Coconut Thinking Podcast: Pedagogies of encounter: A conversation with Adriano Di Prato | Benjamin Freud, Ph.D.

In this episode, I speak with Adriano Di Prato, founding partner of a School for tomorrow, a globally recognised educational network supporting students, teachers, and school leaders to thrive in a new world environment. Adriano is also the co-host of the popular podcast Game Changers. Throughout his work, he continues to commit to the emergence of young people under his care, actively promoting inclusion and learner agency, self-determined learning, growth mindset and holistic wellness of all students. In this episode we discuss:

  • How we can consider the whole world a classroom, no longer tied to the physical space of the room itself;
  • How every person, community, and organization (including schools) is on its own journey, with its own essence;
  • How we can continue to challenge a system in a world that has evolved and keeps evolving.
