To the Classroom: Conversations with Researchers & Educators

Listening to this podcast has been inspiring and affirming. Jennifer speaks with some of the major players and researchers of literacy and provides practical applications for the classroom. She is always open to hear new voices and perspectives. I have grown so much as an educator listening to the latest research and its applications to the classroom. Keep it coming !!

I enjoy listening on my way to work. It is interesting to hear the perspectives of people who have dedicated their professional lives to literacy.

Some episodes are good and some are horrible. The discussion at the end of some episodes were very counter to the researchers position. The understanding of the panel on set for variability was problematic. There is a strong bias to Balance Literacy.

Our time is precious so what we do with it really matters. Jen’s podcast allows you to spend your time developing your understanding of relevant, critical, and complex topics all the while making the learning applicable in classrooms no matter what grade you teach, where you teach, or why you teach! Jen - your time spent on this podcast has and will continue to inspire educators to make their work more meaningful, engaging, and aligned with current research!! Thank you for helping me to make the best use of my time episode after episode!
