In this episode, we delve deep into the complex challenges often faced by students in urban areas - obstacles compounded by factors such as race, gender, social class, and more. Our guest is none other than Tyrone Howard, the President of AERA and a national authority in urban education.
Howard brings his extensive knowledge and experience to the table, providing valuable insights and guidance for educators and leaders. He emphasizes the crucial role of listening to parents and students, encouraging them to actively participate in cultivating a thriving school culture where every student feels a sense of belonging while fostering a passion for learning.
Additionally, Howard advocates for an organic and holistic approach to data collection in education, focusing on truly hearing what students have to say. This, he believes, is essential for shaping school policies that genuinely reflect students' needs and are specifically tailored to guarantee their success.
Join Peter DeWitt and Season 7 Co-host, Mike Nelson, as we explore these critical issues with Tyrone, uncovering pragmatic strategies aimed at overcoming barriers to create an inclusive, successful learning environment for all students.
