S1-E2 The Future of Higher Education | Jonathan Powers, Ph.D.

THE BIG QUESTION: What if, in the future, the goal of education was to make us better humans instead of better workers? Episode 2 looks at pre and post-pandemic higher education challenges and raises some pointed questions about how we got here, and how education might evolve in the future. Gina Clifford and Howard Fields are joined in this discussion by Jonathan Powers, Ph.D., an Assistant Professor of Arts & Humanities at Minerva University, and a champion of Active Learning.
