@millsapscollege Education Department | Educators of & for Dynamic Moments:
"Ah ha!"-"Wow!"-"No way!"-"Hmm..."- "I wonder..."-"That's new..."-"Why not?"
This week one of our Education majors & Ford Fellow, Kasi Matthews, will be presenting her research on “Equity in STEM Education” at the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in Toronto.
But first... a visit to Niagara Falls are in order. #aera18
No air conditioner? No problem.
Millsaps’ pre-service Ts‘ adaptability & resilience were put to test today. Midway through small group work creating digital artifacts w/3rd graders, a spontaneous school-wide dance competition broke out. Naturally, #majorpride was abundant.
Students using cellphones in class? Why yes, of course! What could these “Etho-Education” Ss be doing on their cellphones that is so important? Creating short videos to teach others about the complexity embedded in three essential terms: Equality, Equity, and Justice. #teachms
Dr. Stacy DeZutter shares her non-linear story about her vocational journey becoming a @millsapscollege education professor. Fun fact: Dr. DeZutter was in the Mickey Mouse Club & worked w/Brittney Spears & Justin Timberlake! Who knew? This is what IVI Hour is all about!
Laura Bowden and Dr. DeZutter are participating in the Dyslexia Symposium at @NewSummitSchool learning how we can better serve our exceptional learners! #teachms#teacherprep
Friday: Stacy DeZutter, Assoc. Professor of Education at Millsaps College, will speak about why she does what she does, how she came to be practicing her vocation at Millsaps, and what she has learned along the way for IVI Hour.

A classroom being double booked doesn’t slow down @majorseducate! Getting deep and scholarly in the comfy education suite with @MFGWallace orienting class in their exploration of Etho Education. Only @millsapscollege!
A teacher asked me how I know the students names so fast in my new classroom ... easy, knowing a persons name is one of the most important elements of self worth, it’s acknowledgement & respect, it lets the person know you SEE them.. even at 5. #StudentTeaching2019
Dr. Julie Rust & Dr. Maria Wallace spent the afternoon working w/15 ambitious @JPSDistrict Obama Elementary teachers preparing for an upcoming conference. @iborganization: Keep an eye out for some stellar proposal submissions for the 2019 NOLA conference! #jxn#aroundsaps
Where can you find students who start semesters early, professors who cook dinner for their students, & families who squeeze in a game of ‘Nacho Loco’ all before sending off student-teachers to impact the lives of Jackson children? The @millsapscollege Ed department. Join us!🤗
At Millsaps College, students learn by doing. The Initiative for Vocational Inquiry is a set of interlocking programs on campus that engage Millsaps students with the Jackson community and the wider world.
