Teaching Perspectives

This project is a collection of interviews of various professors and students at Western Washington University regarding critical pedagogy. Many of the interviewees are in an education related field, and the first episode is an introduction to who I am as a future educator and my thoughts on the questions that were asked to the interviewees. The goal of this project was for listeners to feel like they were eavesdropping on a conversation/dialogue that's culturally relevant. Oftentimes, with research people focus on quantitative research and more solid numbers and scientific research, but with that we tend to forget and diminish qualitative and experiential data and research. This project was to not only bring awareness to issues today's teachers have and will face, but also the importance of listening to others stories and how that can be beneficial for all.
