Hello Everyone.
We are so excited to welcome back Dr. Paula Clark and Dr. Kristin Barbour for what we are calling an Education Roundtable. It has been too long since the four of us gathered around our virtual zoom room and talked about the books, articles, and other topics on our minds. In part one of our roundtable, we discuss Hope and Help and scratch the surface into why many kids in K-12 do not like school.
Hope you enjoy!

No - Brianne and I are not snowed in but this article and the weather in the town provided an opportunity for one researcher to explore the every day experiences of belonging. We often forget that belonging is grounded in people, places, and our history. Brianne and I share the article and the discoveries and questions that emerged for us.
Enjoy!

Brianne and I had so much fun revisiting and sharing a very recent article about school belonging. In it, Dr. Kuttner, a professor at the University of Utah, writes about how multiple perspectives inform his definition of school belonging. We discuss the importance of agency, intersectionality, systems, and others.

We hope you enjoy this episode.
