Episode Synopsis
🎙️ Game Changers - Episode 6Guest: Dr. Jorge Valenzuela, Dr. Kim Abel, + Tim NeedlesHost: Arvin Ross + Dr. Michelle AmentPresented by: The Human Intelligence Movement🔍Episode Summary:Let’s stop pretending student disengagement is a mystery.We keep asking young people to sit quietly, follow directions, and consume information. Then we act surprised when they disconnect. In this Game Changers episode of Unscripted Intelligence, Dr. Jorge Valenzuela, Tim Needles, and Dr. Kim Abel surface the unavoidable truth behind engagement in schools today. Learning breaks down when students are treated as consumers, when creativity is optional, and when relevance is negotiable.From project-based learning and student entrepreneurship to creative advocacy and immersive virtual reality classrooms, this conversation exposes what happens when we stop designing learning for compliance and start designing it for humans.This is not about better tools.It is about the courage to admit what is not working.Made possible by our media partnership with FETC and CommunityEDU!🎙️About the Hosts:Michelle Ament and Arvin Ross come from different generations, experiences, and disciplines—but their unlikely partnership is built on mutual curiosity, deep listening, and a shared belief in the power of human connection. Their conversations are real, unscripted, and often challenging—in all the right ways.Dr. Michelle Ament Co-President of the Human Intelligence Movement & Chief Academic Officer at ProSolve.
