Episode Synopsis "Classroom advice for discussing current events and sensitive topics | Ep. 2"
Episode two of Real Learning features a conversation with Jamie Ellman about current events in the classroom. How can teachers best approach sensitive or controversial topics? Why are current events so engaging to students? How can we teach students empathy? How can we create classrooms where students WANT to learn? There is an art to teaching so that students feel eager to learn. By activating student’s intrinsic motivation to learn, teachers can change the entire course of kids’ lives. This podcast is about sparking interest by making learning relatable. We are talking about cultivating classrooms where students are enthusiastic about thinking for themselves, asking great questions, and considering multiple perspectives. Empathetic classrooms where students are readily making connections between their lives and what they are learning in school. If you are an educator, thank you for all that you do. We’re lucky to have you.
