Send us a textFrom my own shift from the world of engineering to the vibrant classrooms of teaching, I've experienced firsthand the electrifying impact of project-based learning (PBL) on both engagement and academic success. In our latest episode, I peel back the layers of this educational revolution, revealing how PBL not only boosted student performance but also increased attendance and diminished disciplinary issues.

Maureen's story is a testament to the power of aligning teaching with passion and creating an educational culture that leaves a lasting impact.We then cast a spotlight on the groundbreaking Microschool Grant Program with Getting Smart, exploring how it's fueling small schools in underprivileged areas to blossom and innovate. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the symbiotic relationship between education and business partnerships, and the ripple effect of students who return to their alma maters as educators, keeping the legacy of a nurturing the system alive.

Hello everyone! Last week, we launched episode 300 with my talk with the wonderful Joe Dombrwoski! I cannot believe we are at episode 300 of the Teach Me, Teacher podcast. Truly astounded by their support everyone has had for the show over the years, and am grateful for every guest who has ever come to the show. In this episode, we continue talking about authenticity, but also stray into how accurate of a show Abbott Elementary is, Goats, and of course, the big topic of changing education for the better.  Joe Dombrowski—Mr. D—comedian extraordinaire—has returned to Teach Me, Teacher and has done so with full force! We cover A LOT in this episode, but mainly, we discuss why authenticity in your life matters. What it can do for you. What doors it can open…  Joe Dombrowski (aka Mr.D) took the world by storm in 2017 with a viral April Fools' Day spelling test prank that landed him multiple appearances on the Ellen DeGeneres show. Don't get it twisted though! It takes at least 20 years to be an overnight sensation! Joe has been doing stand up comedy since he was eight years old in his third grade talent show. He's never stopped! Since Joe rise to fame, he has been traveling the globe with his stand-up comedy which often highlights his crazy life as an elementary school teacher. When he's not getting creative on screens and stages, Joe spends his time in Seattle, Washington producing his podcast “Social Studies” where he recaps absolutely insane stories from teachers all over the world.   This episode is sponsored by Heinemann—the leading publisher of professional books and resources for educators—and their new book, A Teacher's Guide to Mentor Texts, Grades K-5 by Carl Anderson. Using mentor texts in the writing classroom can be a real game-changer for teachers.  But how can we help teachers find mentor texts on their own, analyze them for teaching points, and use them effectively in the classroom? Carl Anderson's newest book offers a five-step plan for improving student writing using mentor texts. Over 23 classroom videos, annotated samples, student samples, and online resources bring the content to life and give teachers the confidence to find and use mentor texts as powerful teaching tools.

How are schools across the nation faring now that school is back in session? Is life in school back to normal or are their still looming effects caused by the pandemic? We've all heard of teacher and staff shortages and parents pulling kids from public school because of curriculum issues. It seems, schools are stressed.According to a 2020 survey conducted by teachers' union, the National Education Association, 55% of educators are thinking about leaving the profession earlier than they planned. But its not just teachers, according to the teachers union everyone from janitors to bus drivers to cooks are looking for a way out.5 Things Sunday host James Brown sat down with USA TODAY education reporter Alia Wong and Sydney Boyega, a Texas teacher who inspired this episode, to try to understand what is happening in schools.According to Boyega, there is a lot of misconceptions about teachers. She said people think because they went to a K-12 school that teaching is easy. She compares that to saying you can direct the movie 'Star Wars' just because you've watched it a couple of times.Follow James Brown and Alia Wong on Twitter.For more on the teacher shortages and how education in being impacted read: Teacher shortage 2020: Charts, maps show the data by state.Biden, job search companies partner to take on teacher shortage.Schools wouldn't have teacher shortages if they helped, supported them - USA TODAY.Middle school science teachers often struggle with shaky scientific knowledge.

Melissa Dean is a classroom educator with over 20 years of teaching, coaching and mentoring experience, having taught all the way from K to Grade 12. She is passionate about assessment and evaluation, and education reform, particularly in the area of mathematics. When she is not teaching, she can be found running, writing, drinking coffee or working part-time at a local bakery specializing in sourdough bread. She is known for her infectious laugh and ridiculous jokes. Most recently, she is an author who's recent release, Unravel School, brings to life the idea of leveling up and disrupting the experience of learning. Key Takeaways: Now is the time to dream big in education. We sometimes need to be pushed to a higher level of success because we are stuck in the starting blocks. Trust and respect is key for assisting in career decisions. We need to keep our ears open for progress by truly listening. Don't lose sight of the human side of education. Education should be open spaced, collaborative areas where students are supported as needed at the level they need. We need to think about how what we do impacts who we are. Remember to always presume positive intentions. Listen to understand instead of waiting to respond.

Formal education became widespread only as recently as the end of the 19th century, as a way to train people for jobs created by the boom in industrialization. Today, with most of those jobs phasing out, world politics radically changing at both the individual and macro levels, diverse cultures and disciplines increasingly coming together as communities, and the pandemic catalyzing a global move to predominantly e-learning, it may be time for us to rethink formal education. In this podcast, Dr. Rosemary Sage and Dr. Riccarda Matteucci discuss their book How World Events are Changing Education and talk about education in their day, what it has become for Gen Z, and lessons from pockets of the world where robots, online learning, and the science of human interest have been accounted for in education programs.

The education industry, like so many others right now, has seen its traditional business model flipped on its head amidst the chaos of the global pandemic. Many institutions are switching to online delivery for the safety of their students losing revenue generated by ancillary services like room and board. Simultaneously, there's an increasing prevalence of online certifications and other alternative training programs that could pose a challenge to the long-standing model of higher ed. Dr. Wei-Chung Wang breaks down how these various factors affect those in higher ed, those that are considering furthering their education, and those who are in charge of hiring graduates through the lens of both professor + administrator at an American college and as a manager in a growing business . --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
