#K12 #superintendents take a multifaceted approach to addressing anti-Semitism and other types of discrimination on their campuses. Doug Roberts, Founder and CEO of the Institute for Education Innovation, spoke with WICC radio’s Melissa in the Morning this week to give listeners a better understanding of superintendents’ role in preventing such attacks. https://lnkd.in/eYh5e-Mn The first approach #education #leaders take is prevention. “These are things we fight hard against as leaders, and we do so by building cultures in our districts where people feel included and welcomed and supported,” he says. The second is more social-emotional #SEL awareness and funding thanks to initiatives at the federal, state, and local levels. “We were able to build up stronger networks for mental health supports,” Doug says. “If a student feels that they are subject to any sort of anti-Semitic attack, we have to make sure we are checking in with kids." Third, Doug emphasized that when incidents happen, they need to be teachable moments for the children responsible. Schools can have strong policies against hatred but at the same time attempt to understand why the students acted as they did and address the root causes through education and building better understanding. In early May, the leaders of some of the largest U.S. public school districts testified before Congress about steps they are taking to address anti-Semitism, and Doug urged Congress to take action too, such as re-upping mental health funding for schools. “Superintendents who went to D.C. made a strong showing for our profession,” he says. “We literally stay up at night thinking about how we can make sure every student in our schools feels safe.” #ThoughtLeadership #Schools #Inclusion #Respect #TeachableMoments #MentalHealth #Wellbeing
We’re proud to share that our Founder and CEO, Doug Roberts, was a guest on Melissa in the Morning, WICC 600 AM and 107.3 FM, discussing "Attacking Anti-Semitism at K-12 Campuses." During the conversation, Doug addressed the problem and potential solutions, shedding light on the Institute for Education Innovation (IEI) and its efforts. IEI is a network of over 100 K-12 superintendents committed to improving student outcomes.

I am humbled and honored to have been nominated by my peers and selected by the committee to receive the Researcher of the Year award! I recently received my 20-years-of-service plaque from the State of North Carolina, prompting me to reflect on my career. I actually fell into this work. After graduating from Bren School of Environmental Science & Management - University of California, Santa Barbara, I thought I'd get a job to develop conservation policies to effect change in our communities. While I don't create policies, I've worked on really great projects that contribute to making communities better places to live. Some of the projects I'm most proud of include: -Developing the Let's Go NC! skills based curriculum for teaching elementary aged children about walking and bicycling (https://lnkd.in/exFgptxK) -The recently completed TCRP Research Report 248: Tactile Wayfinding in Transportation Settings for Travelers Who Are Blind or Visually Impaired (https://lnkd.in/epJXAdQ7) -And establishing several programs for NCDOT. These include: --Bicycle and Pedestrian Planning Grant Initiative, which as awarded funds to develop or update over 240 plans across the state thus far, --Safe Routes to School Program, where I served as interim coordinator for the state, --The Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure Network, --The Non-Motorized Volume Data Program, and --The Pedestrian Crossing Guidance and Flow Chart I like to think I've also had a hand in improving safety through research I've been involved with to study rumble strip gaps for bicyclists, variable posted speed limit signs in school zones, separated bike lanes, shared use path crossings, and wayfinding for accessibility. I have seen these projects and research influence the decisions that policymakers have made. I didn't do any of this work alone, so I share this award with the many people I've collaborated with along the way. Every project is a team effort, and I always learn a lot from the contributions and expertise of others. Finally, it has been a rewarding job to be a researcher, even though this isn't what I thought I wanted to be when I grew up. 😉 I am glad I fell into this profession, and I thank Mary Meletiou, APBP's 2011 Award recipient for Lifetime Achievement, for taking a chance on me and mentoring me early in my career.
We are proud to share that PBIC team member Sarah O'Brien was recently named Research Professional of the Year by the Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals (APBP)! As a senior research associate at UNC Highway Safety Research Center, Sarah was recognized for her significant contributions to innovative research in increasing accessibility in the public realm, pedestrian and bicyclist data, and decision-making tools for facility selection. The award selection committee noted that “her colleagues and peers value her guidance, mentorship, and expertise in navigating research processes.” Sarah also recently celebrated 20 years of experience in nonmotorized planning, education, policy, and design. Congratulations, Sarah, and thank you for your dedication to making our roads safer for all! Read more about APBP 2024 Annual Award Winners: https://lnkd.in/gVmEuxy

Storytelling is at our core 🎥 And marketing should = storytelling. We've helped Southern College of Optometry tell many stories through film 🎥 but I'm always proud of our work to tell the students' stories and what their journey is like. The students always come into the interview sessions a bit nervous, but they leave having told a solid story about their journey, which really connects with prospective students of the school. Prospective students don't want to hear a bunch of fluff from the staff. They want to hear honest stories from the students that are a few steps ahead of them. Embrace storytelling within your marketing, and it will do wonders, I guarantee it. ___ If you need help with content creation and storytelling, send me a DM. We can help you strategize, film, edit, and create content on a regular basis.
This week's Testimonial Thursday post features Student Ambassador Noah Eckel, ‘26, from Keedysville, Maryland. In his video, Noah talks about the transition from undergrad to professional school, the strong sense of community and family feel on campus, and the scholarship opportunities that helped with his decision to attend SCO:
