Student Podcasts for Professional Learning - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S2 EP47

Because of a Teacher is now avaiable! Get your copy at linktr.ee/gcouros Inspired from a recent podcast focused on showing gratitude to educators that focused on the book, Because of a Teacher (bit.do/BOAT), this podcast shares a way to get students involved in creating a school podcast - asking students who is a teacher/educator/staff member that inspired you and why. This could be a short story shared by students which is powerful because the students share gratitude to their teachers. This could also be an opportunity for professional development where schools can reflect on what the students value about others. Couros also shares a way to get input from parents and caregivers that will help their voices be heard in the school decision-making process. A final note from Couros shares two important reasons to reflect - reflecting is a way to share learning and also a way to learn. The closing question asks, “How do you process learning?” Links: BECAUSE of a TEACHER: Livia Chan, Dwight Carter, and George Couros - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnCxWW1ho8c Because of a Teacher on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Because-Teacher-Stories-Inspire-Education/dp/194833433X George Couros’ Weekly Emails - https://bit.do/GeorgeMail Quotes: "It is better to show gratitude too early rather than too late."
