All Of The Above Podcast

In this episode of All of the Above we explore recent developments in American schooling from the diversifying student population to the shortage of teachers and more. The episode begins with a look at recent headlines in education, including the recent pressure placed on Apple to address the negative impact of children’s’ addictions to iPhones. Jeffrey then presents his case that the scarce amount of time that teachers are allotted to collaborate and refine their practice represents a crisis that keeps us behind education systems worldwide. Afterwards, we bring on a celebrated Ethnic Studies teacher and an award-winning university professor of Black Studies and History to discuss the dynamics of race and culture in the modern American classroom. Dr. Rustin closes out the episode with a message to teachers who oppose the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aota/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/aota/support
