In the eighth episode of “The 2023 UCF VLP Institute Podcast Series,” we return to a sit-down conversation with K12 teachers Alecia Bryant (7th Grade Civics Teacher at Meadow Woods Middle School), Angie Hubbart (4th Grade Teacher at Orlando Gifted Academy), and Heaven Wilson (10th Grade World History Teacher). However, having gone through such a transformative morning, the “meta” field trip (Episode 6) and the subsequent roundtable discussion (Episode 7) produced a different conversation we’ve listened to thus far in the series that was exceptionally passionate, reflective, and evocative.
The conversation’s descriptive imagery allows us to further understand who the Veterans assigned to Alecia, Angie, and Heaven were. This imagery also extended into the pedagogical side of this series—as they got deeply personal with their thoughts and feelings towards this Institute’s impact on their profession…ultimately giving this episode an inimitable identity and “face.”
This episode was directed, produced, written, edited, and hosted by Sebastian Garcia, and featured Alecia Bryant, Angie Hubbart, and Heaven Wilson.
Executive producers: Sebastian Garcia and Dr. Amelia Lyons.
Music: “Honor and Glory” and “Real Heroes” by SergePavkinMusic (Pixabay)
