Jerome Bruner, an American psychologist, was interested in trying to implement ways of structuring information to help the millions of children that are a part of the school system. He argued that though the current system has its drawbacks, by using curriculum strategies like his Spiral Curriculum or Scaffolding allowed learning to be centered around the student and their particular aptitudes and interests instead of an inflexible curriculum that would no adjust well for students that did not match it. 

In this episode, Edward Thomas dives into Bruner's constructivist theories in learning, his three modes of representation, his curriculum strategies, and what the true purpose of learning should be.
