About this listen

Delve into the ancient foundations of education where learning was outdoors, experiential and learner led. Discover how societies, for thousands of years, thrived on implicit and accepted learning structures, emphasising the intrinsic nature of learning. Explore the shift to the development of a specialised education from around 5000BC that supported the emerging societies and nation states. Uncover the turning point where, in the last centuries we have transitioned from an experiential and learner led approach to a formalised pedagogical system. Discover some of the historical examples that have questioned the evolution of education and provide an insight into another way of teaching and learning. This episode goes beyond highlighting the flaws in the current system. It offers a compelling narrative on the need to draw inspiration from historical wisdom, fostering a more person centred holistic and experiential education model. As we navigate through the history of the education system, let’s discuss how embracing alternative approaches can pave the way for a brighter future in learning. Tune in and join the conversation on reimagining education for the better.
