Alumna Jennifer Macias Morris (MiT in Elementary Education, 2015) was recently selected as a 2021 Grand Prize Winner in The Henry Ford's Innovation Nation Teacher Innovator Awards sponsored by Raytheon Technologies. The Teacher Innovator Awards recognize teachers who inspire students to challenge the rules and take risks, who demonstrate how to be collaborative and empathetic, and who teach the value of learning by staying curious and learning from failure. Macias Morris is one of 10 grand prize winners from across the nation. She is a first grade Spanish immersion teacher for the Libby Center in Spokane Public Schools and was recently profiled in an "Up with Her" segment by Spokane news station KREM 2. "I want [my students] to be critical thinkers," Macias Morris shared. "I don't tell them what to think. It's them ― it's their perspective ― and that's big into developing and empowering students for the twenty-first century skills." Macias Morris completed her program at the College of Education with support from Jennifer Lindsay, Liz Donat, Mary Beth Canty and Patrick Sexton ― all of whom she would like to give special thanks. She was a recipient of the Martinez Fellowship as well as the UW's Ferguson Endowed Scholarship.

Affiliate professor Megan Bang is featured in an article in The Daily Northwestern titled “ETHS stopped a Native student from walking at graduation. Family members say it indicates a need for schoolwide change.” The article features Megan’s son, Nimkii, and how his high school administrators did not allow him to walk at graduation because he added an eagle feather to his cap and traditional Ojibwe floral beadwork to his cap and stole. “I couldn’t just give up my eagle feather in the hands of a stranger,” Nimkii Curley said. “I couldn’t give up my identity like that.” “For us, him graduating and walking and doing what he’s done is an act of leadership,” Megan said. “It’s actually an act of community healing and familial healing.” Megan also speaks about this educational injustice and her son’s act of leadership in the Chicago Sun Times, The Epoch Times and ABC7.
