Jane Rosenzweig, Former Director of Harvard College Writing Center

Former Director of Harvard College Writing Center, Jane Rosenzweig, sits down with Professor Judyth Sachs to explore why writing is far more than just an assignment to grade; rather it is a tool for critical thinking and intellectual discovery, that empowers students to develop their own voice and appreciate the value of thinking for themselves. Drawing on decades of teaching experience, Jane speaks about the role of human connection in learning, whereby teachers and peers go on the journey with a student, something that AI cannot replicate. Jane speaks directly to today’s leaders, urging the sector to slow down to reflect on the core capabilities of future graduates and to ensure technology supports independent thinking and the transformative cognitive struggle, rather than replaces it.
