I haven’t changed a bit.)The interview took place in 2018, but it still perfectly captures the work I do and the reasons for it.We discuss:- Why Education: What called me into the world of education and what keeps me there.- Why Teachers and Administrators: Why I shifted my focus toward teachers and administrators for systemic change.- Schools as Holding Environments: Winnicott’s concept of “healthy holding environments” and how it applies to modern school culture.- Why My Book: The origin story of my book, The Feeling of Teaching and the message I needed the world to hear.- Ideal School: What my “ideal school” looks like.Leave a commentUhh! It’s all about me, but really it’s about my work.
