Rethinking Time, Personalizing Learning, and the Role of the Arts in an AI World

What if meaningful innovation in schools isn’t about doing more, but about rethinking how we use what we already have?

In this episode of The Innovator’s Mindset Podcast, George Couros sits down with Heidi Domescik and Daniel Forrester from Holy Innocents’ Episcopal School to explore how they are reimagining professional learning by making it more personal, relevant, and responsive to the needs of educators.

The conversation also explores one of the most valuable resources in any school: time. Rather than continually adding new initiatives and expectations, how can schools rethink the way time is used so educators have greater opportunities to learn, collaborate, create, and do work that truly matters?

Heidi and Daniel also discuss the powerful connection between the arts and innovation, and why creativity, expression, and distinctly human ways of thinking may become even more important as artificial intelligence continues to reshape education and the world around us.

This conversation is a reminder that innovation isn’t always about adding something new. Sometimes, it starts by looking differently at what we already have.
