Описание: At a young age, Yolanda’s mother instilled in her the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity. In this talk, Yolanda discusses how these virtues helped her to overcome trauma and provide her hope at various points in her life. An educator for over twenty years, Yolanda uses these life experiences as a vehicle to teach and inspire her students into becoming agents of change. A native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Yolanda started a career as a draftsperson in high school and worked for an engineers' consortium. In 1989, she received a degree in Sociology/Criminal Justice and became a social worker counseling adjudicated youth with reintegration to their communities after returning from juvenile placement. In 2001, Yolanda became a history teacher with the School District of Philadelphia while also earning a Master's Degree in Secondary Education and her Social Studies certification. Yolanda came to Beaver in 2011 and teaches in the Global History Department, where she's currently the chair. Throughout her 20-year teaching career, she's spent time studying and working in Rwanda, Spain, Morocco, Mexico City, and Japan. An ed-tech enthusiast and social justice advocate, Yolanda has presented at various conferences and organizations, including SXSW, EduCon 2.7, PoCC, ISTE, PennPBL, Primary Source, and LearnLaunch Boston. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
