Why is Humanization of Curriculum 'Necessary but Not Sufficient' for Student Success?
In this episode, the discussion focuses on the challenges of balancing the creation of wellbeing conditions with the core business of teaching literacy, numeracy, and overall learning. The importance of integrating both aspects is highlighted, rather than viewing them as mutually exclusive. The conversation features insights into effective leadership, particularly in educational settings, and emphasizes the significance of laughter, a playful spirit, and thoughtful interaction with teams. Camille Williams-Taylor, Director of Education at Durham District School Board in Ontario, shares her journey, including the challenges faced as a black woman in educational leadership. She discusses personal experiences from Manitoba to Ontario, time management strategies, and the integration of personal life with professional responsibilities. Camille's thoughtful approach to leadership, focus on student wellbeing, and emphasis on creating welcoming spaces are key takeaways from this engaging conversation.
