S1E8: Bruce Janu "Moving away from the traditional classroom"

In this episode of School Chat, I sat down with Bruce Janu, a history teacher at Elk Grove High School. We both recently watched most likely to succeed and have since been inspired to try new approaches to our classes. Bruce started a project in which students could choose to create a podcast on World War I as an alternative to the traditional assessment. Our conversation pushes the boundaries of what a traditional classroom could be and how do we engage all of our students. I hope you enjoy.

Trausch S1 E2 Alyssa Trausch "What I want school to be"

This is this second episode of School Chat, I sat down Alyssa Trausch a current sophomore at Elk Grove High School. She wrote an amazing piece on what she wants school to be. Here is an excerpt: I want school to be a place where I love to go to every day. A place where learning is new, innovative, and exciting. When learning feels natural and not like all the content is being forced into my brain I have a tendency to remember it more. Truthfully I think what I really want school to be is a place where I can learn new things without being worried all about what score/grade I’m going to get and rather worrying about how I can use what I just learned to make my life (or someone’s else’s) better. It's a message everyone should here and we should strive to make happen in our classrooms every day. Have a listen.
