413 How to Future-Proof the Next Generation with Ted Dintersmith

Christopher Lochhead Follow Your Different™

If you've ever wondered why so many high school graduates seem ill-prepared for life in the real world, you aren't alone. On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we have a powerful conversation with education innovator Ted Dintersmith where the broken state of America's education system is laid bare, and a refreshingly practical vision for the future is explored. The discussion, centered on Ted's new documentary “Multiple Choice,” makes a compelling case for reimagining high schools as launchpads for life, not just college admissions. As Ted puts it, “Imagine if the purpose of school were to prepare kids for life instead of standardized tests.” It's a simple idea with revolutionary implications. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   Ted Dintersmith on the Cost of Standardization In today's high-pressure academic environment, schools have become laser-focused on standardized testing and college prep at the expense of real-world readiness. Ted Dintersmith is unflinching in his critique: “You hold people accountable to test scores. What are they going to do? They're going to do test prep. And I think it's damaging the futures of millions and millions of kids.” The impact is startling. Curiosity, creativity, and a sense of purpose are “crushed”, replaced by a relentless treadmill of test drills and application padding. What's more, society has paradoxically managed to “make people less capable at older and older ages.” Where previous generations might have been working, serving in the military, or starting their own ventures in their teens, many of today's young adults struggle to launch. The root, according to Ted , is a model of schooling stuck in the late 19th century, one designed for a world of rote tasks, not the dynamic, creative economy of today. “We've gone from 99% of the jobs being ‘here's your assignment, do it' jobs to basically close to 0%. Now we need people to create and invent their path forward,” Ted explains. But our schools, he laments, “put that into a meat grinder” that discourages independent thought and problem-solving.   Winchester's Innovation Center: Real-World Learning for Every Student Perhaps the most hopeful moment in the conversation is Ted Dintersmith's description of the Innovation Center in Winchester, Virginia: a school that's rewriting the rules. There, every student, regardless of their academic track, participates in hands-on, career-oriented learning. From carpentry and welding to health care and artificial intelligence, the center offers a real taste of practical skills and modern technologies. What sets Winchester apart is that this isn't a program for a select few. “Every kid is spending healthy amounts of their high school time in there, in the Innovation Center,” Ted shares, highlighting how this all-in approach bridges the gap between vocational and academic pathways. Importantly, college-bound students benefit, developing resilient, adaptable skills alongside their career-focused peers. “If a kid was at a school and they optionally took welding instead of AP chemistry, an elite college would turn them down… But here, because that's what all the kids do, they say, ‘Oh, well, they kind of had to do it. I can't really ding them for that,'” - Ted Dintersmith The results are telling. Students who might have once been written off as “suboptimal” are thriving. College applicants stand out with compelling stories of real achievement. And, perhaps most importantly, the community is united in supporting all students, regardless of their background or political leanings. “The school sends a message to the community that we respect all paths, and the community comes together irrespective of where they are in a very broken country, politically. Those political views don't matter. It's like,

Listen in as your host Just Nate and Greg talk with Dr. Matt Hortt about the amazing Library located in Greeley, CO. The Evolution of Libraries and the Link Facility: Dr. Hortt discusses the massive evolution of libraries over the past 25 years, moving away from things like stamped due date cards and VHS/DVDs towards online streaming services and specialized community resources. The new facility, located in Greeley, is called Link (Library and Innovation Center) and encompasses a massive 63,000 square feet. The design for Link was driven by community input that highlighted the need for skills-based development. Key Offerings and Resources: The Link facility combines many resources often found separately in other libraries into one space, including a recording studio, interactive children's areas, and a wood shop. Key features and services mentioned include:Meeting Spaces: The library offers various meeting spaces, including a boardroom (set up for streaming and public use), smaller 2-3 person spaces, and a flexible events center that can hold approximately 300 people.• Cost: All meeting spaces and core library services are free to the public, treated as prepaid services via tax dollars.• Media and Digital Access: The library still carries books (fiction, children's, graphic novels) but relies heavily on digital resources via apps like Hoopla, Libby, and Overdrive for streaming music, movies, audiobooks, and ebooks. Anyone living in the state of Colorado can obtain a library card.• Specialty Checkouts: Patrons can check out specialty items such as laptops, wireless hotspots, and state park passes (allowing free entry into state parks).• Maker Space: The maker space is industrial-grade, featuring equipment like laser cutters, 3D printers, UV printers (capable of printing on items like golf balls), and a sublimation machine. Staff with industry experience are available to teach classes and assist the public with projects.• Certifications: The library is launching a partnership with Snap-on tools (through NC3) to provide hands-on certifications to patrons related to tools and industrial skills.Operational Context and Challenges: The High Plains Library District is a government entity (a special taxing district) funded by property taxes (mill levy), supported by a strong tax base from gas and oil production in Weld County. Although they are exploring using an unstaffed model to become 24/7, they are not currently open around the clock. Dr. Hortt noted that the biggest current challenge is determining the library's next focus based on competing community ideas, securing continued government funding, and overcoming the lack of public awareness regarding the modern capabilities the library offers.To go to the Library, you can drive to 501 8th Ave, Greeley, COTo find out more about the Smalls or become a member, please check us out at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.thesmalls.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To contact Just Nate:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠justnate@thesmalls.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠—  Send in a voice message: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/thesmalls/message⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support this podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/thesmalls/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/thesmalls⁠⁠⁠⁠

Send us a textEver wonder what makes a community truly special? In this captivating conversation with Brian Pierce Gonzales (BPG), we discover the heart and soul of Winchester through the eyes of someone who chose to make it home 21 years ago. BPG takes us on a journey from his role as a Shenandoah University professor to his position on the Winchester Public School Board and his recent mayoral campaign. With refreshing honesty, he shares why traditional education often fails students and how Winchester is breaking the mold with its Innovation Center. "Not everybody's meant to go to college," BPG explains as he describes how students are earning credentials in trades, nursing, and firefighting alongside traditional academics.The conversation deepens when BPG addresses the challenge of teaching truth in classrooms, particularly regarding race and diversity. As Winchester ranks as the fourth most diverse school district in Virginia, he advocates for curriculum that reflects all students' experiences. "We have got to get to a place where we can teach these stories," he insists, recounting a powerful story about a student who questioned why their reading list featured only "dead white men."Perhaps most compelling is BPG's perspective on how education refuses to evolve while everything else in society changes. "We don't order our food from McDonald's in 2025 the same way we did in the year 2000," he points out, challenging the resistance to educational innovation. His passion for community, particularly Winchester's North Side neighborhood, shines through as he describes the pride and tight-knit culture that makes the city unique.Whether you're passionate about education, community development, or simply love hearing authentic stories about what makes a place special, this episode offers insight into how genuine connection and willingness to embrace change can transform both classrooms and communities.

The Innovation Hub, which will be a 25,000 square foot facility, aims to shift the traditional educational model and create innovative partnerships. He discusses the new vocational pathways being introduced at the central facility. The aviation program, in partnership with Franklin Special School District and Hawkins Flight Academy, allows students to obtain a private pilot license at 16. The program also includes a partnership with MTSU, providing up to 12 hours of college credit. The entrepreneurial program, in partnership with Thompson Caterpillar, offers two post-secondary programs: heavy machine technology and electrical power generation. These programs are designed to provide direct-to-work opportunities and matriculate into post-secondary institutions. The Innovation Hub also will focus on artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and hospitality, with a culinary arts program being the largest requested CTE program. The Innovation Hub will include a mock hotel lobby, a work-based learning site with Honest Coffee, and more. The project is expected to be completed by August 2026 for the start of the 2026-2027 school year.Jeremy Qualls wraps up discussing the importance of partnerships in workforce development, particularly in the Middle Tennessee region. He emphasizes the need for business partners with a desire for a return on investment in the form of a future workforce. He also mentions the need for more partners offering apprenticeships or internships, and the possibility of in-kind donations.

In this episode, Dr. Liz Fowler, former Deputy Administrator and Director of the Innovation Center at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, discusses the progress and challenges of U.S. healthcare reform, emphasizing the impact of the ACA, the shift to value-based care, and the need for systemic innovation to improve access, affordability, and quality. While the ACA has expanded coverage and improved access for individuals with pre-existing conditions, high out-of-pocket costs, care denials, and inefficiencies persist. Dr. Fowler emphasizes the need for mandatory value-based payment models to drive systemic change, focusing on team-based care, predictive analytics, and home-based interventions.
