Send us a textJulie is a best-selling author and a pioneer of teaching conceptual understanding to encourage educators to break free of the industrial model of schooling. Julie is based in Virginia, USA.We always enjoy speaking to Julie, and every time we do, we learn something new to take away and try!Julie shares with us the concept-driven model she uses to underpin learning at all levels & abilities and explains how teachers can help to build connections and relationships to transfer learning into new contexts.In an episode jam-packed with gems, Julie identifies our need to fight perfectionism and work hard to be flexible in our practice as teachers, how we need to acknowledge past experiences to best support our students and the crucial role empathy plays amongst everything we do.She also explores how (and how not to) assess using this a concept-driven approach and interestingly, how we can all learn a bit more about resilience from the animal kingdom!Share this one with teachers, educators and coaches far and wide!Hosted by Lewis Keens and Alan Dunstan.Lewis and Alan discuss research, look at trends and have a good chat with the odd guest to support those working in education to be better educators and be better humans.
