Zandra De Arajuo and Amber Candela, Choice as a Foundation for Student Engagement ROUNDING UP: SEASON 3 | EPISODE 3 As educators, we know offering students choice has a big impact on their engagement, identity, and sense of autonomy. That said, it's not always clear how to design choice into activities, especially when using curriculum materials. Today, we’re talking with Drs. Zandra De Araujo and Amber Candela about some of the ways educators can design choice into their students’ learning experiences.

Two Minute Teacher's GuideSpecial Guest: Zandra de Araujo.2020-04-2021 minTODOS PodcastEpisode 6: Multilingual Students in High School Math ClassroomsMany of us are familiar with techniques to support our multilingual (ie, English learning) students in our classrooms. But is what we are doing helping our students to learn mathematics while also learning English? In many schools, that twin focus on learning math and learning English is raising new questions, reflections, and thoughts for teachers. Myself (Maria), Zandra de Araujo (of U of Missouri), and Griselda, a teacher from southern California, discuss what we know about supporting ELs, and how, in Griselda's words, being the best teacher you can be for your students is "a journey."2020-02-0446 min
