    Beyond Quick Fixes to Racial Injustice in Education (Rebroadcast)

    Beyond Quick Fixes to Racial Injustice in Education (Rebroadcast)

    Two years ago, we started this episode of the podcast by asking, “how do we go beyond the cosmetic fixes of racial inequality in education?” That question carries even more weight as we re-listen to this conversation from 2018.

    This podcast is led by Dr. Sonja Cherry-Paul, Heinemann author and co-organizer of the Teacher’s College Reading and Writing Project’s Social Justice Saturday. Sonja is joined by then Heinemann Fellows Dr. Kim Parker, Tiana Silvas, and Tricia Ebarvia. Tricia and Kim also organize Disrupt Texts along with their co-founders Lorena German and Julia Torres. Disrupt Texts is a crowdsourced effort for teachers to challenge the traditional canon to create a more inclusive, representative, and equitable language arts curriculum. Since this conversation first aired in 2018, all of today’s guests have continued to published books, podcasts, talks, and professional development events on diversity, equity, inclusion, and being anti-racist.

    Before we begin, a message to our fellow white educators: we ask that you to do the work that’s necessary to disrupt whiteness and white supremacy within yourselves, your classrooms, and schools. We ask white educators to commit to doing this work now and long after the media coverage of this latest viral bout of racism.

    Seek out the work of these authors and other Indigenous, Black, and other People of Color. Follow them on social media, support them by buying their work and attending their events, amplify their voices, and never stop educating yourself.

    What We Do for the Love of Math with Heinemann Fellow Marian Dingle and Dr. Naomi Jessup

    What We Do for the Love of Math with Heinemann Fellow Marian Dingle and Dr. Naomi Jessup

    This week on the podcast we’re joined by Heinemann Fellow Marian Dingle, and Dr. Naomi Jessup. Marian’s work throughout her fellowship has been focused around her passion about mathematics, seeking to diversify mathematics curriculum through highlighting the work of mathematicians of color. Her guest, Dr. Jessup, is an assistant professor of mathematics education in the College of Education & Human Development’s Department of Early Childhood and Elementary Education at Georgia State University.

    In their conversation today, Marian and Dr. Jessup discuss mathematics as a humanizing force; a tool for finding solutions to social injustice. But too often, structural and systemic forces keep children from believing that they are good at math, setting them too early on trajectories that determine their level of success in mathematics. But a big difference can be made with the right support and encouragement early on and throughout a child's academic career.

    Elevating Equity and Justice (Rebroadcast)

    How do we connect our teaching to the times we live in today?

    In his new book, Elevating Equity and Justice, education policy expert and former civil rights lawyer, Robert Kim, takes us on a deep dive into ten cases of great historical impact, providing background and information on each as well as an explanation as to why it’s important to know them.

    Bob’s writing brings these court cases to life without overwhelming us with “legalese” and dos and don’ts. Bob recently sat down to talk about why this book is so important for teachers and what in his background led him to write it.

    Towanda Harris: The Right Tools Read Aloud

    Towanda Harris: The Right Tools Read Aloud

    Today on the podcast we’re excited to bring you a special read aloud episode from Towanda Harris, author of The Right Tools: A Guide to Selecting, Evaluating, and Implementing Classroom Resources and Practices. Her book is all about focusing on your students and and working from there to determine what resources are right for them.

    Towanda’s work reminds us that we do not need to be experts in the latest app, technology, or resource to be effective teachers. What we do need to be experts in, is knowing our students. This reminder to strategically focus on our students could not come at a better time as teachers look for new tools to teach remotely.

    Jennifer Serravallo and Dr. Maryanne Wolf on Deep Comprehension and Digital Texts

    Jennifer Serravallo and Dr. Maryanne Wolf on Deep Comprehension and Digital Texts

    About a month ago, we recorded a conversation between Heinemann author Jennifer Serravallo, and neuroscientist and author Dr. Maryanne Wolf, about the reading brain — critical, deep reading, comprehension, and considerations for digital reading. Today, we are all confronted with non-stop coverage of COVID-19, and our comprehension of the information is critical. Schools are closing, and teachers are supporting students remotely. In many cases, we will all be spending more time reading and writing on screen. 

    In this time, and with this transition, their conversation feels especially relevant. So, how did Jen Serravallo, and Heinemann author, and Maryanne Wold, published by Harper, come together? Well, let's go back in time to last summer, July in fact, when Jen was first reading Maryanne's book. Jen talked about it during the second day of her summer camp lesson. 

    When Jen mentioned author Maryanne Wolf, she sparked an idea. We thought it would be amazing to hear Jen, the author of Complete Comprehension and Understanding Texts and Readers interview Maryanne Wolf about the work in her book Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World published by Harper. To our delight, both authors loved the idea as well. Here now is their conversation, hosted by Jennifer Serravallo.

    Robert Kim and the Legal Impacts Facing LGBTQ+ Students

    When you think about court cases that have changed education, you probably think of the big ones, like Brown v. Board of Education. But what about the others?
