The conversation dives into the importance of intrinsic motivation, effective planning, and adapting teaching methods to fit the needs of your students. We'll consider how readily available answers can impact student resilience and ask the tough question: are teacher preparation programs adequately equipping educators with the tools they need to be successful?
The episode delves into the shift in teaching strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the need for more thoughtful lesson design and the role that creativity plays in planning engaging lessons. We'll move beyond the activity-based classroom and explore objective-driven teaching methods that foster academic discourse and critical thinking skills.
