In this episode, we explore the transformative power of connection in education. Joining us are two incredible educators, Erika Bare and Tiffany Burns, co-authors of Connecting Through Conversation: A Playbook for Talking with Students. Erika and Tiffany share their insights on how meaningful conversations can shift the focus from managing behaviour to building connections that foster student growth, improve classroom culture, and enhance academic outcomes.
Through this engaging discussion, you’ll hear about:
- The story behind Erika and Tiffany’s partnership and what inspired them to write Connecting Through Conversation.
- What "connected relationships" mean in education and why they are vital for effective learning.
- Why behaviour is a form of communication and how teachers can understand the message behind it.
- Practical strategies for integrating connection in education into your daily routine without feeling overwhelmed.
- How shifting from behaviour management to connection in education transforms both teaching and learning.
If you’re ready to take your classroom relationships to the next level, this conversation is packed with actionable advice and heartfelt inspiration!
Rainbows ahead,
Alisha and Ashleigh
