S1E15 - The Miseducation of Betsy DeVos

Saison 1

lundi 19 mars 2018 • Durée 52:51

Show Notes:

During today's show, we debrief Betsy DeVos' terribly embarrassing interview on 60 Minutes during our first segment.

What are the impacts of having an education secretary with such little experience and investment in and around public schools?

In our second segment, we have Tara García Mathewson from The Hechinger Report about the lack of physics teachers in schools with high poverty levels and schools that are composed largely of students of color.

Tara García Mathewson is a staff writer for The Hechinger Report where she covers national education issues. After graduating from Northwestern University, Tara worked at the Daily Herald, Illinois' third largest newspaper where she covered city government and education in Chicago's suburbs. Tara grew up in rural Western New York, and currently lives in Boston.

"Physics is widely considered to be a building block for a range of STEM disciplines— science, technology, engineering and math — and taking the course in high school is strongly correlated with getting a degree in a STEM field. Educators, policymakers and the general public agree that education in STEM is important. STEM occupations, jobs data show, pay more, and employment in STEM fields has grown at a faster rate than overall job growth."

In our final segment, we discuss new playground/recess ideas in Britain, and Casey leads us through a quiz show that will blow your mind!

S1E14 School security and the future of teacher unions

Saison 1

lundi 5 mars 2018 • Durée 57:58

Show Notes:

During today's show, we discuss the Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS shooting during our first segment.

Despite all the noise on this issue, as educators, how do you think we should improve what we do to keep students and staff safe in our schools?

We discuss the major points in the case, who is on each side, and the implications for teacher unions moving forward.

In our second segment, we discuss the Janus v. AFSCME Supreme Court Case.

Public employees in Illinois did not want to pay mandatory union fees in a state where all employees who work in a job with unions must pay "fair share" dues, omitting portions of the fee that go towards political action.
Janus argues that the required fees are a violation of his First Amendment free speech rights because the Union engages in speech and causes that he disagrees with, referred to as a compelled speech.
Unions obviously view a decision against them as 1) would bring about their demise, 2) would take away worker protections as it relates minorities and women, and 3) there is no first amendment right to be free from compelled subsidies, 4) that Janus’ characterization of unions as purely political is a gross mischaracterization of union activities.

In our final segment, a new Dear Betsy segment devolves into a discussion about nothing, kind of like Seinfeld, and kind of like Betsy Devos' actual work with education...nothing!

S1E13 - Grade For Learning, Not For Failure!

Saison 1

lundi 19 février 2018 • Durée 01:01:13

Show Notes:

During today's show, we discuss the following topics during our first segment:

From The Denver Post, we discuss the pros and cons of shortening the school week: "The four-day week, once a tool of rural districts, is coming to a Denver metro school district."
Funding issues are causing school districts across the country to cut days from the school week.
Achievement levels seem to stay at similar levels (in spite of the loss of an instructional day).

In our second segment, we interview Mr. Rick Wormeli, who is a national voice in standards based grading, differentiated instruction, and all things education. Rick Wormeli was one of the first Nationally Board Certified teachers in America, he brings 38 years of teaching experience in math, science, English, physical education, health, and history, and coaching teachers and principals. Rick’s work has been featured on Good Morning America, National Geographic Magazine, and the Washington Post. He is a frequent contributor to AMLE Magazine, and ASCD’s Education Leadership Magazine. Rick is the author of the award-winning book, Meet Me in the Middle, as well as the best-selling books Day One and Beyond, Fair Isn’t Always Equal, among others.

In our final segment, Casey leads us through a pop quiz on Higher Education!

S1E12 Facts are Lazy, Facts are Late : The Decay of Truth!

Saison 1

lundi 5 février 2018 • Durée 58:30

Show Notes:

During today's show, we discuss the following topics during our first segment:

From EducationNext, we discuss Chester Finn's piece entitled: Emphasis on Thinking Skills over Facts in Schools Contributes to Truth Decay.
Are teachers teaching thinking skills devoid of facts?
What is the difference between math/science facts and social studies facts? Is there room for interpretation?
What does Finn mean when he talks about "curricular squeamishness"?

In our second segment, we interview Ms. Gillian Williams, President of The Rensselaerville Institute. During our interview, Gillian and the gang discuss how TRI and their turnaround efforts are effective, what "durable change" looks like, and the key areas of successful educational change.

S1E11 System? What System?

Saison 1

lundi 22 janvier 2018 • Durée 56:48

Show Notes:

During today's show, we discuss the following topics during our first segment:

From the Washington Post, we discuss the previously lauded Ballou High School where it was just discovered that many students who received a diploma missed an extensive amount of school (so much so that they probably shouldn't have graduated by traditional metrics).
More than 1 of every 10 students receiving a diploma from a D.C. public high school last year missed most of the academic year, according to an investigation released Tuesday that casts a shadow on a district that has trumpeted improvements in graduation rates.
What does it mean to receive a diploma? Why is there doubt cast upon the students, when in reality it is an adult-created / system-created problem?

In our second segment, we bring back Hot Takes! and talk about school awards, teacher evaluations, tracking students to specific careers, and extracurricular activities.

In our final segment, we bring back another beloved segment all about #DearBetsy! During #DearBetsy, we discuss Devos' most recent speech that posits that Bush 2 and Obama's respective education reforms have done little to impact students.

lundi 18 décembre 2017 • Durée 56:41

Show Notes:

During today's show, we discuss the following topics during our first segment:

From the New York Times (linked below), the way schools are evaluated may be changing. We discuss how a new study shifts how we look at "underperforming" schools.
This study suggests that policy makers and education leaders may be thinking about student outcomes in all the wrong ways!

In our second segment, we have two very special guests to discuss Social Emotional Learning and a program they created called "TEAMology."
