Episode notes
Education As Leading Out
- Education can be reconceptualized as leading out (ex-ducere) rather than simply instilling facts (educare).
- This frames learning as exposure, companionship, and guided displacement of perspectives.
Use Experiential Assignments
- Ask students to leave the classroom and engage materially with their environment to provoke firsthand knowledging.
- Accept performances of engagement as valid evidence and avoid narrow numeric grading of subjective experience.
Reviewing As Conversation
- Peer review can be a conversation, not just judgment, especially for work critiquing the review system itself.
- Joining the dialogue can expand a paper into a larger collaborative project.
