A Conversation with Jon Cihlar
Manage episode 266759486 series 2741593
I’m really excited about our first guest, Jon Cihlar. I had the opportunity to meet with him on July 8 of 2020, right in the middle of the summer of our pandemic. We really are so lucky to have Jon on our staff as he brings a really grounded and thoughtful teaching style to all of his classes. Last year, he taught Computer Science and AP Lang as well as a freshmen STEM wheel course. This coming school year, he will be teaching Computer Programming, Digital Electronics, and AP Computer Science, as well as running our brand new CLS stem lab in our LMC.
In our interview, Jon talks about a lot of successes and goals in designing projects, engaging students to persevere in their work, equity in his classroom, remote learning and much more. I want to mention that last year, New Tech named that Jon’s echo agendas were model examples of what they would expect of a veteran New Tech teacher. He’s full of great wisdom and advice, and it was really a treat to sit down with him and pick his brain. I hope you find our conversation as interesting as I did.
