In this episode, we talk to student teachers who have stepped up to fill needs in classrooms as schools struggle to stay open among pandemic demands. But the teaching shortage is not new. What do schools need, and what can we do about it? We talk to Dean Julian Vasquez Heilig, Senior Associate Dean Margaret Mohr-Schroeder, and students Divya Lyman and Kate Black about the situation facing schools across America, what the College of Education is doing to help in our communities, and the challenges and rewards facing teachers in the workforce.
