传记
山姆米. Intrator is professor and chair of the 教育 and 儿童研究 Program and a member of the Urban Studies Program. He is the founding director of the 澳门葡京博彩软件 Urban 教育al Initiative 他也是 项目的教练, an innovative Smith-staffed out-of-school program that serves children and teenagers in Springfield, 麻萨诸塞州. Intrator teaches courses in urban educational policy and youth development, and he prepares graduate and undergraduate students to teach adolescents through both in- and out-of-school placements.
Intrator came to Smith in 1999 after more than a decade of teaching and administrative service in public schools in New York, 佛蒙特和加州. He believes that carefully designed programs (both in and out of school) led by engaged and committed adults working alongside youth can provide powerful opportunities for young 人 to acquire and develop personal, educational and social assets. 为此目的, his research and practice explore the question: Under what conditions do educational programs—both in the classroom and during out-of-school programs—genuinely matter to youth? Since youth most often cite the importance of a caring, committed and devoted adult as an essential variable in meaningful learning, Intrator also investigates ways to recruit, prepare and sustain high-quality teachers and out-of-school staff in education.
项目的教练 serves as a “lab” for much of Intrator’s teaching and research. 在这个节目中, Intrator works with students interested in urban education, youth development and teaching, 利用体育来参与, connect and empower adolescents and youth living in Springfield. Teenagers are trained and employed as coaches for elementary-aged children living in their communities. The major objective of the program is youth development and helping college students learn to teach and run these types of programs.
Intrator被授予了一个W. K. Kellogg National Leadership Fellowship and, while teaching high school English, was named a Distinguished Teacher by the White Commission on Presidential Scholars. He has written and edited six books, including Tuned in and Fired Up: How Teaching Can Inspire Real Learning in the Classroom (Yale University Press), which was a finalist for the prestigious Grawemeyer Award in education, and Leading From Within: Poetry That Sustains the Courage to Lead (Jossey-Bass), which received the 2009 Nautilus Book Award Gold Medal for Poetry.
