562. Let Them Struggle: Jason Turner on Grading, Grit, and Guiding Without Answers
The Healthcare Education Transformation PodcastShow Notes
Jason’s back, and this time we’re going deeper. From his early classroom failures to his passionate critiques of the grading system, Jason Turner pulls back the curtain on what it really means to teach—not just art, but agency. We dig into how subjectivity can be a strength, why guiding questions trump easy answers, and how teachers can help students own their learning journeys without spoon-feeding them. Jason shares the philosophies that have shaped his unique classroom culture, where failure isn’t just tolerated—it’s part of the lesson plan. If you've ever wondered how to foster true critical thinking in kids, or what it looks like to hold space for students to grow at their own pace, this conversation hits home.🧠 Special Feature:Last but not least, if you would like to improve your critical thinking, decision making skills, metacognition, and independent thinking... join the Metacognition of Leadership Institute (M.O.L.I.) at: 👉 HETMOLI.com📢 General Podcast Info:🎓 New Course!
