Dr. Pedro Noguera talks with Hollye and Shannon about inclusion from the lens of meeting every student where they are at. Teaching students the way they learn, not making students learn the way you teach. He reinforces the importance of relationship between educators and students. We, as educators, need to start by honoring the cultures of our students–their language, their traditions, their values are precious. We can help students find motivation and enthusiasm for learning through providing opportunities for creativity and a sense of success when they are engaging in problem solving. Moving towards meaningful ways of assessing learning: performance based demonstrations of knowledge and skill, like many schools in New York are doing now.
Dr. Noguera provides consultation to many Public Education Systems in states including New Mexico and Colorado. He shares some progressive programs that California, New Hampshire, and New York State are implementing with powerful outcomes. He gives straight answers on topics including standardized testing, ways educators can create humane and nurturing environments in the classroom, and ideas for getting the “conditions” right for learning in every classroom. Public education SHOULD be the very best quality for EVERY student! How do we, as Americans, find inroads to elevating our educators and students to achieve this? Dr. Noguera shares some powerful ideas that can move us forward.
