Rethinking Creative Learning: Education Reform with Rée the Interdisciplinarian

Lauren's Best

Rée is a creative producer who develops and produces interdisciplinary projects impacting the next generation.

As a “content” storyteller, not tied to one medium over another when it comes to creating compelling narratives, Rée has journeyed from educating to filmmaking and now into podcasting with her show Homeroom - a heartfelt journey through the evolving landscape of learning, driven by her ambition to reimagine how we approach teaching and learning.

As an educator who has personally felt let down by the education system, a parent exploring best practices for her child, and a professional with a wealth of knowledge in education, Rée channels all these perspectives to explore education reform and creative learning.

Rée strongly believes in the importance of an interdisciplinary approach in education, emphasizing that real-world situations require a blend of skills and knowledge and education should reflect this diversity. She suggests neurodivergence is a common human condition, challenging the traditional notions of neurotypicality as a patriarchal concept.

This episode encourages you to embrace the winding road of lifelong learning and self improvement.
