We explore the daunting challenges faced by early-career teachers as they strive to teach young children to read. Despite their formal education, many feel ill-equipped to meet the diverse needs of their students, especially with the added complexity of the science of reading. LaMonica Williams, the Senior Director of Programs and Services at Teaching Matters, joins us to share how her organization is empowering these teachers with the necessary skills and resources to tackle these challenges head-on.

Teaching matters. Because we have our hope set on the living God, we are to watch out lives and doctrine closely. From 1 Timothy 4 that we are to teach the truth, teach what's important, and teach with integrity.

On this special episode of the Learning Can't Wait podcast, we take a brief detour from our Rural Education Miniseries to sit down with Arne Duncan, former Secretary of Education and current Managing Partner of Emerson Collective. Arne brings a wealth of experience from his time at Chicago Public Schools and the Obama Administration, offering unique perspectives on what officials at local, state, and federal levels are missing in our education system. With a passion for creating stable, safe communities for children, Arne discusses fighting chronic student absenteeism with “relentless outreach,” the intentional use of technology in the classroom, and addressing the nationwide teacher shortage with an educator-centered approach. Known for successfully bridging political divides, Arne encourages us to see education as a nation-building goal. He also shares his best advice for new educators and extends a heartfelt thank you to those leading the future of our democracy in the classroom. For further reading, check out Arne Duncan's book: “How Schools Work: An Inside Account of Failure and Success from One of the Nation's Longest-Serving Secretaries of Education.”

We hope to be a church that is making disciples—life-long learners and followers of Jesus.  We began this series, called “Disciple Like Jesus,” to more deeply look at exactly how Jesus made disciples.  After inviting people to follow, Jesus spent a significant amount of time teaching.  His primary way of teaching was through parables. How might we put ourselves in a position regularly to truly listen to Him teach us?

LaMonica Williams is mother to two children and the Director of Program, Pre K - 2 Division at Teaching Matters, a national professional learning organization dedicated to helping teachers and school leaders develop the skills they need to close the gaps created by a radically unequal education system. La Monica's expertise is in elementary literacy and she also manages the work of Teaching Matters to support educators and train them to use data to advance students' reading and writing abilities.   She joins us to discuss how Teaching Matters is creating a more equitable education landscape.

With the many disruptions to learning as a result of the pandemic, parents and teachers observed that children's educational progress slowed. And, there is evidence of increased developmental delays in the "COVID generation." So, what is being done to ensure children get back on track after pandemic learning loss?   LaMonica Williams, Director of Programs for Early Reading at Teaching Matters, joins Marti & Erin to discuss efforts to support teachers and parents in addressing the learning losses brought on by school closures and online learning. She highlights the important work Teaching Matters is doing to help teachers, parents, and children. Tune in to learn more about pandemic learning loss and efforts to help children recover!   WHAT WILL YOU DO TO HELP YOUR CHILDREN MAKE UP FOR LEARNING LOSSES DURING THE PANDEMIC? How will you ensure your children have the literacy skills they need? What ideas do you have for how you can activate the six "levers" with your own children?   WANT TO LEARN MORE? ❉ PARENTS' ROLE IN EARLY CHILDHOOD LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT. Dr. Susan Outlaw shares practical tips for how to support your child's optimal language development in this episode of Mom Enough. She also talks about how to know if your child's language development is on track or if a professional language evaluation, and possibly extra support or early intervention, might be needed to help the child reach necessary milestones.   ❉ EARLY LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT: INTEGRATING LANGUAGE LEARNING INTO EVERYDAY LIFE. Long before children enter formal education, they are constantly learning from parents and other caring adults who interact with them through language stimulation. Before they even begin to speak, babies are making sense of language, building a vocabulary and developing conversational patterns. So, to make sure our children have this important foundation, do we need to be fluent in English, have a house full of books or know formal teaching strategies? Dr. Alisha Wackerle-Hollman shares reassuring answers to these questions and more.   ❉ PROMOTING LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN: INSIGHTS AND GUIDANCE. Language skills are essential to academic learning, positive relationships and clear thinking. Parents have a crucial role in promoting language development in children through simple, everyday interactions from infancy to adulthood, whether or not English is the primary language at home and whether or not a child is bilingual. Dr. Maria Sera shares research-based information to help you provide a solid language foundation for your child's needs.  

In this episode, Dr Emily O'Reilly and alumnus Andrew Strankman from the School of Biomedical Sciences continue their excellent discussion on podcasting in education, this time going back to the basics. How do you record a podcast, and why would you want to? What tools would you need to begin podcasting, and what are some production tips worth remembering? And which kind of podcast would most enrich your course's delivery? This is the second in a two-part conversation facilitated by Teaching Matters' Eric Berger. In this short series, Emily and Andrew expand on the 'whys, whats, and hows' of educational podcasting – and digital education more broadly – in light of their recent PTAS-funded research project on podcasting in education. 2.15 Podcasts as a 'continuum' – podcasts can take many forms (from the informational monologue to the group podcast), but which suits your teaching needs? 8.52 How does one even begin to make a podcast? Our speakers consider the tricks and tools of the trade. 17.05 Barriers to entry in podcasting, or their lack thereof: “Just jump in and record”, say Emily and Andrew, “it's easier than it sounds!” 24.40 Student responses to podcasting – increasing engagement and sense of interaction 30.19 What should both teachers and their institutions remember about the use of podcasts in education? Emily and Andrew reflect on embracing trial and error. Transcript of the episode is available here. Music for this episode was provided by Hooksounds.

In this episode, Dr Emily O'Reilly and alumnus Andrew Strankman from the School of Biomedical Sciences introduces us to the specifics of their fascinating project on educational podcasts.

Dave Reay, Professor of Carbon Management and Education in the School of Geosciences and a Director of the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute, discusses his hopes for COP26 and the university's involvement in an interview with Joséphine Foucher, Teaching Matters Co-Editor and Student Engagement Officer. This episode accompanies our November and December Hot Topic theme: COP26 and embedding the climate emergency in our teaching. Dave begins by outlining some of the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute's (ECCI) work at the University, before expanding into all things COP26. Throughout, he contextualizes the conference, while considering interesting questions. How can climate change become embedded in our curriculum? How are students participating in the conference? What outcomes are we looking for in the conference? And climate change historically has been viewed as being all about big business or the individual, but what might a different perspective look like? We hope you enjoy this special one-off episode of Teaching Matters!

In this Teaching Matters podcast series, produced by The Race Equality and Anti-Racist Sub-Committee (REAR) at The University of Edinburgh in collaboration with Teaching Matters, we hear from different academics at the University about what Decolonising the Curriculum means for them, and how they have put this into practice in their learning and teaching or research. They also share some readings that they have found useful. In this episode, Johanna Holtan Co-Convenor of the Race Equality and Anti-Racist Sub-Committee (REAR) and Programme Director of the Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program talks to Dr Shadaab Rahemtulla, a Lecturer in Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations at the School of Divinity. He is also the Programme Director of the newly launched Masters in Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations. He argues that decolonisation is a conversation about power that consists in robbing knowledge of its so-called neutrality and innocence and understanding knowledge-production as located within a social context that is always filled with hierarchies and inequalities. In this humbling conversation, Dr Rahemtulla discusses how decolonising the curriculum is a reflexive exercise that those in power have a responsibility to practice.

Welcome to this podcast series produced by The Race Equality and Anti-Racist Sub-Committee (REAR) at The University of Edinburgh in collaboration with Teaching Matters where we hear from different academics at the University about what Decolonising the Curriculum means for them and how they have put this into practice in their learning and teaching or research. They also share some readings they have found useful. In this episode, Dr Gwenetta Curry, a lecturer in Race, Ethnicity, and Health in the Usher Institute discusses with Prof Rowena Arshad about decolonising the curriculum as a practice that consists of acknowledging the racist history of certain disciplines. Trained as a medical sociologist, Dr Curry endeavours to embed issues of race and racism within the medical training programme at the Usher's institute. Her role ranges from redesigning course material to include the lens of race and racism, to delivering webinars for the NHS to raise awareness about how systemic racism impacts patient care. In this engaging conversation, Dr Curry reminds of the importance of questioning the power dynamics that underlie various forms of knowledge-making.
