The Value of Career Counseling in K-12 Education

Our guests for this episode are Dr. Sharon Pepukayi, Superintendent of Talbot County Public Schools (TCPS) in Maryland, and Robin Werner, Director of Teaching and Learning in TCPS. Robin tells us about a career counseling initiative in Maryland and Talbot’s unique response. The Talbot plan for career counseling is innovative and inspiring; listeners who are interested in implementing a career counseling model in 6-12 schools will enjoy this conversation. Sharon provides a big picture vision of student achievement as it relates to their career counseling initiative. Pay close attention to the other aspect of counseling in general that Robin shares. Listen to their approach to professional learning for the people implementing the initiative. Robin is taking a team to ACTE Vision this year to learn from other leaders regarding this work and other CCR initiatives. You’ll also hear T.J. plug NCAN, the National College Attainment Network. Robin describes a problem with tracking students after graduation and some of the solutions that they are using for that. Learn more about college and career readiness tools at MaiaLearning.com.

Graduating Every Student with Executive Functioning Skills

Executive functioning skills are the transferable durable skills that students need to be successful in school and life, including organizational habits, time management, goal setting, self-regulation, and more. The two main reasons that schools leave these skills to chance is time and know-how. Especially in secondary schools, the focus is on content and not necessarily the skills to access the content. Mitch is on a mission to change that so that kids are better prepared for college, career, and life in general. Mitch talks about the science of teaching as another aspect of what continues to be missing in schools, and he ultimately recommends Powerful Classrooms by Patrice Bain. One of the most important things that teachers can do to set students up for success is to ensure a predictable routine from classroom-to-classroom and day-to-day. Mitch says that it’s as important for teachers to be talking about their routines as it is for them to discuss lesson planning and curriculum resources. When students have a predictable routine, they can focus their attention on learning and not use their cognitive load on managing the task at hand. Mitch describes the fact that we’re often preparing students for jobs that don’t exist yet, which is a major reason why they need executive functioning skills even over some of the other content that we teach in schools. He tells a story about one of his own kids who has 6 teachers per day and that they all require different routines and procedures in their classrooms. We discuss the movement toward developing a Portrait of a Graduate and how durable skills, like executive functions, fit right into that conversation. We discuss the Huberman Lab episode about Optimal Protocols for Studying and Learning.
