Nerducators

2. Get Off My Lawn?! (Phones, Social Media, and Cursive, Oh My!)


Listen Later

In this episode of Nerducators, Chandler and Russell dive into the ultimate teacher debate: are we evolving with the times… or just yelling at clouds?


From student cell phones in class to whether cursive still matters, they explore three hot-button issues that get educators fired up. Should kids under 16 have social media? Are smartphones a classroom tool or total distraction? And does anyone actually use cursive anymore — outside of signing historical documents and checks (and of course, Chandler winding down each night with a soothing bedtime read… from the original Declaration of Independence or some other historical document).


Along the way, you'll get cat updates, classroom tips, AVID shout-outs, and enough sound effects to make a morning meeting feel like a party. Expect real talk, plenty of laughs, and a healthy dose of “are we doing what’s best for kids, or just stuck in our ways?”


Tune in for a thought-provoking, hilarious, and slightly chaotic conversation that’ll have you questioning your own ‘Get Off My Lawn’ moments.
