Alternative Education Teacher Training Pt 2 - Gaps and Challenges in Alt Ed Teacher Training

The Educational Triage Podcast

One could, I suppose, just jump into an alternative setting and begin teaching in a similar style as they did in a traditional setting. After all - it's worked for THEM in the past. But this isn't about the teacher - it's about the students. You know. The students who are left behind. The students who may not have caught on because they had another life outside of school that didn't fall into the middle-class norms placed on nearly every child in every school.

Alternative Ed is about rethinking styles, pedagogies, delivery systems, professional development, and assessments. It's about how to lift those children - students to another level and granting them the ability to prosper and learn. Traditional education doesn't work for them - so let's see what they have. Better yet, let's show them how they can each find a path to success and a future that will allow everyone around them to prosper, as well.
