Episode 5

Bringing Community Experiences to the Classroom

Published on: 27th February, 2021

Welcome back to FloppED the Podcast. In this episode we will be sitting down with a Business Teacher, FBLA Advisor, Senior Internship Program Leader, and Certified Counselor from New Jersey to talk about providing real-world experiences for your students before and during the pandemic.

Interview Questions: 

The Questions:

  1. Can you tell us a little bit about when you knew you wanted to be a member of the educational community, what you do now, and how you got to this point in your career?
  2. Tell me about the practice that was very valuable to you in the classroom?
  3. How did you attempt to bring that practice into remote learning? What were some of the things that didn’t go as well as you hoped?
  4. What did you finally do that worked? What edtech tools or resources did you use for organizing these community visits into the virtual classroom?

Wrapping up the show: I want to thank Maggie for joining me for an episode of FloppED the Podcast. I would also like to thank our listeners for spending time with us today! We would like to encourage everyone listening to check out and follow Maggie:

About the Podcast

FloppED the Podcast
A Podcast by TreefishEDU
Welcome to FloppED the Podcast by TreefishEDU. This is the show that features teacher guests sharing their stories of educational mishaps or “flops” and what they learned along the way. Why do we do it? Because teaching is tough and we all “flop” from time to time, but by sharing these flops and success stories we hope that you can benefit from their experiences
