Techquity: Kristine Napper | Episode 06

"I can remember the frustration of not being able to talk. I knew what I wanted to say, but I could not get the words out..."

- Temple Grandin

The teacher’s primary job is to help students find their own voices. Because when we do, we help them become people who can engage with the world and, ultimately, make it a better place. Language, socio-economics, and physical and neurological diversity should not justify students sitting silently in the back. But how can educators help all students find their voices?

Kristine Napper, is an English Language Development teacher at Whitford Middle School in Beaverton, Oregon, and author of the book A Kids Book About Disabilities. Kristine challenges her students to use technology as a tool to find their voices in order for them to build autonomy and the confidence to engage in the world. She is a TEDx presenter and you can follow her blog at www.kristinenapper.com

In this episode of I have the pleasure to learn how Kristine uses techquity as an opportunity for students to engage in complex learning that takes them beyond the curriculum.
