Tucson teachers surveyed want more support in active student engagement, social-emotional learning, project-based learning and trauma-informed practices.
Genesis Lara With feedback from more than 1,000 local teachers, the Tucson Regional Educator Collaborative is shaping its programs and services to try to meet teachers’ needs as they confront effects of the pandemic.
Social-emotional learning teaches individuals how to identify and manage their emotions in healthy ways. Trauma-informed education considers how trauma can affect learning behaviors. Both have become more prominent needs as students reap the effects of the pandemic, including loss of parents for some.
TREC let participants choose which questions they wanted to provide feedback on, taking into consideration the limited amount of time they had available. In total, 1,043 educators participated. “The beginning of this school year was so wild and they had just been through the previous school year. I think it just talks to how much teachers love their jobs and what they do, but how they also need support and tools to do their work,” Kinser-Traut said.
A two-year Teacher Leaders program also brings together teachers to identify professional learning needs and develop a plan for addressing gaps. “Those of us who are towards the end of our classroom careers, this has been such a wonderful way for me to continue in education and be able to support the newer teachers because we need them,” Vicks-Frantziskonis said.Contact reporter Genesis Lara at [email protected]
