Inspring work! There's so much here, Robin. I wanted to find a time to read this essay carefully. Your article appeals to the writer, coach, and teacher in me. (For 20 years, I taught at an independent IB school in Toronto. I hope I've never influenced anyone to cling to slide rules. Mostly, I taught English.) What stands out for me here is your emphasis on subject integration. That Renaissance spirit is so important! Kudos to you for amplifying it through your writing and service. And I agree, we find ourselves in a period calling for rebirth, a re-envisioning of our world. It's essential to support young people in cultivating emotional intelligence, empathy, courage, connection, and their innate potential to dream, in every sense of that word.
Thank you, Robin. I didn’t know you were once a teacher too! And yeah, that whole slide rule thing—traumatizing at the time. But years letter, when Texas Instruments came out with their handheld calculator, I felt like I got my vindication!
Thanks, Robin. I always learn so much when I have the chance to speak with young people in my workshops and programs at the Edge of Yesterday. They truly inspire me. Hope you might be inspired as well!
