Welcome back to OEA Grow! Beth talks with Mindy Welsh, a Masters of Education student from Southern Oregon University. Mindy speaks to the value of understanding and connecting to the pedagogy of teaching versus just having the technical understanding of the practice of teaching.
Perhaps teacher burnout, high stress levels, and overall reduced sense of efficacy can be understood through a disconnect between pedagogy and practice? Mindy speaks to the philosophy of Holistic Education and how it may be a tool that authentically connects pedagogy to practice. Her Master’s of Education program is teaching and practicing this method with great success. Professors are modeling the practices and mindsets of Holistic Education in order that students can fortify a deep understanding of what Holistic Education means and how to implement it in a classroom.
Mindy shares new ways to build connections with students and teaching staff. This episode is filled with tips on how to become a better connected, more empowered educator. Listen in to grow!
