Pedagogy (?) | Episode #29 - D’Vaughn Powell a.k.a DJ Shadow

D’Vaughn Powell is a Computer Science & Humanities Teacher who is currently in his first year in the profession. On part one of our conversation, D’Vaughn and I discuss how teaching is really four jobs in one, the unrealistic introduction your practicum gives you, the major differences between the systemic expectations for learning in Nova Scotia vs. Alberta, becoming a DJ in university, the art of performing, spirituality outside of religion, Anime and its nuance, growing up in Jamaica and the differences in obedience to authority, what is actually meant by pedagogy, struggling with a new perception of self when moving to Canada to start university, and, much more.
