Evolving Education: Featuring Dr. Katie Martin

Joshua StamperAspire Podcast

Katie Martin, Evolving Education, Aspire: The Leadership Development Podcast, #AspireLead, Teach Better

It’s time to leave behind practices that don’t best serve all learners and educators, and to prioritize what matters most: relationships, connection, purpose, flexibility, agency, and authentic learning. Education must evolve. Looking to learners will help us see what’s working, what’s challenging, and, ultimately, what’s possible. To ensure that all of those learners thrive, we’ll need to use insight from our own experiences, research from the field, and new tools and approaches to adapt our practices.

This week’s guest, Dr. Katie Martin, advocates for a much-needed shift to a learner-centered teaching model. Learner-centered education creates purposeful, personalized, authentic, and competency-based experiences that help students develop skills that empower them to learn, grow, and solve problems that matter to them and others. 

In this episode, we also discuss:

  • Instructional Practices that Enhance Essential Skills 
  • Changing Grading Practices
  • And Katie’s New Book, Evolving Education
