Welcome to Just minding my business Vinia today, I am
22
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:39.280
so excited to bring to you Liz Galo, who is
23
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:44.560
passionate about bringing real world hands on learning into classrooms
24
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:49.319
as she has dedicated her career to empowering educators to
25
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:55.319
embrace creativity and problem solving. Wow, I am so excited
26
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:59.719
that you're here today, Liz. So tell us about Liz
27
00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:02.359
and Witness does excellent.
28
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:05.920
Thank you, Thank you for having me. So. I was
29
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:10.159
a technology teacher for ten years and I started Hymakers
30
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:14.960
six years ago to help students have better days all
31
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:20.479
throughout their days by supporting their teachers with really great
32
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:26.520
professional learning and coaching and support. So six years into
33
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:30.080
being the CEO of Whymaker, we have a team of
34
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:34.159
educators who travel the country, in the world a little
35
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:39.120
bit to provide professional development to educators in a variety
36
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:45.159
of different topics and categories, from just instructional strategies to
37
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:48.800
we do a lot of work in the clean energy space.
38
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.000
We do a lot of work with career and technical
39
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:55.840
education teachers, a lot of work now with performance based assessment.
40
00:02:56.840 --> 00:03:01.360
So we are really reaching out educators and our goal
41
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:07.000
is to train one million educators in the next ten years.
42
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.000
I k you have definitely won your way for sure,
43
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:14.879
So give us a little snippet at a day at
44
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:16.159
Whymaker and with.
45
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:21.639
Them a day at Whymaker for me, yes, every day
46
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:26.280
is different for me. At Whymaker. Some days I spend
47
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.879
at conferences. I've been doing its conference season now, so
48
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:33.280
I've been going to lots of different conferences across the
49
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:41.360
region to engage with school leaders and teachers there. I
50
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.439
also spend my time working with my team to create
51
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:49.759
really high quality professional development experiences. So we review content
52
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:53.360
that they're going to share with teachers and make modifications
53
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.000
and edits. And then other times I'm in meetings about
54
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:03.319
finance and meetings about insurance. So every day is a
55
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:05.479
variety for me and I love it.
56
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:12.479
So basically, you prepare your students for future careers. So
57
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.560
tell us what that looks like for that type of development.
58
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:20.839
Yeah, So we do a lot of work with careers
59
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:27.360
and helping teachers understand what careers exist for their students.
60
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.480
So a lot of teachers went to school and then
61
00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:35.360
went back to school, and then went back to school
62
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:41.240
after they got a job, so they really haven't had
63
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:44.839
much experience in the outside world outside of classrooms and schools.
64
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:50.079
So what we are trying to do with teachers is
65
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:55.399
bring in private businesses and government agencies to talk to
66
00:04:55.519 --> 00:05:00.800
teachers about careers that exist at that company or at
67
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:05.199
that agency, and with that information, teachers can then go
68
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:09.560
back to their classrooms and say, hey, kids, this company
69
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:13.519
came and visited last week, and I learned that you
70
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:17.839
could be a drone operator on an e at an
71
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:24.079
electrical substation, or you can be a grant writer at
72
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:27.560
this company who's trying to get solar panels installed on
73
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:34.680
low income homes. So the exposure teachers need more exposure
74
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:38.199
to what careers exist, and we're trying to help teachers
75
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:43.240
understand what careers exist and then provide pathways and conversations
76
00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:47.160
to start with students so that students can get into
77
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:52.360
interesting and fulfilling careers quicker than it has happened in
78
00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:52.839
the past.
79
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:58.480
Yes, absolutely, So, so you do some stuff with clean
80
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:02.199
energy education, so talk a little bit about that.
81
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:10.360
So our country is really the world is really taking
82
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:16.240
a shift to different types of energy sources and respecting
83
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:20.079
our planet in different ways, and we are working with
84
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.800
lots of different government agencies and private businesses to get
85
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:27.199
that message out there. So in New York State. We're
86
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:32.319
working with the New York State Energy Research Development Authority NICERTA,
87
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:36.319
and we are training six hundred teachers in New York
88
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:39.759
State about the New York State Climate Act, which is
89
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:47.120
the nation's most aggressive climate policy to move our state
90
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:53.199
to a just energy transition. And we are traveling the
91
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:57.319
state and working with teachers to teach them about how
92
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:02.959
electricity is generated and transmitted across the state. Why wind
93
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:06.319
turbines in the Atlantic Ocean are going to be a
94
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:11.600
huge part of our energy portfolio. How the switch to
95
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:17.360
electric vehicles, our zero mission vehicles is happening, all with
96
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:22.600
that same goal of providing opportunities for kids to get
97
00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:28.319
meaningful careers that is something that they're interested in and
98
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:29.600
something that they're good at.
99
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:34.120
Now, let me ask you first of all, how do
100
00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:37.439
people connect with you and support your initiatives.
101
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:42.079
Yeah, so we love talking to school leaders who are
102
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.399
thinking about high quality professional development for their teachers, so
103
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:51.000
they could reach out to us and send us an email,
104
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:53.720
They send me an email or head to our website
105
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:59.959
hymaker dot com Why m aker dot com to find
106
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:02.959
and all the information about us and find our contact
107
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:03.839
information as well.
108
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:08.399
Yes, Yes, Wow, this is amazing. So my question is
109
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:13.319
the teachers are getting educated about what's available for the students,
110
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.399
how do they bring that back to the students?
111
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:21.800
Great question. We work with all types of different teachers.
112
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:25.600
So we might, you know, be working with an English
113
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:28.959
teacher and the English teacher has a unit where they
114
00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:34.039
have to write some nonfiction text. So we might work
115
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:37.519
with that English teacher and coach that English teacher to
116
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:42.440
convert that unit to be you know, writing a grant
117
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:50.799
proposal for a new solar field in your neighborhood. And
118
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:54.960
we might be working with a math teacher. I'm going
119
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.000
to give another solar example, but there are so many
120
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:01.879
other examples, and the math teacher might convert an inequalities
121
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:08.919
unit to figure out the difference of the electricity that
122
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:13.360
the solar panel is producing over time. So and while
123
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.279
the teachers are doing that, they're talking about the careers. Hey,
124
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.960
did you know that you could be a solar panel installer?
125
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:23.240
And you know you can get a certification to do
126
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:25.320
that and go get a job and do that right away.
127
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:27.159
That job is in high demand and we'll be in
128
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:31.279
high demand for many years to come. So that's kind
129
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.440
of how we're building it. We're trying to redesign their
130
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:38.759
curriculums little by little so that they include future ready
131
00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:43.159
skills and ideas and career talk that kids really aren't
132
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:44.679
getting anywhere else, right.
133
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.039
And that's important because they have to go to school
134
00:09:47.039 --> 00:09:51.759
every single day, and right now, our world is more
135
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:57.960
to it than English, math and you the stuff that
136
00:09:58.000 --> 00:09:58.679
we grew.
137
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:02.679
Up more right, our world is very interdisciplinary, and no
138
00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:06.480
matter what career you have, you are using a combination
139
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:10.879
of your English skills, your math skills, your science skills,
140
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:15.759
your essential skills, the things that make you a good human.
141
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.519
You're using that all at the same time. And our
142
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:25.039
school system doesn't really build for that, isn't really built
143
00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:27.879
for that. So we're trying to find ways that we
144
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:36.480
can embed that interdisciplinary into a typical standard classroom.
145
00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:41.600
Now does the Board of Education are they welcoming that?
146
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:43.799
How they're receiving it?
147
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:47.240
Yeah, lots are. We work with lots and lots of
148
00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:51.399
innovative schools who are looking for change. We know that
149
00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:56.039
when we work with teachers and we encourage them to
150
00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:59.320
take risks and we support them through it, that they
151
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:06.440
improve their quality of their life and their job. They
152
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:09.399
want to stay at school when they're doing projects like this,
153
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:14.320
and boards of education are really receptive to that retention
154
00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:17.159
of teachers through high quality professional development.
155
00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:21.720
And that's important because I know in Baltimore they have
156
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:26.879
a lot of you know, time off with professional development.
157
00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:31.720
I don't know what that looks like in Baltimore, but
158
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.679
I'm certain it doesn't look like what you're doing.
159
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.120
Well, actually it does. So we've worked a lot with
160
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:40.759
Baltimore City school Yeah, we worked a lot with their
161
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.480
CTE department and their CTE teachers to help them create
162
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.080
really great projects. And let me tell you, those ct
163
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:50.080
teachers are doing amazing work already.
164
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:52.080
I am so happy to hear.
165
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:58.480
Yes, it's incredible what they're doing there, and we're really
166
00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:01.480
happy to support them and continue to improve their instructional practices.
167
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:06.399
Wow, that's you know what I got, I got misinformation.
168
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.759
Yeah, so we're working with the CTE teachers. Right, that's
169
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:13.720
only a small chunk of the teachers in Baltimore City Schools.
170
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:16.440
We would love to work with all of them to
171
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.000
help improve. Wow, the instruction is on the top of
172
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:20.519
my head.
173
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:24.159
Then I'm going to send you a way because what
174
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:28.559
you're doing is so critical to the development of our
175
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:33.799
kids as well as our country, community, country.
176
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:33.720
The whole.
177
00:12:34.039 --> 00:12:38.639
You know, it's going to touch everything. Yeah, everything. Wow,
178
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:42.639
that is amazing. And how do the kids. I'm sure
179
00:12:42.679 --> 00:12:43.559
they pumped up.
180
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:48.080
When kids are doing hands on, real world relevant work,
181
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:51.240
they show up to school. There's a reason for them
182
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:55.519
to be there. They don't feel like they don't feel
183
00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:58.159
like they're just being told what to do when we're
184
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:02.840
asking their input. There is an adjustment period. So if
185
00:13:02.840 --> 00:13:06.039
students are not used to school being this way, we
186
00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:09.960
have to support them through those changes, and teachers have
187
00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:14.039
to work hard to make sure that those changes are
188
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:18.279
being explained to kids and continue to push kids to
189
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.279
think creatively. Because it's easy for kids to just tell
190
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:25.799
you the right answer. I know the teachers looking for
191
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:28.279
a right answer. Let me just get the right answer
192
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:30.759
and give it to the teacher. That's what they're trained
193
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.120
to do. And what we're trying to have builds with
194
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:37.039
schools and teachers is that there's not necessarily one right answer.
195
00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:42.120
We want you to use all of your ideas and
196
00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:45.679
your thoughts and your research and your creativity to come
197
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:49.679
up with a solution for this problem or this challenge,
198
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:53.279
because in reality, you can get the right answer by
199
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:58.440
googling it and that's in your pocket. So we want
200
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:02.200
you to use that knowledge, uh to figure out some
201
00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:06.080
solutions and help and help solve some solutions.
202
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:09.919
And be a part of the solution. Is a whole
203
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:14.039
lot different than just sitting around talking about it and
204
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:17.279
feeling that you can do anything about it.
205
00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:19.720
Right, So I want to give kids that confidence before
206
00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:20.720
they head into the world.
207
00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:22.759
So what other states are you in?
208
00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:27.799
Yeah? So we work in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We're doing work
209
00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:39.519
in California, Texas, Arizona, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania,
210
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:45.679
Pennsylvania last week, Yeah, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh. We're around trying to
211
00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:48.440
do some work in Mexico, cometry of Mexico, and some
212
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:49.559
work in the Middle East.
213
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:56.399
Oh this is amazing, I mean amazing. I am so
214
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.320
happy to hear this because, you know, as we need
215
00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:04.000
to care about our young people period, because they are
216
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:07.519
our future of tomorrow and when we get older, we're
217
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:08.799
going to be looking up to them.
218
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:09.720
Mm hmm.
219
00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:15.960
So getting the right attitude, the right mindset early on
220
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:19.120
is going to be critical to not only their survival
221
00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:20.720
but else as well.
222
00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:23.759
I also think we need to be really mindful of
223
00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:26.279
our teachers and how we talk about our teachers, because
224
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:30.080
without them, the kids are are going to struggle. They're
225
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:32.399
going to suffer the most, and that's gonna, you know,
226
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:35.559
have an effect on us. So we all have to
227
00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:39.440
think about how can we support our teachers. How can
228
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:41.919
we reach out to a local school and say, Hey,
229
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.799
I'd love to come talk to your class about what
230
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:47.240
I do for a living. Hey, you know I have
231
00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:49.919
some leftover craft supplied. Do you want me to donate
232
00:15:49.960 --> 00:15:53.279
it to you? Just this like low hanging fruit that
233
00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:56.080
there's so much that you can offer your local school,
234
00:15:57.679 --> 00:15:59.919
you know. And then I, you know, I have some
235
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.840
time to volunteer. My corporation gives me some time to volunteer.
236
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:06.320
Can I come to your school and help you out
237
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:09.200
for a day in your classroom? And we can't wait
238
00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:12.120
for the teachers to reach out to us, because we
239
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.639
the teachers have so much to do. We need the
240
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:17.320
community to reach out to our teachers.
241
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.960
Yes, yes, And I think that's very very important because
242
00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:25.480
I look at teachers like doctors. You know, teachers develop
243
00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:30.519
our brain our minds, help us to be creative, and
244
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:33.279
without them, where would we be?
245
00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:37.639
Yeah, who's watching all the kids all day, right, and.
246
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.679
As parents, sometimes you know, we can't. It's hard because
247
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:45.759
our homeschool, and I'm telling you it can be challenging,
248
00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:50.120
especially at the lower ages, because you know, you really
249
00:16:50.159 --> 00:16:52.600
have to hand hold them when they get older.
250
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:56.919
You just gotta double check right and motivate them when
251
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:59.279
they get older. They have to There has to be
252
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.679
some sort of internal motivation for them to keep doing
253
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:03.320
what they're doing.
254
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.799
Yes, I can't. Wow. So what age groups do you
255
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:08.400
work with.
256
00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:11.920
We work with teachers who teach kindergarten through twelfth grade.
257
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:17.039
So everybody, Oh, that's amazing. So how does it look like?
258
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:20.319
What does it look like for kindergartens? Just give me example.
259
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:27.799
Kindergarten teachers are amazing, incredibly creative and very in tune
260
00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:36.799
with developmental appropriateness for five year olds, and they have
261
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:42.039
lots of patients. So when we're thinking about, you know,
262
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:46.920
this project based approach, oftentimes with our little kids, we
263
00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:50.039
talk about it as like a class group project. We're
264
00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:55.079
all kind of doing this together. And you know, we
265
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:59.000
talk a lot about with younger teachers about the skill
266
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:04.119
development is necessary. You still have to teach how to write,
267
00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:07.000
how to read, how to do math, like. Those skills
268
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:14.480
are very necessary up until seventh grade. Really like eighth grade,
269
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.160
all those fundamental skills that we teach kids are still
270
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.359
really important to teach. We just need to make sure
271
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:25.039
that we're teaching them skills so that they can then
272
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:28.319
use them to think later and not just get the
273
00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:29.000
right answer.
274
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:32.920
Yes, and that's a huge thing. You need your brain
275
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:36.880
to think. Yep, that's a huge wow. But I I
276
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:40.440
am so amazed at what you've been doing, and it's
277
00:18:40.599 --> 00:18:44.160
very proud of it because people that look out for
278
00:18:44.359 --> 00:18:47.759
our kids and our teachers are my heroes.
279
00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:51.160
Yeah, teachers are amazing.
280
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:55.759
They are amazing. They are so again, how do people
281
00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:57.720
connect and support what you're doing.
282
00:18:58.240 --> 00:19:03.319
