A WKYT viewer sent us this video of what they say is a student being blown over while trying to get to class on UK's campus. LIVE COVERAGE: wkyt.com/2024/04/02/fir…
When I received my masters in teaching and taught for a year at the age of 23 I never thought I would one day write a book with a blueprint and tons of strategies to improve school culture, energize teachers and impact students. When I became a speaker I intended to speak to…

As a teacher, you should never want a student leaving class feeling defeated or deflated. As an admin, you should never want a teacher leaving school feeling defeated or deflated. Be compassionate, available, supportive, and encouraging.
Congratulations!! Also, that has to be the best dissertation title I have EVER seen. 👌🏽
Thank you so much for taking time to visit with us, @LtGovColeman!

I just love teaching, seriously. The politics and policy of education try to beat teachers down, and they make a valiant effort, but there is definitely some magic teacher sauce that comes with classroom engagement and student interactions. 🍎#teaching #education #teachermagic
LGBTQ kids in KY are belittled by lawmakers, pastors, classmates, and, sadly, often these days, by schools. Camp Beacon is a FREE camp for them to get to feel safe for a small moment. Please consider donating--the camp runs entirely off of donations. secure.givelively.org/donate/pride-c…
I have a hard time with leaving teaching because I truly believe that teenagers are the best people on the planet. Working with adults sounds so miserable in comparison 😭
A few tips for young folks going into #KYPolitics: 1. Age doesn’t always translate to wisdom. 2. Seek guidance from those whose work you aspire towards, not simply those in power. 3. People WILL underestimate you & try to put you down. Don’t get discouraged—prove them wrong.
New blog post! I did NOT anticipate writing this but felt compelled when preparing for class on Wednesday. lnkd.in/eVcD9uYT
I say this all the time, but replace advisors for teachers when evaluating higher ed.
Last year I asked students to notate the syllabus: what worked for them or didn't, what they liked or didn't, & why. I made time in class for it and kept their notes. Now, updating my syllabus for this year feels like I'm shaping this course *for them. It's the whole point.
How quickly the public turns on teachers, librarians & other civil servants the moment we fail to meet the demands they believe they’re somehow entitled to…
You see how fast Nick Saban was replaced? Let that sink in…

Teachers. After a long day teacher/talking to a class full of students. I feel overstimulated and need quiet time when I get home to unwind. My husband doesn’t seem to understand well. Do you experience something similar?
