S3E3: Meet Roni Rohr and Jessi Ruby
Episode description
In this episode of TAB Storytellers, Jen and Abi sit down with Roni Rohr and Jessi Ruby, both PreK-8 visual art educators in New Mexico (Roni) and Colorado (Jessi). Roni and Jessi share what brought them to teaching, the development of their working partnership, and how their current pedagogical venture, [re]Design(ing) Art Education, came about. Among the topics discussed are design-thinking and STEAM, the importance of community and kindness, and why (when considering art education pedagogy) it is critical NOT to reinvent the wheel, but redesign it.
