A Curriculum for Contribution to Humanity with Joanne McEachen
How do we create societies where we focus on our contributions not just narrow results? How might our schools become places where our learners can be who they are and not leave their culture at the gate?
In this episode, Louka speaks with Joanne McEachen about our roles as educators, leaders and parents to consider who we are, how we fit into the world, and how we contribute to humanity? We speak about self-knowledge, contributive curriculum and the role of new assessments and activate agency.
Joanne is an author, speaker and thought-leader and is the CEO/Founder of The Learner First. She is Edmund Hillary Fellow (New Zealand), is cofounder of NPDL (Global), and is on the Executive Team of Karanga: The Global Alliance for Social Emotional Learning and Life Skills. Joanne’s methodology re-focuses school systems through the eyes of their least-served learners, supporting systems to embrace and celebrate students’ cultural identities and individual interests and needs.
