Ep 7: Michael Horn (Co-Author of Disrupting Class, Blended, and Job Moves) Why Tech Didn't Fix Schools: Applying Innovation and Disrupting the Factory Model.

Why Hasn’t Technology Transformed Education? For decades, we’ve heard that technology would revolutionize learning. So why are classrooms still operating like they did 100 years ago? In this episode, we sit down with Michael B. Horn, one of the most influential voices in education innovation, to uncover why schools have failed to truly disrupt learning—even with digital tools, and online learning at their fingertips. Inside the Episode: The mistakes of ed-tech: Why schools crammed technology into the old system instead of rethinking learning. The “Jobs to Be Done” framework: How schools should rethink what students actually want from education. The rise of micro-schools, personalized learning, and education choice—and what it means for the future of K-12. AI as the real game-changer
