Jean Piaget has suggested that the principal goal of education should be to create learners who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other in the past have done; but rather people who are creative, inventive, and inquisitive. This the essence of progressive education.

Beyond the Curriculum is a podcast dedicated to promoting progressive education. Each episode will feature an educator who will share practical approaches listeners can immediately use in their classrooms. Guests will explain how they promote creativity, innovation, and compassion.
