The future of education is a hotly debated topic, one that was only exacerbated by the COVID pandemic. Parents, educators, and policy makers are all asking themselves what  students need to learn to compete and thrive in a rapidly changing future.

One company trying to solve this is Synthesis School, an online school spun out of Space X that focuses on helping children learn how to think and solve problems in novel ways.

My guests today are Chrisman Frank, one of the cofounders, and Ana Lorena Fabrega, the Chief Evangelist. And in this discussion we talk about the origins of Synthesis, why games are such a fantastic modality for facilitating learning, the importance of competition in learning, and much much more.
