Educating the World CJ Barron

Hello Everyone!! I'm back and just got done recording this episode for my continuing education credits and it was so beneficial. It's called Helping Struggling Readers and I was given so many amazing resources and apps that are going to help me so much in the next few years. Please give it a listen. 

In this episode, CJ and Hannah are talking about their beginning steps into looking for jobs. With student teaching coming to an end, the time to start thinking about the future is here! They discuss what they are looking for and how they are preparing for applications and interviews.

We’re back! CJ and Hannah have officially begun their student teaching. This week, they talk about how the first month of their experiences has gone. They talk about everything from relationship building to curriculum, to One Direction. We are so happy to be back recording episodes!

This week, we are joined by a fellow preservice teacher, Maggie Pung! CJ, Hannah, and Maggie discuss the implications of the outcome of the election and then dive into a deep discussion into a critical literacy resource box project they completed recently. What is critical literacy? What tools can we use to implement it in our classrooms? What do we need to keep in mind? This is a big one.

CJ discusses this week's reading and video, both by Dr. Julia Coiro, which focuses on digital inquiry and supporting inquiry in reading comprehension for students. Come Listen!

This week, Educating the World has its first guest, Ben Music! He details what drew him to education, and his passion for equitable and inclusive education. Then, CJ, Hannah, and Ben get into the nitty-gritty of the implications the impending presidential election has on the education world, and more importantly, on the students they teach.
