The Pushbutton Classroom: Education Predictions with Unprofessional Development
Manage episode 376706974 series 3468382
Patrick and Alex welcome their friends and hosts of the Unprofessional Development podcast, Tudisco and Mealey, to use their expertise as educators to evaluate predictions from the past about what teaching would be like in the future. We evaluate a series of predictions from 1900, 1927, 1931, and 1958. This conversation has far more focus on pneumatic tubes, eugenics, Mad Max, and ICBMs than you might expect.
Theme song is “Satellites” by Swenny.
