Confessions of a PYP Teacher
This podcast is for anyone who is seeking ways to design learning that promotes learner independence. It began as a passion project to help teachers during the pandemic and has transformed how I look at learning within my practice. Each episode is 15 to 30 minutes long with thoughtful ideas and some tips to apply back to your practice. The episodes are largely based on the IB Primary Years Programme, but good teaching is for everyone. Even if you are teaching in a different type of program or government school, you can easily adapt the ideas to your learning context. It just requires a bit of creativity and open-mindedness. Happy Listening! For more ideas, visit lugerlach.com.

C12: Agency Can Go Deeper with the SDGs
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we will explore how to bring the three parts of agency (voice, choice, and ownership) together to create a deeper research project. We will go step-by-step in how to allow for voice in choosing a topic, enabling a choice when selecting a UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) as a lens, and supporting ownership of the process and product. We will walk through this process and find alternatives to scaffold the learning.
