Click here for the HOMEWORK IN ADVANCE OF THIS GATHERING: Inspired by Joe Pounds, I am returning us to the EdSurge podcast for our March 2024 discussion inspiration. I am currently reading a book Joe suggested titled Metaphors We Live By, by Lakoff and Johnson. Combined with my recent listen of the EdSurge episode, "What If Myths, Metaphors and Riddles Are the Key to Reshaping K-12 Education?" and Joe's comments about the sport of "curling" as a metaphor for teaching, metaphors will be our topic this time. Episode description: Did the education theories that drive today’s schools and teaching practices get off track and do they need a reset — one that gets back to earlier days of oral storytelling? That was the argument of philosopher Kieran Egan, whose educational writings have recently gotten attention.
