The Power of Disruptive Innovation in Education

  Zaretta Hammond is an educator focused on literacy and equity. She is a former classroom writing teacher. And is a lover of all things Marvel. She’ll quote the Lord of the Rings at any opportunity she gets. In her spare time, you’ll find her reading up on cognitive neuroscience or out in nature and can be seen routinely hugging trees.   Show Highlights Culturally responsive teaching isn’t hot sauce The ripple effect caused by leaders ignoring the slow burn of “Cognitive Redlining.” Embrace intellectual curiosity and encourage students to chase their own curiosity.  Instructional Coaches are the “linchpin” to bridging the gap between leadership and teachers for pedagogical legacy. Make that first pancake and build collective intellectual curiosity and transformative practices that are important to your community. Questions to consider in the instructional core include how to help confused students and how to encourage the use of new skills. How to assess the current reality in classrooms to identify areas for improvement.   “Even when we talk about equity, it doesn't always mean you have to be talking about race. You have to have an understanding of how inequity actually presents itself in your environment and therefore know where to place those disruptive innovations, how to get those people that are the resistant minority to be part of the crew, part of the effort to make shifts. How do we reignite their idealism and move them into it? I think it's a small thing. Again, invite them to follow their intellectual curiosity.” -Zaretta Hammond    Get episode transcript here!!   Zaretta’s Resources & Contact Info: Linkedin Twitter Facebook Free Resource: Bridging Community-Building and Becoming a Community of Learners.: https://ready4rigor.com/ruckus/   Read my latest book!
