Why are teachers quitting? Why are they staying? Is there any hope?
In this special season finale, I speak with Charles Fournier, creator of the award-winning podcast Those Who Can’t Teach Anymore. Charles is a teacher — a really good, creative, passionate teacher, from what I can tell! — whose insights about what drives teachers out of the profession and what keeps them in are interesting and often surprising. We talk about * the multi-dimensional, culturally sanctioned disrespect for teachers * the pitfalls of quantifying learning * teaching content vs emphasizing relationships * my ideal teaching and learning “space” * a surprising characteristic of many teachers who stay in the profession For my non-teachers out there: See where you stand on your assumptions about teachers and teaching — and maybe consider how to support the diehard teachers students need!
