Rodney Pierce, a middle school social studies teacher from Roanoke Rapids, narrowly defeated longtime incumbent Rep. Michael Wray in last month's Democratic primary. He campaigned with what he describes as an effort to "educate" voters about Wray's record in the N.C. House of voting with Republicans. Because no Republicans filed for the seat, Pierce will represent majority Black Warren, Halifax and Northampton counties in the legislature next year. Pierce spoke with WUNC's Colin Campbell about his goals to address economic development in an area he calls North Carolina's "Neglected Northeast," as well as how he mounted a successful primary campaign. He also discussed the challenges rural schools are facing and how his candidacy became a civics lesson for his students.

Social studies education in Connecticut public schools has been getting a major revamp. It's something we've covered on this program. This includes the statute requiring local Indigenous history that rolled out this year, and a statute in 2022 calling for Asian American and Pacific Islander studies, rolling out in the fall of 2025. The state legislature combined many of these mandates in 2021, calling for a "model curriculum." This curriculum should include Native American studies and AAPI studies, the bill stated, in addition to LGBTQ studies, climate change, financial literacy, military service and veterans, civics, media literacy, the principles of social-emotional learning, and racism. It was a long list and a tall order, and prompted the Connecticut State Department of Education to gather a group of experts on all of these fronts, and construct a new set of social studies standards. This hour, we hear from some of them and preview that document. GUESTS: Steve Armstrong: Social Studies Advisor, Connecticut State Department of Education; Past President, National Council for the Social Studies Tony Roy: President, Connecticut Council for the Social Studies; Social Studies Teacher, Bloomfield Public Schools Dr. Brittney Yancy: Assistant Professor of History and African American Studies, Illinois College Dr. Michael Bartone: Assistant Professor, Central Connecticut State University's Department of Literacy, Elementary, and Early Childhood Education Support the show: http://wnpr.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back! New for season 3, the podcast is leaving the studio in a new series called “On the Road.” Focused on academy alumni and where they are now, our mic is traveling to different states to check in with them. Not everyone is qualified to teach. The career path demands distinctive quality traits from the teacher, equally firm and gentle, doubly so for a middle school teacher. Joining us is a recent Class of 2017 graduate. A teacher in a public school system southeast of Birmingham, she is replicating the teacher-student mentorship modeled for her as a student at the academy in hopes of creating meaningful relationships with her students.Hosted by Dr. Brad Schultz and Amanda Price, this …. is Mustangs Unbridled.

In the first interview of our Back to School season, OEA member host Kayla Potter interviews middle-school Social Studies Teacher, Malik White. Kayla and Malik, an early career educator, discuss what it has been like to be a new teacher. Malik's first year of teaching occurred during the 2020-2021 school year and most of the year was in comprehensive distance learning (CDL) due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In his second year, he had the challenge of transitioning everything from online to in-person teaching. Malik found that his relationship skills and purposeful rapport-building style led to success in both CDL and in-person settings. Some of these strategies include asking students questions, holding classroom circles, and generally normalizing conversations so students feel more comfortable sharing about themselves. Malik also witnessed the benefits of being an authentic educator and showing your students your true self. Kayla and Malik also discuss ideas for how to establish a healthy work/life balance (hint: it's okay to say “no”). Some tips Malik had for new teachers include: finding joy in the profession, being able to laugh at yourself, being unafraid to make mistakes, giving yourself grace, and setting realistic goals. And identify which school printers are least busy!    Resources: OEA New Educators of Oregon Network 'Authentic' teachers are better at engaging with their students - Science Daily Six Paths to More Authentic Teaching - Faculty Focus
