Episode #5: Imagine the Ideal Classroom 15:28

6d ago15:28

15:28

Spend time thinking about the ideal classroom, knowing that every classroom will look different. What does the physical space look like? How are lessons taught in that classroom? What does assessment and classroom management look like? Once you begin to understand what "ideal" looks like to you, start working towards it every day. In all likelihood…

Episode #6: Furries and Other Fires 17:11

26d ago17:11

17:11

It is absolutely impossible for a teacher to adequately meet all of the mental health and socioemotional health needs of our students - nor should we try. In a world and society that's "all about me" and relative ethics, we have to focus on developing a classroom that is all about driving academic content and building relationships. We can't allow …

Episode $5: Enrichment > Edutainment 31:14

1M ago31:14

31:14

Enrichment is far more effective than edutainment. As students reach high school, they search for more "meaning" in lessons than "fun" alone. Enrichment is the key to both engaging students and establishing that meaning. For effective teachers, striving to make every class "fun" is a secondary concern to building lesson plans that allow students to…

Episode #5: Don't Forget to Document 21:22

1M ago21:22

21:22

Effective and professional teachers document early and often. They document the good and the bad. They document how effective lessons are in meeting their goals. They document patterns in student performance and behavior. They then use this data to improve student outcomes. It's not about paranoia or simply documenting for the major disruptions/iss…

Episode #3: Chatterbox 30:43

2M ago30:43

30:43

It's the age-old question, "How do I keep my students from talking so much in class?" This episode will help you answer that question by looking at why students talk in the first place, as well as why your classroom management techniques might be falling short. In most cases, issues with excess talking in the classroom are signs of larger problems,…

Episode #2: Ban Bad Discipline Practices 54:37

2M ago54:37

54:37

This episode presents a powerful list that educators can use to improve their classroom management, particularly when discipline problems occur. Whether you are new to the classroom or a long-time veteran, we need to realize that effective teachers always reflect on "why" and "how" we respond to discipline issues.…

Episode #1: All About People 24:59

2M ago24:59

24:59

Effective teachers focus on people, not just lessons or assessments. We learn together, achieve together, struggle together, overcome together, and celebrate together. The classroom and your lessons should reflect the real world because it is the real world with real people. Remembering that will improve your teaching, as well as make it more meani…

Episode $26: Zero Regrets....Yeah Right 22:54

4M ago22:54

22:54

As humans and effective teachers, we will always regret things - certain choices we made, how we taught a lesson, how we reacted to a student, etc. Not only is that natural, it makes us better educators and people. Learning from mistakes is at the center of any authentic learning. To the narcissistic few that say they have "zero regrets," I'll remi…

Episode #25: Young and the Restless 25:14

4M ago25:14

25:14

Effective teachers turn the challenges of working with teenagers into opportunities for success and learning. Working with high schoolers is not for the weak. They will be hormonal, use inappropriate language and humor, face peer pressure, and so much more. We can't just stick our heads in the sand. If we do, we will miss opportunities to guide the…

Episode #24: X-Factor 22:26

4M ago22:26

22:26

It's amazing how often we notice that certain teachers have the "X-factor." They just "get it." They are superstars. We may say the same about certain teachers we had in school. Do you have the X-factor? Have you lost it? Think back to your first teaching interview. Are the things you said in that interview about why/how you wanted to teach still t…

Episode #23: Warning Signs 30:15

5M ago30:15

30:15

Effective teachers understand and define success through goal-setting. If we don't set goals and pay attention to the warning signs that indicate we are off-track, we risk being less effective in the classroom and beyond.Matt Bramuchi による

Episode #22: Vast Learning Opportunities Are Being Missed 37:14

5M ago37:14

The world is changing, and it always will. Effective teachers know, understand, and adapt to this change.

This episode presents several classroom lessons that illustrate instructional strategies and pedagogies that will better help learn…

Episode #21: Undercover Agents and Unholy Alliances 16:03

5M ago16:03

16:03

Serving in education, like most occupations, comes with its fair share of "politics." The goal is to stay out of the fray as much as possible. Instead, focus on your job and your students. Few things bring more "political" unrest than undercover "agents" and "unholy" alliances. Effective teachers avoid these at all costs.…

Episode #20: Tragedy of the Commons 21:06

5M ago21:06

21:06

The "tragedy of the commons" is having a real impact on educators and the system as a whole. Teachers are a limited resource with limited time and capacity. Educators need clear job descriptions and boundaries that are both respected by and communicated to all stakeholders. Not only should we advocate for those things at our schools and in our vari…

Episode #19: Stop the Sham Trials 21:11

6M ago21:11

21:11

It's sad to say, but students endure sham trials all the time in education. They are regularly "crystal-balled", pigeon-holed, stereotyped, and found guilty by association. Effective teachers instead make building individual relationships the priority. They don't permanently shackle students to bad decisions or poor performance. They don't place a …

Episode #18: Rigor and Rigidity are Overused Weapons 24:02

6M ago24:02

24:02

Making a class convoluted and challenging without purpose or intentionality is a losing strategy. Also, serving as the inflexible dictator of your process will inevitably fail students. Don't weaponize rigor and rigidity. Instead, be an advocate for empathy and individuality. You will get students that are more willing and able to learn.…

Episode #17: Question what You Celebrate 21:25

6M ago21:25

21:25

You can determine a great deal about the culture of a classroom or school by what is celebrated in them. Be intentional about what you celebrate (and how). If not, you will undermine your own process and inevitably leave students behind.Matt Bramuchi による

Episode #16: Part to Whole vs. Whole to Part Learners 21:12

6M ago21:12

21:12

One of the fundamental questions we must ask ourselves about a student is whether he/she is a "Part to Whole" (PW) or "Whole to Part" (WP) learner. Does a student need all the details in order to fully understand a concept or does he need to see the big picture first to truly master a concept? The truth is that ultimately our scaffolding, lessons, …

Episode 15: Out of Bounds 39:06

6M ago39:06

39:06

Connecting and building relationships with students in the classroom is hugely impactful, as is building community with those you work with/for professionally.

Episode #14: Nickelback 23:00

7M ago23:00

23:00

The obvious reality is that teachers are overworked. Also, there is no such thing as "giving 110%." Why do we take on more classes, more clubs, and more duties just to get a nickel back? Effective teachers know that we have to make hard choices. We have to learn to say "no" when it doesn't also benefit us and our own personal and professional growt…

Episode #13: Mundane in the Membrane 14:59

7M ago14:59

14:59

The moment your class (or you) becomes mundane for students is the very moment our process begins to be less effective. Even the best instructional and assessment strategies have to be used thoughtfully and intentionally. Is your class the same each and every day? I hope not -- and so do your students.…

Episode #12: Low Expectations = Low Results 20:58

7M ago20:58

20:58

A simple truth: Low expectations almost certainly equal low results. From homogenizing the population to pushing 50% "zeroes," the system seems built to soften expectations and push students through regardless of actual learning. As educators, we have to resist and lead the culture of learning in our classrooms. We have to focus on developing grit,…

Episode #11: Kryptonite for Kids 34:52

8M ago34:52

34:52

We have to take a deep and empathetic look at what is affecting our kids today. From school dances and time management woes to friend drama and bullying, there is a great deal of kryptonite out there making it harder and hardener to effectively reach students in the classroom and beyond. We can't teach (or coach) in a bubble and/or stick our heads …

Episode #10: Jerry...Jerry...Jerry! 27:58

8M ago27:58

27:58

More and more classrooms are becoming absolute clown shows and ineffective learning environments because of student populations that are becoming increasingly disruptive, disinterested, and disillusioned. While effective teachers primarily focus on controlling what they can control, they also know that emphasizing the ABC's of teaching, remaining d…

Episode #9: Inequity is Inevitable 23:17

8M ago23:17

23:17

Strive for equitable access to education, knowing your classroom will never be perfect. However, don't obsess with trying to create equitable outcomes - no matter how much some in society and educational leadership push you to do so. Equitable outcomes are both unrealistic AND undesirable. Students are individuals with different backgrounds, life e…

Episode #8: Heavy Lifter Hostility 17:39

8M ago17:39

17:39

As you know, 20% of people do 80% of the work. It's no different in our profession. In the high-functioning world of eduction, years of "heavy lifting" by a teacher can inevitably lead to burnout, health repercussions, time management issues, and yes, resentment and hostility. Get better at margin and setting personal and professional goals for you…

Episode #7: Get Preppy 18:46

9M ago18:46

18:46

Secondary teachers are getting absolutely buried by the number and types of preps they are assigned. Subject/content-areas aren't arbitrary -- and neither are the teachers. We need to focus on putting educators in the appropriate classrooms that match training, experience, and motivation. It's about putting people where they are most effective. If …

Episode #6: Four-Letter Words 25:28

9M ago25:28

25:28

Effective teachers realize that there are some four-letter words that are crucial in the classroom and our academic process. Words like "can't," "fear," and "love" have a huge impact on our students. They should have a huge impact on us too if want to better reach those we serve.Matt Bramuchi による

1
Episode #5: Efficacy and Efficiency 16:53

9M ago16:53

16:53

Effective teachers, by definition, reach their objectives and desired goals. They are also efficient. Falling short on either efficacy or efficiency means students and other stakeholders are paying the price academically. Hold your process to that standard each and every day.Matt Bramuchi による

Episode #4: Ditch the Useless Professional Development 20:59

9M ago20:59

20:59

It's time we ditch the useless professional development (PD). That doesn't mean we stop PD - it just means we stop wasting the valuable (and limited) time of educators with tired ideas and inapplicable training. It's time we provide teachers with meaningful PD and collaborative opportunities that support and complement their own growth and goals.…

Episode #3: Crayons or Pencils? 17:41

9M ago17:41

17:41

As a teacher, you need to reflect on your lessons and decide if they tend to be built for younger or older students. As you diversify instruction and assessment, effective teachers also need to balance your mix of "crayon" and "pencil" lessons. Students are on a spectrum developmentally and academically. Therefore, if our lessons aren't dynamic on …

Episode #2: Boulevard of Broken Dreams 17:54

10M ago17:54

Teachers play a huge role in helping students achieve their goals and dreams. However, if we aren't honest with them and don't help them find value in education, we are likely doing more harm than good.Matt Bramuchi による

Episode #25: Yank Back Financial Control of Our Classroom 30:34

12M ago30:34

30:34

From managing our resources to building effective school supply lists and enriching lessons, teachers need to take control of the financial spending and planning in our classrooms. It's difficult to be effective when the needs of our students aren't met. Teachers also shouldn't carry the burden of spending personal income on lessons and infrastruct…

Episode #24: "X"ecute Plan A, B, C, D... 13:50

12M ago13:50

1y ago15:24

15:24

Get out of your comfort zone and venture into the unknown. As always, exploration and application should be built into your lessons.

It makes the process more meaningful for you and them.…

Episode #21: Utilize Social Media 17:13

1y ago17:13

17:13

It's time for us to accept that students communicate primarily through social media. Instead of running from it, teachers should embrace it in their lessons and in their classroom communications. Effective teachers know that they should focus on leading in technology and modeling responsible use.Matt Bramuchi による

Episode #20: Teach Them to Explore 21:13

1y ago21:13

21:13

Even if we successfully empower students, if we don't build in time for exploration, as well as model it consistently, our students will not likely individualize or own the learning. Effective teachers know that relationships must come before the content. Help develop those relationships with you, each other, AND the content by building exploration…

Episode #19: Separate Business and Personal 21:20

1y ago21:20

21:20

While educators can never completely separate business and personal, effective teachers know that finding work-life balance, unplugging, and focusing on personal and professional growth are the keys to both success and improved quality of life. It's possible to be extremely effective, passionate, and empathetic while still having a boundary between…

Episode #18: Regroup Before Regrading 22:43

1y ago22:43

22:43

Take a little time and regroup before regrading assessments. Effective teachers know that making rash or "on the spot" decisions about feedback can negatively impact the learning process and the data. Encourage students to advocate and ask questions, but don't be quick to add add points, curve grades, or throw out questions. Always ask "why" studen…

Episode #17: Quit Stressing Over Reteaching 19:46

1y ago19:46

19:46

Effective teachers know that using feedback from assessments is the key to achieving mastery. Thus, we can't be scared to reteach. This may mean our classes across the day don't pace together or even get identical lessons. Shouldn't that actually be the norm? If learning is messy and the goal is to achieve mastery, you would certainly expect less s…

1
Episode #16: Preach Less and Partner More 22:33

1y ago22:33

22:33

It may be cliche`, but effective teachers know that it has to be less us and more them. Our goal should be to partner with them in the learning - not simply preach all day. Stay passionate about what you're teaching, but remember, they have to be the star.Matt Bramuchi による

1
Episode #15: Open Your Mind to Open-Book Exams 13:13

1y ago13:13

13:13

Effective teachers diversify their assessment strategies. This should include occasionally giving open-book/note assessments. These types of assessments offer another powerful way to assess a student's ability to apply and analyze information, as well as for a teacher to measure his/her own instructional/assessment practices (i.e. amount of memoriz…

Episode #14: Never Dismiss Standardized Testing 34:21

It's time to change your relationship with standardized testing. Fair or foul, right or wrong, they are an important metric for identifying where kids are in the learning process. Are they flawed?

1y ago28:37

Clear role identification is crucial in generating better academic outcomes. This is particularly true when it comes to the partnership between teachers and school counselors.
