あらすじ・解説
In this episode, David talks with the Principal at Gloucester County Institute of Technology, a progressive high school near Philadelphia focused on academics and preparing students for careers, James Dundee, about building connectivity and rapport with students, developing well-rounded individuals for society, how to teach ownership and responsibility, and more. Having connectivity and rapport with students Hopefully a model they will take for themselves and continue Encouraging staff to offer a friendly face You don't know what kind of day the student has had prior to coming to school Want to identify if a student is struggling - dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, sudden loss, etc. Connectivity of the students knowing that people are there for them Want students to see the human side of teachers and authority “I think that's important for the students to have an understanding that these adults, although there's an authoritative role, it's also a role of coming out of care, and understanding.” Developing well-rounded individuals for society Mindset of everybody gets a trophy/everybody is a winner Teachers that failure is not okay- never learned to fail or overcome that failure Generational gaps- older people weren't all given a prize You have to get out of the mindset of being a victim If you’re going through stuff, you have to care for yourself first. Pull yourself up. Rely on friends, family, teachers, but be able to lift yourself out- take ownership for your mistakes Everybody wants to save everybody out of a situation instead of letting them learn from it How do you teach ownership of actions Don't allow student to push things off on anyone or anything- ask them exactly what was their role in the situation Progressive approach- ask them after what they earned, what are the next steps, how do we help you never make this mistake again? If you constantly beat someone down they will never grow and never change Never give up on someone and make sure they know you never will
