Inquiry: Michelle Cottrell-Williams | Episode 05
It is fairly common for students to ask, “When will I ever use this?” This is not a meant to disparage the curriculum, but rather it is a challenge for teacher to make the content meaningful and worthwhile.
Michelle Cottrell-Williams, is an instructional coach at Gunston Middle School in
Arlington, VA, the 2018 Virginia State Teacher of the Year, and a member of the National Network of State Teachers of the Year.
Michelle sees herself as a disruptor who challenges her students to not only question the status-quo, but also to engage as citizens who are responsible for the future of their community.
In this episode of I have the pleasure to learn how Michelle uses inquiry to challenge her students to think about their role in society and taking them beyond the curriculum.
