What Do We Know? A Podcast for Teachers

James MacIndoe

The repetitive nature of teaching lends itself to living life on autopilot. That makes it all the more important to step back and reflect. What we do know works? How do we know that? What can we do better? This podcast aims to name and explore the most important issues that teachers face every day inside and outside the classroom.

  • The same but different

    This podcast gives perspective about what it means to be in a classroom. While that may seem boring or one dimentional, anyone who spends much time in one knows it's anything but. So cool to hear from students and teachers who tackle different challenges - some we share and all we recognize. Should be manditory listening for anyone who writes trolling comments about educators.

    This podcast is such a fantastic resource for educators.

  • Informative and Insightful

    This is a great podcast for someone who is in the field and can relate.

    Even though the educators being interviewed all seem to be in the English department, their experiences can be applied to any discipline.

    Keep up the good work!

  • Waste of time

    Can’t believe I spent my Sunday listening to this. Got so bored I fell asleep! Podcasts aren’t your thing, go do something useful in your free time. What a shame.

  • great work here

    Let me begin this review with one of my favorite quotes from the series so far: "Poo-poo" (Episode 3). I love this quote so much. But, don't let it fool you, this podcast is anything but "poo-poo." It's actually pretty great. Referencing the A from TP-CASTT, my attitude only gets better and better after listening to these insightful conversations. I recommend this to each and every teacher in the world. Keep it up, James!
