034 Michael Considers Third Culture

Release Date:  December 12, 2019 Leave a Comment

Episode Synopsis

In our increasingly globalized world, ever more students are growing up immersed in multiple cultures throughout their childhood. These children can become “third culture kids”, young people who identify with a hybrid culture that is distinct from any of the places they’ve lived. We consider how teachers can be sensitive to their experience and supportive in their journey.

Later, we’ll read about Statway – a redesigned program that helps students engage in productive struggle and earn collegiate math credit faster and more consistently than a typical remedial program. We find lessons from their implementation that can be useful in any classroom or institution.

Finally, we read from a Mixed Bag of listener mail that prompts us to think more about past discussions on feedback and change initiatives.
