Watch TEACH, Teachers Are Talking, Is the Nation Listening
The TEACH documentary, TEACH, Teachers are Talking, Is the Nation Listening? is a film that features conversations about
the art of teaching and learning by
teachers themselves. TEACH brings an important perspective to the national education debate that is currently being dominated by a corporate led agenda to privatize education and blame teachers for everything that is wrong with education in this country. This movie takes on many questions about No Child Left Behind, high stakes testing, unequal distribution of education resources, and schools dominated by data driven curriculum instead of providing an education that is dynamic, creative, exciting, and joyful. As I state in the movie, every day in the media we hear from the businesses, thinktankers, politicians, and administrators, this movie is about those who don't usually get heard. Many education movies that distort the truth and promote a business view of education have millions of dollars to promote their misinformation about education i.e. Waiting for Superman, please help us get this movie out to everyone in the country. This is the documentary that the nation is waiting for. The filmmakers of TEACH, Teachers are Talking, Is the Nation Listening are teachers in the Boston Public Schools.
Share the spirit of great learning experiences. Please let us know if you wish to tell your stories and participate in a group discussion with other educators.
We are also looking for people involved with education to be part of our current production "Teach". There are many education related stories that should be heard. We would like to include them in our documentary film that will examine issues related educational practices and policies. Our focus will be on exploring what great teaching is and the things that get in the way of that.
If you are a teacher, assistant teacher, administrator, education activist, parent, elected or appointed government official, or person concerned with the current trends in education, we would like discuss a possible interview with you. Please contact us.
