Dr. Dana Goodier

Dr. Dana Goodier has 25 years of experience in education. She has taught World Languages and English and worked as a middle school administrator. She completed her doctorate (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership in 2020. For her dissertation, she researched reasons parents were opting their students out of high-stakes testing at middle schools and how that affected the district's accreditation rating. She often speaks at conferences, providing educators with techniques to minimize off-task behavior and to increase time on task. She is the host of the “Out of the Trenches” podcast, which features educators who share their stories of resiliency. She has also written the book "Out of the Trenches: Stories of Resilient Educators", which features much of her own story in educational trenches intertwined with stories of other educators who have faced challenges.
