Episode 43: Always, All Ways: Multimodal & Collaborative Learning
Laura and Matt GrundlerSean Justice and Andrea Kantrowitz
Andrea Kantrowitz, this week’s guest, shared a quote from a fourth-grade student that sums up this episode: “I thought art was only about making pictures, but now I see it’s really about social studies, history and math, and how everything is connected.” From Kantrowitz: “I think the more you enable children to make these connections for themselves, the more it becomes their knowledge, and they are empowered by that understanding of the world.” Think about how you create truly in-depth learning and connections for students. In this week’s episode, the Creativity Department talks to artists-turned teachers Sean Justice and Andrea Kantrowitz about multimodal and collaborative learning. Listen in and learn how always using all ways of learning with students gives them the chance to apply all their understandings to address questions and solve challenges.
