A Revolution in Education – Season 2
Episode 13: Creating a Learning Community "in the Sky"!
My friend Cath Fraise is ALWAYS creating, making, and dreaming of how to bringing learning to youth with a focus on their becoming agentic, self-directed agents of their own lives. Several years ago she created Workspace Education, which Chris went to see and then was blown away by. And since has been assisting and supporting others who want to create their own local version of workspace in their communities, through 100 Roads. Now she is building a Workspace in the Sky, a virtual co-learning community space for youth to be self-directed in their learning, find peers to work and learn with and from, offer multiple avenues for learning, support youth with ongoing advising and coaching, AND support parents in how THEY can best assist and support their children to be self-actualized. Amazing, amazing, amazing.
In this episode, Jim and Chris talked with Cath about why she does what she does (the 1st half of the podcast, recorded in late December 2020) and then Chris catches up with Cath in early June 2021 to see how her plans are taking shape to create her new learning space.
It all feels like "Alice in Wonderland" to Chris. In such a good, remarkable, and amazing way. Listen!
