13. Micro Episode - The Seder Reveals 21st-Century Learning Techniques

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Consider these characteristics of learning that contrast 20th and 21st-century approaches to education.

 

1) Do we work better alone or in collaboration?

2) Should learning be one-size-fits-all or differentiated?

3) Does time define learning or does learning define time?

4) Is learning for a test or for life?

5) Should it be structured or open and flexible?

6) Should we focus on content or process?

 

Interestingly, these same "newly discovered" characteristics of learning are embedded in the Sederim developed many years ago by our chachomim. Join us as we delve into the timeless lessons of the Seder and discover how it reveals valuable techniques for 21st-century learning.
