In this episode, we explore how one Jesuit school community has created space to infuse innovation and creativity into their learning community. We welcome Dr. Rinat Levy Cohen, the Director of Innovation at Fairfield College Preparatory School, who was brought on to establish and lead the McLeod Innovation Center, spearheading the school’s innovation initiatives.
Under her leadership, the center has transformed into a state-of-the-art hub for technology and creativity. Rinat has overseen the acquisition of advanced equipment, including digital fabrication tools like 3D printers and laser cutters, film and video production gear, and the creation of specialized spaces such as an e-Sports Lab and a Virtual Broadcasting Studio. We explore how this commitment to mission-based innovation serves to create experiences that lead to deep and lasting learning for students
