<p>Establishing student voice in and out of the classroom is an evergreen idea: we can think about it, talk about it, try different strategies to amplify it, and give students opportunity express it. With many digital tools out there and many students finding themselves in an environment where they are learning remotely or have access to technology in a 1:1 setting (Student:Chromebook, for example), we explore a few ideas I've attempted in the classroom to leverage some of these tools. </p> <p>We hear 9th and 12th grade students in real time working through these strategies, un-muting, and sharing the ideas, thinking, and finding a voice in the English classroom. </p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRG8MiLPUxk">How To Use Google Jamboard </a>(YouTube)</p> <p><a href="https://teddintersmith.com/what-school-could-be/">What School Could Be</a> (Ted Dintersmith)</p> <p><a href="http://www.pluginpowerup.com">PowerUp</a> (Neebe and Roberts)</p> <p><a href="https://www.edutopia.org/article/framework-whole-class-discussions">Philosophical Chair </a>(Edutopia)</p> <p>You can read more on the Teaching Flashpoint blog: <a href="https://teachingflashpoint.edublogs.org/2020/12/19/wheres-your-student-voice-jamboards-philosophical-chairs-and-chat-blasts/">"Where's Your Student Voice?

<p>Sitting on a patio with several teachers put me next to Middle School PE teacher, Riley Hubbard. This first year teacher described a lesson to me for her class, and I was fascinated. This is PE? So she and another educator took me through their thinking in transforming Physical Education.</p> <p>So here’s what I learned. P.E., in their minds, is about Movement; it’s about Inclusivity and Empathy; it’s about Conversation and Community; it’s about Access, Self-Agency, and Reflection. And I thought, Oh, this is Physical Education reimagined. That's what you will find here in this episode, as we follow the story of Kendra Vair and Riley and how they hook kids and embed social emotional learning, giving access to all of their students.</p> <p>You can read more on the Teaching Flashpoint blog: <a href="https://teachingflashpoint.edublogs.org/2020/10/19/physical-education-reimagined/">"Physical Education Reimagined"</a></p> <p>As always, if you like the podcast be sure to share it and continue to find us on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and anywhere else you stream your podcasts.

<p>I heard Alison Myers speak, a middle school art teacher from a nearby school district. Alison <a href="https://www.mrsmyersartroom.com/">showcased a website</a> she was working on; samples of her students’ artwork from painting, drawing, and graphic designs they had completed remotely during her district’s distance learning hiatus in the spring; how she was communicating with these students and curating their work, facilitating and inspiring their creativity–and doing much of this type of work for the first time. She admitted she didn’t know technology well…yet, but she was giving it a shot.</p> <p>I sat their watching on my laptop during this Zoom conference as she exhibited all of this, smiling and thinking, this is art class? This is rad! (I tend to say “rad” quite a bit–child of the ’80s and all.) So we take this opportunity to sit down with Allison and her thoughts on teaching art to today's students which she breaks down into some simple aspects: Self-direction; Student Ownership; Creativity; and walking into the studio Thinking and Behaving like an artist.</p> <p>You can read more on the Teaching Flashpoint blog: <a href="https://teachingflashpoint.edublogs.org/2020/10/09/this-is-an-art-class-this-is-rad/">"This is an art class? This is rad!</a></p> <p>As always, if you like the podcast be sure to share it and continue to find us on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and anywhere else you stream your podcasts..</p>
