Bildung, Pedagogy & Psychology

Meet Lene Tanggaard, professor of educational psychology (DK), and Gregg Henriques, professor of psychology (US).

There are overlaps between bildung (character development) and psychological development, between bildung-pedagogy and developmental psychology; together with Lene Rachel Andersen, Lene Tanggaard and Gregg Henriques discuss similarities and differences between bildung and psychology. They also discuss why psychology has acquired such a prominent role in business as well as in education today, in the West, why we are in a mental health crisis, and whether developmental psychology is even a good idea.

Nordic Metamodern episode with Zak Stein who is mentioned by Gregg Henriques: https://www.nordicbildung.org/podcast/comenius-education-in-a-time-between-worlds/

The Nordic countries did very well during the modern era. Their secret? An approach to education called bildung.

Metamodernity is a possible future where we take the best from the past and the present, locally and globally, and turn it into a meaningful future for all.

Welcome to Nordic Metamodern where we explore an achievable utopia and bildung around the globe.
