Search Institute

I’d like to alert anyone in the Twin Cities area who is a teacher, knows a teacher, is considering becoming a teacher, or is curious about teaching to a cool event.

I’ve been invited, along with Minnesota Teacher of the Year Amber Damm,to participate in The Current’s Policy and a Pint series at the Varsity Theater in Dinkytown next Thursday, Oct. 8.

Here’s how it’s described on the site:

What makes for a good teacher? What changes do we need to see in teaching to ensure the best futures for our children? How much input should parents have for their children’s education? How much responsibility should they take?

This is for teachers, parents and anyone from undergrads to career changers who is thinking “maybe I’d like to teach.”

Join host Steve Seel for a discussion with our special guests,
Amber Damm, Minnesota’s teacher of the year, and
Nathan Eklund, former teacher and author of “How was your day at school?” (He now works at the Search Institute.)

I’d love to see you there and please pass this onto anyone you think might be interested!
