Catalytic Agency Ep. 2 - Eclipse, Evolve, and Escape
from A Slice with 'Dice · host Corey Alderdice
Students express dissatisfaction in different ways — some want more rigor, others long for belonging, while still others need a whole new context. Recognizing these intentionalities helps educators respond with precision rather than guesswork.In episode two of a six-part series, ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice explores the three intentionalities that shape student dissatisfaction: Eclipse, Evolve, and Escape. Through vivid examples, he shows how Eclipse students hunger for harder challenges, Evolve students crave affirmation and belonging, and Escape students need freedom from stifling environments. This episode emphasizes why listening carefully to dissatisfaction helps schools move beyond one-size-fits-all solutions and design responses that match what students are actually seeking.Learn more about the Catalytic Agency model of talent development.For additional thoughts from Corey, visit coreyalderdice.com.You can also follow him on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, BlueSky, YouTube, Instagram, and Threads.
