Episode 060: The QUESTion Class Interview with members of the Youth Advisory Council

In this episode, we are speaking with students who took the QUESTion Class when they were in high school and have formed a Youth Advisory Council to support the creation of a new subject field in education. The QUESTion class is a semester-long course designed by the Open Future Institute to support learners in the exploration of big life questions in five areas: Choice, Purpose, Fearlessness, Interconnectedness and The Bigger Picture. We’re also joined by the Founder and President of the Open Future Institute, Gerard Senehi. The Student Ambassadors speaking with us today include Katery Castelan,  Charlos Do, and Tyreik Skelton.

Gerard is Founder and President of the Open Future Institute, about his work with the QUESTion Project.

Katery  is an ambassador for the QUESTion Project and a self-made fashion designer. She has a keen passion for writing and philosophy. Her mission is to use her platforms in order to give a voice and pave a way for the youth of tomorrow. 

Besides being a QUESTion Project Ambassador, Charlos is a personal trainer and aspiring fitness influencer.  His goal is to not just get people into shape but to inspire them to use fitness to help them find a new purpose 

Aside from being a QUESTion Project ambassador, Tyreik has many interests, but his favorite one is making music. He loves being able to assist people in any way that he can, including helping them speak their truths.

Here’s what we are thinking:

• How might inquiry, like that found in the QUESTion class, support your learner-centered transformation work?
