Building Classroom Confidence for Social Justice: A Conversation with AnnMarie Baines

In this week’s episode of All Things Marketing and Education, our host Elana Leoni sits down with AnnMarie Baines, founder and executive director of The Practice Space, which helps youth and adults in the Bay Area speak in a clear, engaging way that represents who they are and what they care about. AnnMarie also recently coauthored a book, “Amplify Student Voices,” which explores how to cultivate student voices and facilitate equitable participation so that young people are prepared to speak up and lead when the moment calls for it. Throughout the conversation, AnnMarie Baines brings us into the world of building classroom confidence using public speaking, oral communication skills, and project-based learning as tools for equity - all while exploring the intersectionality of social justice.
