Who Taught You – Celebrating You and Your Fellow Educators

April 26, 2023

Who Taught You, launched in response to the growing educator shortage and the pervasive negative narrative surrounding the education profession, will shift that narrative, and inspire action to elevate the profession that makes all others possible.

Through an impact campaign and docuseries, we will create change by retaining current educators, attracting new ones, bridging the gap in understanding between those who work in education and those who don’t, and sparking purposeful conversations that create meaningful action.

As a State Teacher of the Year or Finalist, you play a critical role in inspiring the next generation to go into the field, and in keeping those already in it, motivated and inspired.

As we build a groundswell of support for educators, you can help by sharing a story about a teacher who has positively impacted your life, honoring a favorite teacher in the Who Taught You Honor Roll, and sharing about the Who Taught You Impact Hub in your communities. We appreciate you and look forward to hearing your educator stories!

Host a free local screening of Oscar-nominated documentary, Fire of Love

January 24, 2023

Together with National Geographic Films, Picture Motion is helping educators, scientists, and more bring the Oscar-nominated documentary, Fire of Love, from director Sara Dosa, to communities around the country through free local screenings, with the goal of further inspiring students and youth to explore STEM education and careers.

Fire of Love shares the extraordinary story Katia and Maurice Krafft, who loved two things — each other and volcanoes. For two decades, the daring French volcanologist couple roamed the planet, chasing eruptions and documenting their discoveries. Ultimately, they lost their lives in a 1991 volcanic explosion, leaving a legacy that forever enriched our knowledge of the natural world. Director Sara Dosa and the filmmaking team fashion a lyrical celebration of the intrepid scientists’ spirit of adventure, drawing from the Kraffts’ spectacular archive. FIRE OF LOVE tells a story of primordial creation and destruction, following two bold explorers as they venture into the unknown, all for the sake of love.

As a part of our impact campaign, we will be creating a discussion guide and setting up free grassroots screenings of the film around the country, with the hopes of bringing the film to students, educators, scientists, and others who are passionate and/or curious about the STEM fields, and for those who this film will further inspire and educate.

If you are interested in hosting a free screening of Fire of Love, or would like to learn more, check out our screening toolkit here, or contact [email protected] for more information.
