I'm excited to share the first in a series of videos on inclusive teaching practices produced by the UTS Business School Social Justice and Inclusion Committee. Within: seven practical tips for gathering and using the preferred names of your students.

You make two solid points here, Michael, including (1) a Master’s degree itself is weakly correlated to #TeacherExcellence and (2) paying teachers more overall would widen and deepen the pool of talented candidates. If I were starting my physics teaching career today, rather than 30 years ago, I would be able to command a near 6-figure salary in select parts of the country and that figure will only increase in the near term. One key point to add here regards the leaders with whom teachers work. Teachers are attracted to schools with world-class leadership…instructionally, organizationally, developmentally, etc. Teachers leave education due to factors that #SchoolLeadership directly controls. If we increase #PrincipalExcellence we will do more to improve the teacher pipeline than exorbitant raises ever could. s4e.com

Malcolm X said it best! 🫡 While there are certainly valid life paths that don't require traditional schooling, there's nothing quite like an education to guarantee your access to the best things life has to offer. 📚 To name just a few: 👉🏾Our relationships with our teachers, particularly in high school and college, often alter the course of our lives. They can expose us to fields of study we never knew were possible and illuminate talents we never knew we had! 👉🏾Education opens the door to career paths such as law, higher education, and medicine. 👉🏾Positive relationships with our educators often serve as valuable professional connections down the road, particularly for those who weren't born into professional connections and generational wealth. 👉🏾College education massively expands our perceptions of what's possible and exposes us to a variety of life paths we may not have had the chance to witness otherwise. Here at Charter Collaborative, we love to champion Historically Black Colleges and Universities both for their academic excellence and how they provide tailored post-grad support to students of color. ❤️ Who helped you learn the value of a good education?

Our second book is coming out later this Spring!!! If you are an educator, district/state ed leader, family advocate, scholar, activist, this book is for you! We poured everything into this one - years of experience and tangible next steps offered to effectively dismantle school-based disproportionality and move toward culturally responsive, equity-centered teaching and learning. If you are looking for deeply researched and vetted learning processes and templates to directly engage both a root cause analysis of your schools and the self to system work needed to move forward, check it out! Preorder from the link below! (feel free to also pick up our first book that further grounds all of this work in case studies.) https://lnkd.in/ewk9szFP

Did you know that only 25% of U.S. students are proficient in understanding civics? Courses in civics engage students in our democracy. This knowledge increases voter turnout and encourages more interaction with elected officials. Change happens from the bottom up—not the top down. It’s never been more important than now to understand our government, and what our roles and responsibilities are as citizens in a democracy. How would you score in a test on civics? Maybe it’s time to brush up on your knowledge. Join us for EDA’s 8-week education seminar on the Civics of Resource Democracy.

Thank you to Travis J. Bristol, Ph.D., Associate Professor at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Education and Board Chair at the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, for presenting to the RPPL network in April’s Brown Bag Lunch! This session, “Becoming a Critical Educative Mentor: A Professional Learning Community for Veteran Teachers in an Urban School District”, explored three related research strands in the context of culturally responsive teacher professional learning: 1️⃣ The role of educational policies in shaping teacher workplace experiences and retention; 2️⃣ District and school-based professional learning communities; 3️⃣ The role of race and gender in educational settings.
