Education as expanding dialogue – Rethinking learning with Professor Rupert Wegerif
Professor Rupert Wegerif, Cambridge education scholar and dialogic-learning pioneer, discusses how teaching children to reason together reshapes classrooms and thinking. He describes the Thinking Together approach, why group work often fails and how simple dialogue ground rules help. The conversation spans classroom practice, culture as a living tradition, double dialogue with disciplines, and the implications of AI for dialogic learning.
