About this listen

In this episode of The TechEd Clubhouse Podcast, I sit down with two powerhouses in human-centered education: Dr. Michelle Ament, Chief Academic Officer at ProSolve and Executive Director of the Human Intelligence Movement, and Arvin Ross, Co-Founder and Chief Culture Architect at ProSolve.Together, they break down what’s broken in traditional education and why now—more than ever—we must prioritize human skills like adaptability, resilience, creativity, and problem solving in an AI-driven world.🔍 Key Topics Covered:What immersive, play-based learning really looks likeWhy human intelligence matters more than knowledge memorizationThe skills you can’t teach from a textbook: grit, adaptability, and collaborationReframing failure as iteration and learning, not punishmentWhy our education system must shift from factory-model thinking to something more humanThe challenge: Stop asking what AI can do. Start asking what makes us human—and how to amplify that.🧠 Memorable Quotes:“If a kid can go through 12 years of school and graduate uninspired to learn, that’s the real failure.” – Arvin Ross“We’re moving past the Knowledge Age. Skills—not facts—are what make kids future-ready.” – Dr. Michelle Ament“If 30 people build a LEGO duck with the same six bricks and end up with 30 different ducks, you just taught 30 unique lessons.” – Dan Thomas🧰 Resources & Links:🔗 The Human Intelligence Movement📧 Michelle Ament: michelle@hi4ai.org📧 Arvin Ross: arvin@prosolve.com📱 Connect with Michelle and Arvin on LinkedIn🧪 Dan’s Takeaway:Forget Scantrons. This conversation is about helping kids become problem solvers, not parrots. If you're heading into summer thinking about next year—start with one simple shift: prioritize skills over standards. The world has changed. Our classrooms need to catch up.
