When schools began to integrate following Brown v. Board of Education, many Black educators lost their jobs and the Art of Black Teaching became more difficult to sustain in integrated settings. Wrapped up in a deep history of critical consciousness and political engagement, some would argue that there has been an active history of criminalizing Black education, though the resilience of the Black community has preserved its rich pedagogical tradition. As part of our Equity Thought Leader podcast series, join our conversation with Dr. Jarvis R .Givens, Assistant Professor at Harvard University and author of Fugitive Pedagogy: Carter G. Woodson and the Art of Black Teaching, as we unpack the rich and storied history of Black education in America.

When we speak of data, it is natural to envision numbers and graphs, but quantitative data only tells part of the story. And sometimes it tells the wrong story, as we bring our own biases to the interpretations. What if we used stories to deepen our understanding of quantitative data or to challenge our own assumptions about the data? What if we added this third-dimension to the numbers to balance the stories we tell ourselves about the numbers we see? Listen to Val Brown, a national leader in anti-racist education, help us unpack the power of stories as equity data.

Narratives shape how we see and perceive the world. Both the stories we are told and the stories we tell ourselves shape how we understand who we are and where we belong in the world. In equity work, stories humanize “the other” and help us to connect on personal levels, challenging our biases and assumptions about others. Listen to Erin Jones, decorated educator and skilled trainer, as she leverages the power of her own story to bring out change and equitable outcomes for all students.

When educators consider ways to make their curriculum historically and culturally responsive, many struggle to go deeper than content integration and literary substitutions. As part of our "Equity Thought Leader" podcast series, Dr. Gholdy Muhammad, author of Cultivating Genius, explains her HILL pedagogy model (History, Identity, Literacy, and Liberation). Dr. Muhammad’s research examining abolitionists and 19th century education among communities of color found that early Black readers, writers and thinkers held five goals or pursuits for learning. This approach extends Culturally Responsive Education to include these 5 pursuits: Identity, Skills, Intellect, Criticality, and Joy. Listen in as she explains the historical roots of our current education system and the reason that intentionally cultivating our students genius serves as an antidote to that history.

"All professionals need to [collaborate] otherwise they are not [in] professions because people don't share their expertise."

In an increasingly competitive world, grades have become a currency of sorts in education, but do they really measure student learning?

How might our grading better reflect their learning? As part of an 8-part "Thought Leader" podcast series, join our conversation with Dr. Thomas Guskey (Senior Research Scholar at University of Louisville and Professor Emeritus at University of Kentucky) as we delve deeper into the history of our current grading practices, their impact on student motivation, and potential best practices to better reflect student learning.

As the nation continues to wrestle with making meaning of college AND career readiness, why does Linked Learning make sense for America's high schools? How can a school that is already working, change to become even better and stronger -- transforming the high school diploma from a certificate of completion to a passport teeming with opportunities? Join Edward Steinhauser (Linked Learning Pathway Coordinator) and Renee Shipman (Assistant Principal) of Wilson High School in Long Beach, CA as they tell the story of their school's transformation from a traditional high school to a Linked Learning College and Career Ready school. In their second full year of implementation, with only half of their student population in Linked Learning Pathway Programs, they offer valuable insights, lessons learned, and wise words to guide others who have the courage to tackle the challenge of preparing every student, every day for an increasingly competitive and shrinking world.

Grading is a "technical process," but how deeply do we consider the mechanics of a grade? On the current 100 point grading scale, there are 60 degrees of failure, and only 40 degrees of passing. In the words of Dr. Thomas Guskey, "A grading scale in which two-thirds of the designated levels describe failure also implies that degrees of failure can be more finely distinguished than degrees of success" (On Your Mark, 28). Does this make intuitive sense, let alone, is it a fair assessment of learning? Join us for Part 2 of our discussion with Dr. Chris Lund (Assistant Superintendent of Research and School Improvement, LBUSD) as we unpack the mechanics of a scaled grading, as an alternative to the traditional grading scale. Could we be on the threshold of better representing student learning in a grade?

Do our grades tell the story of student achievement, progress, or learning that we want them to tell? Who is the audience for our grades? Why does it matter?

Using Dr. Guskey's work around grading as an anchor, listen in and see how we might better help our students "make the grade."

As the single most powerful lever in improving student achievement (1.57 Effect Size), collective efficacy holds a critical role in closing the achievement gap. In Part 2 of this series, three educators dig more deeply into the "mechanics" of building collective efficacy. Listen in on Jennifer Crockett, Kim Duenas, and Amy Pendray of LBUSD as they discuss the enabling conditions, intentional actions, and developed beliefs that nurture powerful instructional teams that engage in rich cycles of team learning.

According to Dr. Hattie, collective efficacy (the belief that together we are responsible for and are able to positively impact student learning) is the single most powerful lever in increasing student achievement, overcoming even socio-economic factors in education. Effective instructional teams (any team that meets regularly for the purpose of learning together to increase student achievement) embody a culture of collective efficacy leading to a focus on improving common instructional practice resulting in increased student achievement for all. Listen to Jennifer Crockett, Kim Duenas, and Amy Pendray of Long Beach Unified discuss their learning about what makes collective efficacy such a powerful force.
