How should educators prepare youth for democratic participation at a moment when democracy itself seems so fragile? For ESD's third anniversary episode, Walter Parker, professor emeritus at the University of Washington - Seattle, explores the answer to this question by sharing ideas from his new book,  Education for Liberal Democracy: Using Classroom Discussion to Build Knowledge and Voice. Walter Parker is one of the most influential social studies education scholars of our time. In his new book and on this episode, he argues that education can and must address a twofold crisis in our democracy – a legitimacy crisis and an epistemic crisis.

When JSE-listed Blue Label Telecoms released its annual results two weeks ago, it showed its core business continuing to grow at a respectable pace. Yet investors dumped the share, worried about a lack of disclosure about Cell C's performance. Now, in an exclusive interview with the TechCentral Show (TCS), the company's founders and co-CEOs, brothers Brett and Mark Levy, have spelt out exactly why they believe investors have punished the share, why they decided not to publish numbers for Cell C (this time around), and what their strategy is for the long-troubled mobile operator after the completion last year of its second recapitalisation in six years. In the interview, Mark Levy looks back to the founding of the company more than 20 years ago, how it pivoted into cellular airtime, and its listing on the JSE. The conversation later shifts to a detailed discussion with Brett Levy on Cell C. He answers a wide range of questions, including: • Why did Blue Label buy Cell C in the first place? • What went wrong after the first recap? • What's stop things going awry again at Cell C? • Why is Blue Label pursuing a controlling stake in the mobile operator? • What's the potential upside at Cell C? • Just how important is the mobile virtual network operator business? (Cell C recently concluded an MVNO deal with Capitec.) The brothers also tackle the difficulty in understanding Blue Label's results, driven by the highly complex restructuring at Cell C. They tackle these questions: • Shouldn't Blue Label be doing more to make its results understandable to shareholders, especially ordinary investors? • Doesn't buying control of Cell C expose Blue Label to even greater potential risk? • What's the outlook for Blue Label's core business? • What are the exciting growth areas in the core business, such as betting/gaming? • Is Blue Label mulling a buyout of minorities and a delisting from the JSE? Don't miss the most detailed and information-packed interview the Levy brothers have given in years.

How can we help young people learn to care for their local communities and their natural environments?  Ethan Lowenstein believes that a big part of the answer is place-based education - a method that enables youth to explore, analyze, and begin to address local challenges.  Lowenstein is a professor at Eastern Michigan University and the director of the Southeast Michigan Stewardship (SEMIS) Coalition, which has built a broad network of educators and local organizations to foster place-based education in Michigan and beyond.

This mini-episode provides an overview of a new site that Brett Levy designed to help educators teach about the election: www.teachingelections.orgThe site includes downloadable lesson plans, research articles, and links to various other resources, with new content added every few days until Election Day. The lesson plans featured on the site were designed to be interactive, engaging, inquiry-oriented, and content-rich. For example, one lesson is framed with the simple but important question – Which Candidate Should We Elect and Why? – and has students explore their own political identities, the candidates' positions on issues, and then which candidate better matches their own issue preferences. The site also contains a set of inquiry-based lessons related to the financing of political campaigns and a brand new lesson on how to have a fair election during a period of social distancing.   In addition to these lessons, the site has a page full of links to other great materials for learning about elections, including online election games from iCivics, lessons on voting rights from Generation Citizen, guidance on how to maintain a positive classroom environment during discussions of controversial issues, and an interactive electoral college map from the New York Times. And for those who love research, the site also has a page containing free, downloadable papers on what researchers have learned about teaching elections.  This is all available for free at www.teachingelections.org Young people are hearing all sorts of things about the election, and this site provides materials to help them explore the facts in an engaging way.  If you're an educator, please check it out, and if you like what you see, remember to share it with a colleague. The election's right around the corner, and this is a great time to generate young people's interest in public issues. Thanks!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/esdpodcast)
