S3E6 - How does your identity impact your teaching?

Often overlooked in discussions about educational equity and culturally responsive teaching is the role that a teacher’s own personal identity plays in how they approach their practice and interact with others. How do our identities impact our work in education and what can educators do to unpack their identity in the pursuit of educational justice? We’re joined by Heinemann fellow and educator extraordinaire Minjung Pai for a discussion about what personal identity work is and why it matters for our schools. Also, we review this week’s headlines in education including a report that the College Board is selling student data to colleges aiming to cook their books and improve their rankings.
