"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire," William Yeats once wrote.

When the pandemic hit last year, many of us asked: "How do we hold meaningful spaces in the age of distance learning?" Couple months later, amid what has been called the "biggest ed-tech experiment in history," university educators dialogued: "Could this be an inflection point to reimagine higher education?" Prior to that, many educators have been asking: If we ultimately teach who we are, who do we have to be to foster values beyond the curriculum? Moreover, what would it take to cultivate "Compassion Quotient" (CQ), in addition to emotional (EQ) and intellectual (IQ) quotients, in our classrooms?

In an era of infinite content, how can educators create a context for the lessons that really matter? Across today's tumultuous social, political, economic, and environmental landscapes, how do we generate a different kind of consciousness to adequately address the pressing challenges of our times?

If these questions interest you, and you'd like to explore practical ways to amplify "Compassion Quotient" in a community of educators, we invite you to join our Pod!
