Our guest today is Daniel Pianko. Daniel is a Managing Director at Achieve and University Ventures. He has a long experience adviser and innovator in student finance, medical education, and postsecondary education.
In this episode, we talk about how people's focus is shifting from the inputs to the output of education, how personalization is a misplaced idea, and how to successfully invest in job-training for young people.
In our discussion, we cover:
02:06 - How people are increasingly focused on the outcome of education04:22 - Why personalized learning is a misplaced idea, the holy grail that will never be achieved. Team work is a better strategy to enhance learning10:34 - We describe an example of a charter school that transitioned successfully from a directive learning style to a more aspirational, student-led curriculum17:21 - Why Zoom schooling has just exasperated the equity challenges23:22 - How last-mile training may be the answer to pull things along27:45 - The concept that schools do job-training in a vacuum is part of the problem. Companies should pay for job training instead29:04 - The public school system should embrace last-mile job training to increase relevance and enrollmentWhere to learn more about Daniel:
