Today we are wrapping up our conversation with Josh Wilson. In this episode, he explains his dissertation research about Experienced New Teachers, who are they, and what do they need? At a time when teacher retention is of vital importance, Josh’s work is timely and vital.

Supporting new teachers has always been a priority for schools and school systems, especially as we know that two-thirds of new teachers leave the profession within the first five years of their career. Josh’s focus on experienced folks who are in a new environment is worth engaging with if we want to address the needs of some of our veterans in the profession too. This is something that the Edjacent collaborative are concerned about, and I’m pleased to say that Josh is going to be working with us on just this issue in the future. I’m looking forward to hearing more about his work in the future.

In today’s story we hear more from Dr. Josh Wilson. In this part of our conversation, we explore the transition from taking classes in a PhD program, to the point where you are on your own at dissertation phase. We discuss how he chose his topic, which is never an easy decision, and we learn about a new term which features in his study – Experienced New Teachers.

Dr. Josh Wilson is a high school social studies teacher, a recent PhD graduate, and, like me, a reluctant entrant into the teaching profession. His story is well worth a listen.

Well, we are back for the new year.  The plan is to continue to share in-depth teacher stories. Continue to position our understanding of where we are in a historical context, and in between maybe have some fun. The plan is to release episodes every couple of weeks until the summer break, then resume in the fall.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve found that since the beginning of the pandemic, my tolerance for long podcasts has waned. I have a decreasing bandwidth for lengthy podcasts, and as a result, I’ve been trying to make each of ours shorter. So, my commitment to you, dear listener, is to make sure that my content does not go beyond 30 minutes. Now I can’t account for commercials and the stuff that our hosts and providers share, but I can at least do that for you.

In today’s episode, we share the final part of my conversation with Edjacent designer Jared Fritzinger. We’ve been talking about Capstone projects, and the ecobus in particular. Today we will conclude by investigating the idea of educators as artists. I always enjoy chatting with Jared, and we talk about so many things in our time together. If you haven’t listened to the previous parts of the interview, I suggest you go back and listen to Episodes 29 to 31. They will give you context as to where today’s conversation is coming from.

In today’s episode, we share another part of my conversation with Edjacent designer Jared Fritzinger. Last time we talked about his student’s capstone project and how they conceptualized, then refitted and ecobus to help teach other schools about sustainability. If you haven’t’ listened to episode 31 yet, I suggest that you do. It’s a fascinating conversation.

Today, though, we talk about how the ecobus project developed through the pandemic and how that and other capstone projects align to the true purpose of education. We also touch upon how the act of breaking boundaries is a key part of the good work that educators should do.

In today’s episode, we continue our conversation with Edjacent designer Jared Fritzinger. Last time he told us a little about the capstone experience that he provides for his students. Today we will learn about the first two years of implementation of just one of those student driven experiences, and we find out some interesting information about using cooking oil instead of diesel.

In today’s episode we speak to Edjacent designer Jared Fritzinger. Jared was on our pub talk episode (way back in episode 14) so you’ve met him before. I suppose this now makes him a “Friend of the pod” as they say in the podcasting world. Whenever I get a chance to talk with Jared, we always talk for hours about so many things. In our conversation shared over the next few episodes we talk about capstone projects, sustainability, using cooking oil as fuel, punk rock, independent record labels, and why educators should be treated as artists. But for today’s episode we get to know Jared a little better as he shares his teacher story and introduces us to the eighth-grade capstone experience.
