With the conversation of cell phone bans always looming over the educational setting, the Dynamic Duo contemplates whether we, as teachers, can actually cut out cell phones from the classroom environment. They discuss the pros and cons of cell phone use in schools, as well as bring up the systemic issues that exist alongside their usage.

In Episode 131, Chey and Pav reflect on how they've been implementing "Thinking Classrooms" in their respective learning spaces. The "Thinking Classroom" model has been coined by mathematician Dr. Peter Liljedahl and his work of creating math learning spaces that encourage students to think more with their math tasks. This problems based approach has several best practices attached to it (outlined by this edutopia post by Peter, himself) and Chey and Pav talk about a few of the first chapters and how they've implemented these strategies. Pav teaches Math and Science, and Chey teaches Language and History - so it has been interesting to see how the two of them use the Thinking Classroom model in different ways to support learning.

In Episode 130, Chey and Pav speak with Salima Kassam, elementary school principal and anti-racist, anti-oppression educator from Ontario, Canada.

Chey and Pav talk to Salima about her journey in education, in particular about her experiences with anti-racism and anti-oppression education, and the toll that it can take on well-being for educators. Salima tells us about the different ways that she has looked to take care of herself when this work becomes overwhelming, and how the way we respond to these stressors can aide us in this necessary work.



The conversation is brilliant and left us with many nuggets to reflect upon, well after the end of the episode.
