I've taught math for four years and I'm going into my first year teaching STEM math. I know how to teach, but I am kind of intimidated by STEM. One problem I'm running into is I often don't know how to balance the idea of repetition and STEM challenges for the students. I've been told by admin to try to relax about it, but I want to do a good job. Another problem I run into with resources is I have a hard time with trying to do too much without any real feedback as to what the students got out of the lesson.
My boyfriend and I have been listening to podcasts like crazy, but something that has been missing is any sort of education-based podcast. So a lightbulb went off for me. What if we hosted a podcast? A week in advance, brainstorm ideas are welcome by listeners, implemented by my students, and then I discuss in detail how the week went with as many of these great ideas as effectively possible.
I will be teaching 7th grade and 7th grade accelerated (which is the second half of 7th grade content and all of 8th grade). I feel this could help a lot of teachers, and I'd be lying if I was saying it wouldn't help me. I also just think it'd be fun. There is no reason for our students to hate math as much as they do in this country.
