We get into: - The six habits every kid should leave school with - How standardized test hide the reality of public schools - The tension between teachers and school bureaucracies - What school choice offers that zip-code schools don't - Why Graham thinks kids fundamentally want to learn - How social pressure manipulates parents into propping up public schools - The ethics of running education experiments on kids - Student-directed learning vs. traditional structure - Why the future of education might be found in abandoned malls - What AI will and won't change about how kids learn Subscribe and ring the notification bell so you don’t miss a single video!
