The Tragic Cost of Academic Achievement

The Tragic Cost of Academic Achievement 

Here is my interview with Pam Roy, a meaningful education advocate and the co-founder of Straight-Up Impact & The Viktor Frankl Institute of America  

Striving for academic excellence & achievement is a common measure of success at many schools across the world  

Grades & test scores have become a default measurement & predictor of one's success later in life  

Few people actually question the legitimacy behind this arbitrary definition of success  

Even fewer people are aware of the REAL, TRAGIC COST of academic achievement  Which is why I launched this weekly live show, WHAT IS SCHOOL FOR  

Its purpose is to DISCUSS, DEBATE & DISRUPT #ducation so that we become educated about the unknown & undiscussed ramifications behind today's education model 

 --  

Excited to have Pam Roy on my show to discuss   

Mackenzie, a film that she co-produced, discusses the tragic costs of academic achievement   

Pam is an advocate for meaningful education 

She is also the co-founder of Straight-Up Impact + The Viktor Frankl Institute of America  

--  

QUESTIONS  

❓How is the industrial education model affecting teenage mental health 

❓What are the missing links in today's education 

❓What can we do about it 

❓What is meaningful education
