Although eight whole seasons seems like a long time, think back to what grade you were in at eight years old. That’s \u003cem>third \u003c/em>grade! All that’s to say, we’re still learning and growing. One of those areas of growth is our \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/education/538388/2024-25-youth-takeover-teachers\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Youth Takeover (YTO) Teacher Cohort\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

For the first time ever, Solano County (Rodriguez High School) is represented – a major win – in addition to some returning folks! We have a goal-turned-mantra we like to say on the team: nine-for-nine.

One of the ways we do this is through our annual kickoff meeting at KQED, a social opportunity to present this year’s program offerings. Watching all faces both familiar and new filing into the space at this year’s kick off; seeing teachers delighting in the little things like forging a new connection or absorbing the timeline of our historical photo wall; devouring scrumptious Goat Hill Pizza (quite possibly the hidden sixth food group if you ask anyone at the Q); and marveling at the production spaces–really uplifts the importance of holding space for our partners. For them, showcasing this behind-the-scenes look at how all the magic happens to bring content to KQED’s audiences perfectly highlights how very real this opportunity is for them and for their students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_538504\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-538504 size-medium\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2025/01/KQED-Youth-Takeover-Project-Pitching-111424_17-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amanda Vigil (top right) and Cheyenne Bearfoot (bottom right) join Edward Hill (left) at Skyline High School to facilitate a pitch review session.

My main goal as their teacher this year is to foster a love of learning and encourage my students to express themselves and have their voices heard. I want them to know that they have a wealth of knowledge and power within them, and that their thoughts are important enough to be voiced and uplifted by others. Learning is often one-dimensional for students, and they notice that most of the time the knowledge is attempted to be passed down by their teachers. I want them to realize that they are also experts and that we, their teachers and other adults in society, have a lot to learn from them as well.\u003c/p>\u003c/td>\n\u003c/tr>\n\u003ctr>\n\u003ctd>\u003cspan style=\"color: #ffffff;\">…..\u003c/span>\u003c/td>\n\u003c/tr>\n\u003ctr>\n\u003ctd>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_537963\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-537963\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2024/03/Skyline-HS-2024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2024/03/Skyline-HS-2024.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2024/03/Skyline-HS-2024-160x120.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2024/03/Skyline-HS-2024-768x576.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Skyline High School\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Skyline High School\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>Oakland, Alameda County\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://youthmedia.kqed.org/showcase?city=Oakland&school=Skyline%20High%20School&state=CA\">Explore Skyline students’ media\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Michael Roe: \u003c/strong>I’ve participated in Youth Takeover, at my previous school John Henry High School.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We might not want to admit it, but deep in our brains is a desperate desire for social acceptance. And social media takes that desire and cranks it up to 11. So much so, that it’s easy to just conform to what’s already popular and get those likes. And that can spill out into real life. T\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">rends have always influenced style and what’s popular, but it seems like social media keeps serving up the same stuff in an endless loop. Whatever happened to being original?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This season of \u003cem>Above the Noise\u003c/em>, three Bay Area students co-produced an episode about how social media impacts social conformity and our sense of individual identity.

T\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">rends have always influenced style and what’s popular, but it seems like social media keeps serving up the same stuff in an endless loop.

After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
