    Voices in Teaching feat. 2020 Nebraska Teacher of the Year Megan Helberg

    Voices in Teaching: A Conversation with Educator Megan Helberg

    This week we are very excited to kick off a new 16:1 series called Voices in Teaching, where we will interview educators who have been recognized for innovation and excellence in their craft. Our first featured educator is Megan Helberg, who hails from rural Loup County, Nebraska, where she taught 8th-12th grade English for 15 years. In 2020, Helberg received the prestigious honor of being named the Nebraska Teacher of the Year.

    Helberg is passionate about Holocaust and genocide education, having received a Fund for Teachers grant to visit Holocaust-related sites throughout Europe and to purchase Holocaust literature resources for her school. Megan was named a Museum Teacher Fellow for the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM) in 2016 and now assists the USHMM as a mentor for incoming teacher fellows. Helberg was selected as a Lowell Milken Center Fellow in 2021, to The Olga Lengyel Institute (TOLI) summer seminar in 2022, and recently was selected to study at the highly-acclaimed institution, Yad Vashem. She is also the 2024 Anne Frank Educator of the Year.

    Megan recently accepted a job with the Anne Frank Center (the Anne Frank House's official partner in the USA), where she now travels the world to share resources, educational opportunities, and peer-to-peer trainings centered on the Frank family, the Holocaust, and the lessons of history that are still highly relevant to today’s learners.

    In this episode, we explore Megan's journey as an educator in the classroom and beyond, including the story of a heartwarming surprise meeting with Dr. Jill Biden at the White House. We also explore the challenges and rewards of teaching in a small, rural community and how teachers might foster a sense of belonging, community, and shared values among students. Megan’s innovative approaches to education, including the founding of a travel club that has taken students and community members around the world, exemplifies her belief in the power of experiences to broaden horizons and strengthen communal bonds.

    Join us for an inspiring conversation that highlights the profound difference one dedicated teacher can make.

  • Charter Closures, Elite College Admissions, and Smart Phone Bans - Edu News for October 2024

    Charter Closures, Elite College Admissions, and Smart Phone Bans - Edu News for October 2024
    2024/10/24
    Charters Closures Leave Students ScramblingNew research from the National Center for Charter School Accountability and the Network for Public Education reveals troubling patterns in charter school longevity. Analyzing over 2 million Department of Education records, researchers found that 55% of charter schools fail by their 20th year, with a quarter closing within just five years of opening. These closures, often triggered by enrollment decline or mismanagement, create significant disruptions for millions of students annually—frequently with little to no warning.Elite College Admissions Arms RaceThe rise of premium college consulting services, like Jamie Beaton's Crimson Education, has sparked fresh debate about equity in elite college admissions. With consultants working with students as young as 11 to craft the perfect academic profile, and boasting acceptance rates 6-7 times higher than normal at prestigious institutions like Harvard and Yale, we're forced to question: Has college admissions become more about costly strategies than merit?UK's Bold Moves Against Phones in SchoolsUK educators and teachers' unions are pushing for national legislation to ban smartphones in schools. A proposed bill introduced by Labour MP Josh MacAlister would require students to store phones in locked boxes until the end of the school day. Early adopters of similar policies report decreased drama and increased physical activity among students. Even Eton College, Britain's most elite boarding school, is joining the movement, having announced a phone ban that started in September 2024. Their approach? Allow simple Nokia phones for calls and texts while prohibiting smart devices—a move aimed at prioritizing learning and reducing distractions.Oklahoma's Ongoing Religious Education ControversyA lawsuit filed with the Oklahoma Supreme Court on October 17th challenges State Superintendent Ryan Walters' plan to spend $3 million on leather-bound Bibles containing the Constitution and Declaration of Independence for public schools. Parents and teachers argue this mandate violates religious freedom by favoring a specific Protestant interpretation.College Sports' New EraThe National Letter of Intent (NLI) system, a cornerstone of college athletic recruitment since 1964, has been eliminated as of October 2024. Athletes will now sign financial aid agreements that may include revenue-sharing contracts—a change following the 2021 Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) reforms. This shift could widen the gap between wealthy institutions and smaller programs, though its full impact remains to be seen.Subscribe to 16:1 podcast for more in-depth analysis of education policy and reform.

    Confronting Misinformation: Lessons from the Classroom

    Election season is upon the U.S., and with it comes a tidal wave of information—some enlightening, some misleading. In our latest episode, we explore the impact of misinformation and disinformation on schools and communities of learning.

    As educators, part of our mission is to help our students become informed citizens. But what happens when the channels upon which we rely are flooded with false or misleading information, fantastical conspiracy theories, and threats to health and safety? How do we equip our students—and ourselves—to discern fact from fiction when misinformation spreads like wildfire?

    Discover how false information is creating challenges in classrooms and administrative offices nationwide, explore essential questions everyone should consider when consuming media (and tools you can bring into your classroom), and learn about strategies and resources including Media Literacy Week and initiatives by the National Association for Media Literacy Education (NAMLE) and National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA).
