Make It Mindful: An Education Podcast

Is the purpose of education career readiness? In this episode, hosts Seth Fleischauer, Lauren Pinto, and Komal Shah discuss whether our schooling system is doing a good job of preparing our students for their future careers. With the career landscape changing continuously, and simultaneously with the rapid pace of technological advances, the question has become, how can we prepare students for jobs that don't currently exist? We jump into the conversation about our personal experiences with K-12 and our careers, the difference between character building and career readiness, and alternative paths of learning.
