  • Mitch Weathers on Educational Trends and the Future of Teaching

    Mitch Weathers on Educational Trends and the Future of Teaching
    Apr 30 2025
    The Ruckus Report Quick take: This experimental episode explores emerging educational trends with Mitch Weathers, diving into AI's impact on teaching, the evolution of education's purpose, and whether teaching remains a recommendable profession. Meet Your Fellow Ruckus Maker Mitch became a gifted teacher because he was a mediocre student. Despite taking seven years to graduate college, he navigated the classroom with discomfort. This unique perspective fueled Mitch's teaching approach. Recognizing the importance of laying a foundation for learning, he created Organized Binder. This research-backed strategy empowers teachers to impart executive functioning skills efficiently, preserving valuable instructional time. By establishing a predictable routine, Organized Binder fosters safer learning spaces, shaping Mitch's journey from a struggling student to an innovative educator. Breaking Down the Old Rules 🔨 In this episode, Mitch Weathers challenges traditional education paradigms: Key Insight #1: AI's Impact on Education What's broken: The notion that AI will completely replace teachers within the next decade The shift: Reimagining education as developing transferable competencies rather than just delivering content Impact: Creating learning environments where teachers serve as guides and mentors while AI supports content delivery and practice Key Insight #2: Redefining Education's Purpose What's broken: Education systems focused primarily on knowledge transfer without clear career pathways The shift: Focusing on developing student agency and capacity for learning in new environments Impact: Preparing students for future careers that don't even exist yet through transferable skills Key Insight #3: The Teaching Profession's Future What's broken: The perception of teaching as financially unrewarding and morale-killing The shift: Recognizing teaching as a meaningful profession with immediate visible impact Impact: Creating school cultures where educators feel fulfilled beyond financial compensation Quotable Ruckus "When you boil down education to its raw elements, it's a messy human-to-human endeavor, which means relationships matter." – Mitch Weathers Your Do School Different Challenge Ready to implement these ideas?

  • Reimagining School with WIN Time: Stephanie McConnell on Transforming Student Success

    Reimagining School with WIN Time: Stephanie McConnell on Transforming Student Success
    Apr 23 2025

    The Ruckus Report

    Quick take: The factory model of education is dead. This school leader transformed a failing campus into a Blue Ribbon award winner by reimagining intervention through WIN Time - and now she's showing thousands of leaders worldwide how to do the same.

    Meet Your Fellow Ruckus Maker

    Stephanie is a veteran school leader, author, and owner of Principal Principles. With 18 years as a principal and now serving as an assistant superintendent of schools she's passionate about leadership, student success, and innovative school solutions. She's also the creator of WIN Time, helping schools implement data-driven interventions. Connect with her at PrincipalPrinciples.net!

    Breaking Down the Old Rules 🔨

    In this episode, Stephanie McConnell challenges traditional education paradigms:

    Key Insight #1: Intervention Without Interruption

    • What's broken: The old pull-out model where students leave class for intervention and miss core instruction

    • The shift: WIN Time - built into the master schedule where every student gets intervention AND enrichment without missing anything

    • Impact: Transformed McConnell's school from an F-rated campus to a National Blue Ribbon Award winner in just two years

    Key Insight #2: Flexible Grouping Based on Real-Time Data

    • What's broken: Static intervention groups that trap students in remediation all year

    • The shift: Data-driven regrouping every 2-4 weeks based on student progress

    • Impact: Students can receive double-blocked reading intervention AND math enrichment based on individual needs

    Key Insight #3: Culture of Ownership > Compliance

    • What's broken: Teachers following prescribed programs without investment in outcomes

    • The shift: Challenging the "why" behind every practice and building true teacher ownership

    • Impact: Teachers shift from "I taught it" to "students learned it" mindset, driving real results

    Quotable Ruckus

    "Since the things that matter the most should never be at the mercy of the things that matter the least." – Stephanie McConnell

  • Dr. Anthony Godfrey on Meaningful Connections: Prioritizing What Truly Matters in Education

    Dr. Anthony Godfrey on Meaningful Connections: Prioritizing What Truly Matters in Education
    Apr 16 2025
    The Ruckus Report Quick take: In a system built for efficiency rather than connection, Dr. Godfrey shows how one district is creating space for what truly matters—from targeted reading interventions to wellness days for staff—proving that even large districts can make the human element their highest priority. Meet Your Fellow Ruckus Maker Dr. Anthony Godfrey is the Superintendent of Schools for Jordan School District in Utah, overseeing 58,000 students and 9,000 employees. Appointed superintendent in 2019, he brings 31 years of experience in the district, having served as an English teacher, assistant principal, principal, and administrator of schools. Dr. Godfrey holds a Bachelor's in English Teaching and French from Weber State University, along with a Master's Degree and Doctorate from the University of Utah. He hosts the popular "Jordan Supercast" podcast, using his platform to connect directly with his community. Breaking Down the Old Rules 🔨 In this episode, Dr. Godfrey challenges traditional education paradigms: Key Insight #1: Fund Preparation Time, Not Just Professional Development What's broken: Traditional PD without paid time for teachers to implement what they've learned The shift: Securing board funding for teacher preparation time alongside professional development for their Walk to Read program Impact: Reading scores higher than ever before, despite launching during the pandemic Key Insight #2: Prioritize Staff Wellness Through Structural Changes What's broken: Expecting staff to maintain wellness without creating systemic support The shift: Implementing dedicated "Health and Wellness Days" (three-day weekends) for all 9,000 district employees Impact: Creating a culture that values people over processes, demonstrating that employee wellbeing isn't just talk Key Insight #3: Reimagine Leadership Communication What's broken: Relying on emails and memos to build connections and communicate vision The shift: "Email is for information, not conversation" philosophy and launching a superintendent podcast Impact: Deeper connections throughout the district as people hear their superintendent's voice and style, creating familiarity and trust Quotable Ruckus "Email is for information, not conversation. And many times we want to have a conversation through email. Email is just for information." – Dr. Anthony Godfrey Your Do School Different Challenge Ready to implement these ideas? Start here: Tomorrow: Audit your own communication habits—are you trying to have conversations via email that would be better in person? This Month: Create a plan to pay teachers for their preparation time for your next major initiative, not just the training This Semester: Explore what a wellness day would look like in your school or district—even starting with a half-day pilot could show commitment to staff wellbeing Connect & Continue 🎯 Listen to the Jordan Supercast: https://supercast.jordandistrict.org/ 🔗 Follow Dr. Godfrey: X/Twitter | LinkedIn 💪 Join the Ruckus Maker Movement: https://ruckusmakers.club/join Do you Subscribe to the Ruckus Maker Newsletter?
