211. Elina Eriksson - Transforming education, the case against nudging and unsticking our imagination

Elina Eriksson Associate Professor at KTH (profile) came on the podcast and we talked about the work she's been doing with her students at the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology around transformation and transition. We speak of nudging, counterfactional scenarios, university studies as learning not merely graduating, the paradigm shift, the new role of the teacher, voulnerability, how transformative questions can also come in the form of 'how are you?' We also speak about futures and what we can do to spark movement now, work Elina and her team has been doing with the Transition movement. Enjoy!
