpack and misconceptions to dispel, so let's jump into it!

Are we born with learning disabilities (ie genetic), or are they created from our environment? Today we launch into the nature vs nurture debate and explain that....

**SPOILER ALERT**

IT'S BOTH.

It's the thing we all DESPISE in P.E class... yep the dreaded beep test.

Somehow my brain decided it was a great analogy for the education system, and why grading and forced learning SUCK.

So here it is, hope you enjoy!
