The Future of Teacher Preparation
<p>In the final episode of “<a href="https://www.deansforimpact.org/tools-and-resources/podcast-hand-in-hand-place-to-place"><u>Hand in Hand, Place to Place</u></a>,” we look ahead to what an unpredictable future of teaching demands of teacher preparation. Exploring the rise of AI and different schooling models, this conversation surfaces what must adapt, and what must remain foundational, to best prepare teachers and students for what’s ahead.</p><p>DFI Executive Director and host Valerie Sakimura is joined by guests Lennon Audrain (Next Education Workforce Initiative, Arizona State University), Jim Meadows (Washington Education Association), and Sarah Johnson (Relay Graduate School of Education) to lift up what truly matters for the future of teaching and learning to ensure all students, and teachers, are set up for success.</p>

Inside the Black Box of Instruction
<p>There have been exciting developments to make teaching pathways more accessible and practice-based, with the growth of promising models like residencies and apprenticeship programs. But just as important as how new teachers are entering the profession is what they are practicing, and what instruction looks like inside these different pathways. Host and DFI Executive Director Valerie Sakimura is joined by Courtney Bell (Vice President of Research and Innovation, Tennessee SCORE), Julie Cohen (Associate Professor, University of Virginia) and Leah Brown (Assistant Professor of Secondary Education, University of Alaska Fairbanks) to discuss the breadth and impact of instructional shifts in teacher preparation and explore how new technologies are shaping the future of teaching.</p>

Crossing the Advocacy Divide
<p>Too often, teacher preparation and PK-12 policy are treated as separate: funded, legislated, and advocated for in isolation from one another. The result is a persistent disconnect that affects teacher retention, workforce quality, and ultimately, student learning – especially for those furthest from opportunity. DFI Executive Director Valerie Sakimura sits down with Jennifer Alexander (Executive Director, PIE Network), David Rosenberg (Leader-In-Residence, TeachPlus), and Ryan Franklin (Managing Director of Policy and Advocacy, Philanthropy Advocates) to explore how greater policy alignment can strengthen teacher pipelines and expand student access to more effective instruction.</p>
