Trailer: Welcome to Beyond the Curriculum

Jean Piaget has suggested that the principal goal of education should be to create learners who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other in the past have done; but rather people who are creative, inventive, and inquisitive. This the essence of progressive education.

Beyond the Curriculum is a podcast dedicated to promote progressive education. Each episode will feature an educator who will share practical approaches listeners can immediately use in their classrooms. Guests will explain how they promote creativity, innovation, and compassion. This podcast is for those who want to make learning more meaningful and build environments of makers, thinkers, and world-changers.

So join me, Aaron Blackwelder, each week as I learn about the amazing learning going on in classrooms around the world. Lessons that offer opportunities that take learners beyond the curriculum.
