EPISODE 03: ROAD TO CONTEMPORARY LEARNING THEORY

Episode 03: Road to Contemporary Learning Theory | 9 December 2025

Trent and Stephen discuss The Worldbuilding Workshop’s second chapter, “Road to Contemporary Learning Theory,” including:

• How they think about philosophies of education, pedagogical design, and what it means to be a “good” teacher;

• How to treat learning theory as active and actionable rather than static and inert;

• Why and how to center students as the primary beneficiaries of pedagogical design;

• And what it means to align learning objectives with activity objectives at a one-to-one ratio.
