What You Missed at the #ewaTEACH18 Seminar in Chicago

Back to Skills

Journalists from across the Great Lakes region and the U.S. gathered in Chicago Oct. 18-19 to learn more about the teaching profession during a time of transition for the field, and to get story ideas and inspiration.

The event explored the recent surge of teacher activism across the country and the growing mismatch between teacher diversity and student diversity. Reporters also explored teacher prep, teacher evaluation, and dived into data on teacher pensions, salaries, and absenteeism.

In addition, some of the journalists visited the UChicago Charter School Woodlawn Campus to learn about teacher residency programs.

Here is a mix of tweets highlighting various elements of the EWA conference.
