In the past year, school leaders have faced a constant need to innovate and respond to rapidly changing conditions in their communities, our nation and our world. Now we’re all seeking ways to bring healing and strength to our schools in the year ahead. But what else can we learn from these challenging times, and what inspiration can we draw for the future of schools? Tim Fish, NAIS Chief Innovation Officer, is teaming up with Lisa Kay Solomon, author, educator and designer of strategic conversations for leaders, to host a new podcast that will probe the questions that matter most right now.
One thing is certain: The world will continue to be complex and ever-changing. This moment can inspire us to approach the future with resilience, curiosity and belief in new possibilities. NAIS New View EDU will support school leaders in finding those new possibilities and understanding that evolving challenges require compassionate and dynamic solutions. We’re engaging brilliant leaders from both inside and outside the education world to explore the larger questions about what schools can be, and how they can truly serve our students, leaders and communities. From neuroscience to improvisation, Afrofuturism to architecture, our guests bring unexpected new lenses to considering the challenges and opportunities facing schools. No prescriptions, no programs -- New View EDU is providing inspiration to ask new questions, dig into new ideas, and find new answers to the central question: “How can we use what we’ve learned to explore the future of what our schools are for?"

Episode 63: Building Academic Resilience
Available October 1, 2024
Resilience is a hot topic in education. We wonder whether our students display enough of it, how we can help them build it, and whether resilience alone is enough to help kids thrive in an increasingly demanding and uncertain world. But what if we need to expand our thinking beyond building resilience in individuals, and start considering a systems-based approach instead? That’s what Megan Kennedy is exploring with her team at the UW Resilience Lab.

In This Episode:
“I don't suggest that that's an easy thing. Collective impact never is. But I think that on the table would be a lot of conversations about the competitive nature of things. And it's interesting that we're in a time where the need to be collaborative and work across differences and come to the table and be able to manage our emotions when we have different perspectives and different ideas, because the issues are really challenging, is more important than ever.” (30:57)
