So I'm Teaching Fashion and I Can't Sew Artwork

What the Family Studies?

Welcome to our What the Family Studies? podcast, here to help family studies educators create engaging and valuable learning experiences for their students that will last a lifetime. We will interview those who are passionate about family studies education. Some weeks we will interview a current teacher or professional working in the field who will share their real experiences, insights, and strategies for successful delivery of family studies curriculum. We also want to focus some of our time on your wellness. The last couple of years have been so stressful and your wellness is so important. While we are based in Ontario, we are sure that our podcast will prove helpful and entertaining to teachers in other places too.

So I'm Teaching Fashion and I Can't Sew

January 06, 2023 • OFSHEEA • Season 1 • Episode 8

In this episode we meet Dubravka Prica. She has taughts for the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board for 15 years. She has taught Family Studies for 15 years, with a focus on Fashion. Her start to teaching Family Studies was unique, as she was not qualified and had never sewed. Through some bumps in the road, she has learned to approach teaching Fashion through the lens of a sewing novice. This has helped shape most of her teaching practice. If you are nervous about teaching fashion or would like to learn more about how to create a fashion classroom that focuses on equity and inclusion, this is the episode for you!
