Speaking to Educators with Chase Mielke

Why is teacher burnout sky-rocketing despite an increase in professional development for educators?

In Chase Mielke’s experience as both teacher and trainer, he’s found most pro-dev efforts designed to support educators miss the mark. Why? Because, ironically, they’re bogged down in how-tos, theories, and untested application. What’s actually needed, according to Chase, is more compassion, empathy, and tools that have been tested in the harsh conditions of real-world classrooms. 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The critical differences between keynote speaking and professional development (16:55)
• What teachers really think about the content you’re delivering (21:08)
• What “gradient” is in relation to your audience and how leveraging it will make you a better speaker/facilitator (25:48)
• What to pitfalls to beware of in your presentations that could turn the audience off (49:00)
• Online course creation tips and tricks (1:14:45)
