ShiftEd Podcast 32: In Conversation with Dr. Debbie Pushor

In this episode of the ShiftED Podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Debbie Pushor, a distinguished educator, researcher, and professor at the University of Saskatchewan. Dr. Pushor shared her insightful research on fostering positive relationships between schools and families through the concept of family engagement. Dr. Pushor characterizes her work as a “strategic and progressive approach” designed to develop “evidence-based methods and practices that hold significant potential for educational impact.” Her research delves into the critical notion of “parents and educators collaborating as partners in the learning and development of children and youth.”
