Podcast Description
If you could flip just one thing to help our schools and public education thrive, what would it be? We know that the structure of schools and education were built nearly a century ago, based on a factory model - but the world is a profoundly transformed place. There are people and practices right now - across our nation - that are thinking about school in our transformed world. They are trying innovative and bold ideas that can potentially inspire others to be bold and innovative - even in a schooling system that may not always welcome change. In this podcast, we are working to find and elevate those ideas that could make all the difference for our children, families and schools. Join us to hear from educators with an idea, a vision, a revolutionary thought that could flip a switch and change schools for our changed world.Podcast hosts, LaShawn Bowser and Mike Chalupa. Technical Director, Justin Eames. Flip-Ed is brought to you by the City Neighbors Foundation, located in Baltimore MD. Check out our work in K-12 education at www.cityneighborsfoundation.org
