About “career” education

A quick link — read this today. Appreciated seeing a very positive article about education for craftsmanship careers, and a high school that doesn’t segregate it’s “vo-tech” education from the academic life of its campus.

The Atlantic: Career education

Published by RameyLady

I write. I design. I read and think. I teach. I talk to people -- all kinds of people. My career journey includes working as a librarian, teaching for over a decade, working in higher education, freelancing as a graphic designer and marketing consultant, and earning a doctorate (as of 2022). My dream job would cross-pollinate the skills of barista and consultant, helping individuals and organizations understand the problems they face, ask better questions, and design solutions that work in their contexts. My research interests include improving STEM education in college classrooms, Design Thinking and human-centered design, relational and collective theories of leadership, knowledge life cycles within organizations, and faculty development. Somewhere back in time, my students started calling me "RameyLady" and the name stuck.
