Alice Cooper's Journey: 50 Years of Classroom Wisdom

Students like to know what their grades are, and a timely feedback is, I think, vitally important- and that they know at any given time and always stress to them that you're human and that you can err and you have made mistakes and that we're a team in keeping.
Imagine dedicating half a century to shaping young minds. In this episode of Arkansas A.W.A.R.E., hosts Dr. Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Dr. Stacy Moore have the privilege of chatting with Mrs. Alice Cooper, a beloved educator who has spent 50 years in the classroom. The conversation is a delightful blend of laughter, tears, and heartfelt moments as they explore Mrs. Cooper's invaluable insights and experiences. Mrs.
Cooper shares her practical tips for effective classroom management, emphasizing the importance of staying organized, providing timely feedback, and maintaining enthusiasm. She also introduces some unique practices she has implemented over the years, such as requiring students to learn their social security number and develop a career portfolio. But it’s not all about the classroom techniques. Mrs. Cooper also highlights the significance of rest, healthy habits, and building strong relationships with students.
Her stories serve as a powerful reminder of the lasting impact educators can have on their students' lives. Whether you're an educator looking for inspiration or someone interested in the world of education, this episode offers a treasure trove of wisdom and heartfelt anecdotes. Tune in to hear from a true veteran who has dedicated her life to making a difference in education.
