The Discomfort of Teaching Differently: Challenging Expectations in the Classroom

from Agile Ed · host Dr. Lindsay Richardson and Dr. Ashley Thompson

How does the way we were taught influence the way we teach? In this episode of Agile Ed, we unpack the tension between traditional teaching ideals and modern, learner-centred approaches. Reflecting on the shift from 'sage on the stage' to active learning environments, we discuss how discomfort often accompanies change—but also drives innovation in education. Join us as we navigate the complexities of redefining teaching practices to truly facilitate learning.Attributions Stanovich, K. E. - How to Think Straight About Psychology. Film Reference - Lucy.
