They Never Ask the Right Questions (E1)

In episode 1 of "They Never Ask the Right Questions" we delve into the woefully inadequate English translation of the French word "apprivoiser" - according to Tom “It's THE most important part of the learning/teaching process". Antoine de Saint-Exupéry used the word in the original text of The Little Prince; translated to "tamed" in English, the power of connection, and responsibility to another, and the opportunity to sit beside and trust in another is lost, as is Saint-Exupéry's intent. Susan, Tom, Rich, and Cam discuss if the missing piece in a "renovation" of public education is an intentional shift to lifelong connection between learners.
