In a podcast dated, March 10, 2014, Alan November, with **November Learning, spoke with Ewan McIntosh about, "Shifting the Learning Ecology."
The two begin with a discussion about Ewan’s work with design thinking for developing a new learning ecology within an International Baccalaureate school in Barcelona, Spain.
This leads into a conversation about the emotional process teachers go through in relinquishing some of their established control within the classroom.
Finally, they discuss the role of school leaders and the key shifts they must make in order to jump into the design thinking process within their schools.
