Ever feel like you're stuck on a hamster wheel of lesson planning, collecting more resources than you'll ever use and never quite landing on a structure that actually makes life easier? If you're a middle or high school teacher juggling multiple preps, listen up. This week on The Secondary Teacher Podcast, host Khristen Massic is delivering exactly what you've been looking for: the introduce, practice, produce framework for lesson planning. If you've ever typed “planning framework for secondary teachers” into Google at midnight, desperately searching for order in the chaos, you're in the right place.Let's call out one of the big traps right away—overbuilding in the summer, obsessing over hooks, or grabbing shiny resources hoping they'll solve your planning headaches. Host Khristen Massic knows that empty resource collecting (without structure) just leaves you piecing together disconnected lessons and second-guessing every move. She's been there—so it's time to ditch the random and embrace a better way.The introduce, practice, produce framework is not some theoretical concept; it's a concrete, repeatable structure for every course on your schedule. Start with “introduce”—not just throwing content at students, but crafting that hook, sparking genuine curiosity, and making sure students actually want to be there. Khristen shares how her own mindset changed after workshops on student engagement, but the breakthrough came when she realized the hook is only the beginning.After the spark comes “practice”—that messy middle ground where students interact, try, discuss, and explore the concept, but aren't yet flying solo. It's not about independent work or grades. It's about building understanding with guidance, through labs, collaborative problems, or teacher feedback. Khristen notes this is where most secondary teachers—especially CTE and elective teachers—are already doing good work, often without naming or replicating the structure.Then comes “produce”—the phase where students prove what they know, whether it's a project, presentation, prototype, or even a quick exit ticket. Produce isn't just about summative assessment; it's your chance to collect real evidence of learning, big or small. For multi-prep teachers, this repeatable sequence means you can stop reinventing the wheel for every period and start looking at your courses and lessons through the same lens.A killer insight from Khristen: most teachers already have repeatable routines in one class (think consistent lab report formats or project flows), but rarely think to transfer that structure system-wide. The magic spark? Recognizing that the planning rhythm—introduce, practice, produce—works across content areas, grade levels, and even your busiest schedules.The result? Classroom routines become predictable and effective. Students know what to expect, you spend less time explaining “what are we doing today,” and your cognitive load goes down. Planning starts feeling lighter, not heavier. That's work life balance in the secondary classroom—efficiency and sanity, not burnout and survival mode.This episode is for all you teachers who are tired of operating in silos, exhausted by decision fatigue, and ready for a system that helps the lesson ideas you already have finally flow. Khristen is clear: you don't need more lesson ideas—just a way to organize and repeat what already works.Whether you're building from scratch as a CTE teacher, handling multiple preps, or desperate to stay out of summer overbuild mode, this framework travels. You build the structure once, then swap out content as needed. That's working smarter, not harder, with teacher tips you'll actually use.If you're ready to make your teaching sustainable, not just survivable, and create classroom routines that serve both you and your students, tune in and grab the introduce, practice, produce framework. Apply it to every prep, every unit, and every lesson.Tired of chaos? Build your flow, protect your sanity, and teach like you mean it. See you in the (lighter, smarter) classroom.Too many preps and not enough time? Let's make your planning period actually work for you.Reserve your spot in the Unit Planning Lab here: https://khristenmassic.thrivecart.com/unit/?ref=podcast Planning for the next school year?

On this episode of Inside Startup Investing, Chris Lustrino speaks with Dr. Michael Wyand, CEO of Oxeia Biopharma, a clinical-stage biotech company developing a potential breakthrough treatment for concussions and persistent concussion symptoms. Oxeia is leveraging ghrelin, a naturally occurring hormone involved in brain energy regulation and neural repair, to help heal the inflammation and cellular damage caused by traumatic brain injuries. With promising Phase 2a data showing an 85% responder rate among treated patients, the company is pursuing what could become the first FDA-approved pharmaceutical treatment specifically targeting concussion recovery. Chris and Michael discuss the science behind concussions, how brain damage occurs after impact, why “just rest” has remained the standard of care for decades, and how Oxeia's therapy could fundamentally change the treatment landscape for athletes, veterans, and millions of patients suffering from lingering neurological symptoms. They also dive into the company's clinical pathway, the business opportunity behind concussion therapeutics, the role of neurogenesis in recovery, and the broader future potential for treating conditions like CTE, Parkinson's disease, and ALS. If you want to understand the future of concussion recovery, brain health innovation, and biotech investing, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

What happens when Career and Technical Education stops fighting for respect and starts facing a much bigger problem: capacity?In this episode of the Disrupt Education Podcast, Peter Hostrawser and Alli Dahl welcome back Dr. Mark Covelle, Administrative Director of Middle Bucks Institute of Technology, for a bold conversation about the future of CTE, workforce development, and what schools are still missing about student readiness.Mark breaks down why CTE is no longer “dark, dangerous, and dingy,” but modern, relevant, and in high demand. The conversation explores why students are choosing hands-on learning, why traditional K–12 systems are struggling to keep up, and what happens when schools try to scale career pathways without the facilities, teachers, industry partnerships, or real-world experiences needed to make them work.This episode challenges educators, administrators, policymakers, and community leaders to rethink what high school should actually prepare students to do. From student voice and advisory boards to workforce alignment, internships, skilled trades, and the danger of “CTE light,” this conversation makes one thing clear: the future of education is not about proving CTE works. It is about building the capacity to deliver it well.If you care about career readiness, work-based learning, durable skills, student engagement, workforce development, or the future of high school, this episode is a must-listen.Powered by YouScience Brightpath.YouScience Brightpath, the next generation platform helping students make personalized decisions as they move from education to career.

As the global economy has grown increasingly competitive, interest in career and technical education (CTE) has experienced a resurgence among policymakers and educators as a way to ensure that more students leave school prepared for well-paying jobs. Innovative new programs at both the secondary and postsecondary education levels seek to give students technical training for specific careers, durable skills training to prepare them for the workforce, and work-based learning opportunities where they can get hands-on experience and develop connections to employers and the workforce. In this episode, Leigh Parise talks with Kate Kreamer, Executive Director of Advance CTE, the national nonprofit that represents state CTE directors and state leaders of career and technical education. They discuss how CTE has evolved, how it can meet the needs of learners in a changing labor market, and where more research is needed.
This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Edmentum.The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.Today's students cannot afford a college and career readiness system that starts too late, remains siloed for core academics, or treats tangible postsecondary success planning as an add-on. Too often, districts are asking students to navigate a future that schools have not fully prepared them to enter. The challenge is not whether students should be college ready or career ready; it is whether K–12 systems are giving every learner the academic foundation, durable skills, and real-world exposure they need to build a future that fits.In this edWeb podcast, explore what it takes to move from fragmented initiatives to a comprehensive college and career readiness strategy that works across K–12. Panelists share practical examples from a district perspective and discuss how to connect core curricula, CTE, and durable skills into a coherent student experience. In addition, they examine how reading, math, and other foundational skills can be embedded into career-connected learning, so students are not just informed about their options, but prepared to pursue them.This conversation also tackles the policy and funding realities shaping the work. State and district leaders are under growing pressure to align programs with evolving accountability systems, workforce priorities, and college access expectations. Listeners learn how to build local programs that advance state objectives, how to design implementation that is both scalable and durable, and how to enroll and excite learners.Key learning outcomes:Understand the essential elements of a comprehensive college and career readiness program across K–12Learn how to integrate core academics, CTE, and durable skills into a connected and relevant student pathwayIdentify strategies to influence key stakeholders and align local implementation with state policy, funding, and accountability goalsThis edWeb podcast is of interest to K–12 school leaders, district leaders, education technology leaders, school counselors, and CTE directors.EdmentumCreating a world where educators succeed and students thrive, everywhere learning occursDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

A masonry instructor in rural North Carolina pulled a quiet freshman aside and told him he saw something special in him. That student went on to earn two master's degrees and eventually became Executive Director of the National Technical Honor Society. Peyton Holland knows what the right mentor at the right moment can do to help a student and he's dedicated his career to replicating it.He joins host Jason Altmire to discuss how NTHS goes beyond recognition to give CTE students real leadership experience, flexible scholarships, and a community that connects programs across every discipline. Peyton says these opportunities allow students to take responsibility for more than just their grades; they are able to take early ownership over their work and become the leaders that employers want to hire.

Having standards does not mean you have curriculum, and elective teachers know that gap better than most. A course name, a standards list, and a blank planning page are not a roadmap. They are a starting point, and being expected to turn them into sequence, pacing, assessments, and instruction is not “just planning.”This builds on the first two conversations in the series: reducing the pressure to plan before August, then choosing the first unit with leverage. Now the focus shifts to the structure so many CTE teachers and career technical education programs are not handed. Standards tell you what to teach, but they do not show students how to move through it.That missing structure is where teacher workload explodes. These courses often require curriculum design while teachers are actively teaching, especially for a multiple prep teacher juggling several preps at once. That is not a personal organization problem. It is two jobs layered together.The shift is to stop treating the standards list like a curriculum map. Strong teacher planning starts by finding the foundation, separating big rocks from supporting standards, and building a repeatable lesson structure before creating every individual lesson.For elective teachers, the content is rarely the hard part. You know your field. The hard part is turning that knowledge into a course students can actually move through. That is why secondary teacher strategies need to begin with sequence, pacing, lesson flow, and sustainable systems.Real teacher productivity comes from reusable structure, not constantly reinventing materials. Elective teachers are not failing at planning. They have been asked to do curriculum design work without curriculum design systems.

Vancouver-based trial lawyer Robyn Wishart also studied neurology – a discipline that she leverages in the courtroom to get more from witnesses. “I think neuroscience and being able to control our emotions and our brain can lead us on a way, on a path that can move our clients into forgetting that they're in a courtroom and being able to deliver the story,” she explains to host Dan Ambrose. Tune in to learn why she uses a questioning technique called “clean language” to get at what a witness really means behind what they're saying. She will teach that technique at TLU Beach.Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Robyn Wishart | LinkedIn☑️ Wishart Brain & Spine Law | X | Facebook | Instagram☑️ Trial Lawyers University☑️ TLU On Demand Instant access to live lectures, case analysis, and skills training videos☑️ TLU on X | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube2026 Programming☑️ TLU Beach, June 3-6, Huntington Beach, CAEpisode SnapshotRobyn grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, where she escaped the cold through volleyball — playing five years at the University of British Columbia before turning pro.Before law school, Robyn spent four years studying neuroscience at the University of Winnipeg and UBC, where she learned how visualization and attention control translate directly to courtroom performance.Robyn is the only Canadian trial lawyer ever to have taught at the American Association for Justice.Robyn was chosen by 250 professional athletes to be their voice in the Canadian Football League's CTE concussion litigation. The first test case centered on former wide receiver Arland Bruce. In arbitration, her team had no discovery and couldn't do a deposition. “I got on-my-feet admissions I would never have gotten had I not put the work in,” she says.Robyn explains that "clean language" is a questioning technique that removes a lawyer's assumptions and redirects focus entirely to what a witness truly wants to say, using the witness's own metaphors to draw out deeper, more powerful testimony.Robyn argues that if lawyers leave deposition techniques at the door of the courtroom, they are leaving critical information on the table — the very information a jury needs to understand negligence and damages.Produced and Powered by LawPods

The Future of Workforce Development & Talent with PJ McGrew Brought to you by End-to-End Services and Lightleap AI (lightleapai.com) Guest: PJ McGrew, SVP of Talent Strategy and Programming, Conexus Indiana Episode Summary Host Dr. Rod Berger sits down with PJ McGrew to explore how Indiana is rethinking workforce development for the modern manufacturing era. PJ shares his journey from state government to Conexus Indiana, and how a network of 130+ manufacturing companies is co-designing education pipelines that prepare students for an AI- and automation-driven future. Key Topics Covered PJ's Background – From the Center for Education and Career Innovation under Governor Pence, to Chief of Staff at the State Board of Education, to Education Policy Advisor under Governors Pence and Holcomb, to the Governor's Workforce Cabinet — PJ's career traces the evolution of Indiana's education-workforce alignment efforts. Conexus Indiana & the Industry Talent Association – How Conexus, part of the CEOs of Indiana Corporate Partnership, brings together 130+ manufacturers to identify workforce needs and influence the education system accordingly. Skills-First, Not Job-First – Manufacturers pushed for building broad, foundational skills over narrow occupational training — recognizing that integrated, cross-functional roles are becoming the norm on the modern factory floor. The Retirement Cliff – 30%+ of Indiana's manufacturing workforce is over 55. Recruiting the next generation through exciting, technology-forward programming is critical. New Indiana Diploma Seals – Approved in December 2024, six new diploma seals include three that require work-based learning (75–650 hours), creating formal pathways for apprenticeships and internships. The Modern Apprenticeship Model – Inspired by Switzerland and Germany's employer-led vocational systems, Indiana's apprenticeship pilot (launched 2020) has served ~600 students. A new occupational standard is being ratified with 6 employers hosting ~10 apprentices in an upcoming pilot phase. Earn Indiana Program – A work-study-style program offsetting ~50% of intern/apprentice wages, lowering the barrier for employers to engage students early. Blind Spots in the System – Fragmented funding streams, transportation barriers, lack of local intermediaries, and siloed program design are key challenges that need system-level solutions. Cross-State Learning – Indiana was an early mover on industry talent associations; now states like Colorado are adopting the model. Cross-state knowledge sharing is active but nuanced, given regional differences. Pathway Consolidation – Plans to consolidate Indiana's 10 manufacturing CTE pathways into fewer, competency-aligned tracks to reduce confusion and better match employer needs. Quotes to Remember "If we're gonna design this new system, we need to show students that they can have a career in manufacturing." "Listening to employers earlier in the process means students are better prepared — and employers save on retraining costs." "We need local intermediaries to translate what employers need into what schools and students can actually access."

Stephanie Hoffman is back on the show, this time as the new Director of Industry Development and Engagement at Miller Electric. Jason and Stephanie catch up on her time away from the industry, what pulled her back, and the work she is now leading across education, business development, national accounts, customer experience centers, and process training for one of the biggest names in the trade. The conversation covers Miller's Instructor Conference happening this July at the Appleton, Wisconsin headquarters in partnership with Fox Valley Technical College, and why Miller is approaching CTE programs as true partners instead of just placing blue boxes in the corner of the shop. Stephanie also breaks down the data center boom that is about to reshape welding, the shift away from wind energy, the role of small modular nuclear reactors in powering AI, the real difference between renewable and clean energy, what tariffs are doing to American steel, and why the next ten to fifteen years are going to make this industry almost unrecognizable. Stephanie also opens up about being the first female to graduate from her welding program in New Jersey, the realities of a trade still under ten percent female, the mental health toll of being a national spokesperson, and what it took for her to step back, regroup, and come back stronger than ever.
Tiger Talk Podcast by Northeast Mississippi Community College
Northeast Mississippi Community College President Dr. Ricky G. Ford and Marketing and Public Relations Specialist Liz Calvery look at what piece of advice that President Ford would give to a student graduating from Northeast. Ford not only shares one piece of advice, but offers multiple insights to help graduates transition into the workforce or continue their education at a four-year college or university. He emphasizes that graduation is not the end of learning, but only the beginning, reminding students that growth continues every single day. Ford encourages graduates to keep showing up, noting that effort is never wasted — even when no one is watching. He highlights the importance of character and integrity as some of the most valuable assets a person can possess, while also stressing the need to remain humble and never forget those who helped along the way. Above all, Ford reminds students that they carry with them their experiences, resilience, and a powerful personal story that declares, “I made it. I am worthy of who I am and where I'm going.” Plus, get the latest updates on athletics, academics, workforce development, and all the incredible things happening at one of the nation's premier community colleges.
You know that moment when the last weeks of school hit, and you see your students checking out—mentally, physically, or both? The challenge of end of year activities when students check out feels all too real in the secondary classroom, especially for teachers balancing multiple preps. If you're stuck between throwing on a movie no one really cares about or assigning meaningless busywork, you are not alone. The truth is, those strategies don't serve you or your kids—not when the school year's natural chaos takes over and normal routines shred themselves.Host Khristen Massic calls it like it is: teaching bell to bell is a pipe dream when half your class is at assemblies, half are done early, and the rest are still catching up. It's not a planning problem. It's that the secondary classroom at the end of the year has its own rules—and expecting normalcy is a setup for burnout. Instead of fighting the chaos, you need teacher tips built for this exact season.So what's the better way? Khristen lays out three end-of-year activities that hit the middle ground—not all rigor, not all fluff—and actually fit this wild stretch. Think of it as survival mode with purpose. Whether you're running a CTE class with hands-on mess or any elective with mixed grade levels, these are built for you—no need to rebuild your curriculum just to limp across the finish line.First up: whole-class games that actually keep everybody engaged, not just the students who want to perform. Forget leaving half the class gaping at a peer up front; go for activities where everyone participates at once, like quick review games with whiteboards or team-based error-spotting challenges. One story Khristen shares: she loves using games like Taboo and Scattergories, twisted to fit any content area, because they ramp up energy without asking for a full-on lesson overhaul. Set a timer, lay down your ground rules, and get going—fast rounds, high engagement, then back to calm.If games don't fit your groove, reflection is your golden ticket. Think five-minute prompts that help students process what they actually learned this year. What worked? When did they zone out? What skills did they pick up since September? Khristen champions snappy written responses, partner talks, or a tight whole-class dialogue with a cap on time—so you all get the insight without dragging it out. The magic here? You keep the reflections for yourself. They're not just for students; they give you real teacher time management data you'll want when planning next year's routines.Then there's the third option for wrapping up the year strong: invite students to rebuild part of your course. Hand over the reins (with guardrails)—let them suggest changes, but only if they can back it up with what to keep and why. Go specific: have them rewrite directions, improve a rubric, or draft a help sheet they wish they'd had. Khristen insists these rebuild sessions are not just venting but focused on what genuinely helps; it's student-driven feedback that makes your secondary classroom smoother for next year without you flying solo.This episode's teacher tips are for any middle or high school teacher staring down an unpredictable ending to the year, especially if hands-on spaces, mixed level groups, or constant schedule changes have you questioning if you're even doing it right. Khristen delivers this with the style of someone who's been in the trenches—as an engineering teacher herself she's felt how the whole CTE classroom ecosystem gets upended every May.So what's the bottom line? Don't force a normal system onto an abnormal week. Pick one approach—a purposeful game, a quick round of reflection, or let students help you rebuild—and own it. You don't have to create the best lesson plan ever; you just need to finish well, for both you and your students.Share this one with a colleague who's surviving these last weeks or tag Khristen Massic so you're not in the end-of-year teacher struggle alone. Wrap it up, land the plane, and remember—chaos doesn't need to mean giving up on what works for you and your students.You've got two weeks left—make them count without losing your mind. Onward, rebels.Too many preps and not enough time? Let's make your planning period actually work for you.Planning for the next school year?

You can be surrounded by a sea of teachers and still feel absolutely alone. That's the hard truth at the heart of this week's episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast. If you're searching for the real story behind “the hidden loneliness of multi-prep teaching,” host Khristen Massic is calling it out—plain, raw, and with a fighting spirit. This is for every secondary teacher juggling multiple preps, CTE classes, electives, or singleton roles. That feeling of showing up every day and still being unseen? It's not in your head, and it sure as heck isn't your fault.Too many middle and high school teachers walk into faculty meetings hoping for support, only to realize the systems around them aren't built for what they do. You sit through talk about curriculum pacing and collaboration models designed for the big core subjects, while your reality—lab setups, electives, or the one-of-a-kind CTE course—gets overlooked. Host Khristen Massic shares a gut-level honest anecdote about sitting silently in meetings, thinking, “None of this applies to me.” It's not that colleagues are unkind. It's the structure itself, and you end up translating every tip or strategy to fit your classroom, often feeling like you're doing extra invisible labor that no one recognizes.The episode digs into how professional learning communities and district-wide collaboration often leave singleton or multi-prep teachers out in the cold. The expectation is that every teacher can easily collaborate with a team teaching the same subject, make real-time tweaks based on shared data, or co-design assessments. But when you're the only one teaching your subject—maybe in your building, maybe in the whole district—those “collaboration” teacher tips can feel like a joke. You're not able to meet with a group for feedback when you are the group.Khristen gets real about how exhausting it is to keep modifying advice, curriculum resources, or faculty meeting takeaways into something you can actually use in the secondary classroom. That extra workload? It's invisible labor, and it gets lonely. If you're tired of trying to make yourself fit into systems that never seem to work for multiple preps, you need to hear this: you're doing harder work. And it matters.But here's where the script flips—a better way, born out of experience and a whole lot of rebellion against doing things the “expected” way. Khristen gives permission to stop forcing yourself to collaborate or run your classroom like the core content teachers. If the system can't (or won't) give you what you need, go find it elsewhere. There's power in seeking out other multi-prep or singleton teachers, especially online, where you can build your own support network. Sometimes that community may be miles away or in different districts, but they get it. They don't need you to explain why your routines look different or why you can't use the standard pacing guide.You'll leave this episode knowing you can stop feeling guilty for not collaborating the “right” way. You get to design systems, classroom routines, and supports that work for your reality. For example, Khristen talks about how she stopped depending on meetings to magically address her needs and, instead, found meaningful connection online with other teachers walking the same path. Adaptation isn't weakness—it's how secondary teachers like you keep showing up and making it work, day after day.The episode doesn't sugarcoat it—it's still hard to be the only expert in your subject, shouldering all the prep and decisions alone. But just because you're structurally isolated doesn't mean you're not a damn good teacher. Host Khristen Massic makes it clear: you're not failing if you don't fit the core content mold. In fact, the fact that you're still in the fight, building relationships with students and keeping your classroom afloat, says everything about your tenacity.If you're a middle or high school teacher—especially a multi-prep, singleton, or someone teaching electives and CTE classes—this one is for you. Drop the guilt, name the loneliness, and go find your people (even if it's not in the teacher's lounge). You're seen and valued, and you are absolutely not alone in being alone.So share this episode with every teacher who's ever felt invisible, tag host Khristen Massic on Instagram, and remember—you get to write your own playbook in the secondary classroom. Keep teaching against the grain.Nobody else gets to define how you thrive.Too many preps and not enough time? Let's make your planning period actually work for you.Planning for the next school year?

They are getting top notch on-the-job training by industry professionals while still in high school. On this episode of the Supercast, hear from some high school students themselves about all the benefits of internships offered in Career and Technical Education or CTE. Find out how internships allow juniors and seniors to have fun doing what they love, while exploring career paths, building professional networks, gaining industry-recognized skills, and earning high school credit. Audio Transcription Teacher: They're working in an area that they're interested in pursuing once they graduate from high school. Student: I've always been passionate on working things, but you know mostly cars and smaller pickup trucks, so working on a bus, it's a whole other story. Student: I love the relationships that we have with everyone here. It feels like you actually work here. [Music] Anthony Godfrey: Hello and welcome to the Supercast. I'm your host, Superintendent Anthony Godfrey. They are getting top-notch on-the-job training from industry professionals while still in high school. On this episode of the Supercast, hear from some high school students themselves about the many benefits of internships offered in Career and Technical Education, or CTE. Find out how internships allow juniors and seniors to have fun doing what they love while exploring career paths, building professional networks, gaining industry-recognized skills, and earning high school credit. [Music] Anthony Godfrey: We are here at the Transportation Department talking with Melissa about the internship that students are participating in here as mechanics in the Transportation Department. Melissa, introduce yourself and tell us a little bit about this program and how it works. Teacher: Sure. So my name is Melissa Goble. I'm the CTE internship teacher for Jordan School District. This program is …. the students apply for it. They interview. We place interns in all CTE pathways. This just happens to be one of them. Once they're in the program, they have to get a minimum of 40 hours of internship time, and then they also complete a LinkedIn profile. We work on some employability skills, things like that. We just help mentor them through the semester. Anthony Godfrey: A lot of the internships are created with outside companies and other groups, but we get to benefit from these students and what they're learning right here in the Transportation Department. That's what's unique about this one. Teacher: Yes. It's great. We are very excited that our own district took on students. We're hoping that it will spread the excitement because it is beneficial. The kids get to be invested in their district. They're getting to learn new things, and they're with our own people. Anthony Godfrey: Now, you started recently in your role in the last year or two, and I have seen a real uptick in just presence on LinkedIn, and internships have really been propelled since you started, and we've added this emphasis on internships. Just talk generally about what would attract a student to an internship and the kinds of internships that we have available in the District. Teacher: What attracts them, generally what I find, attracts them to the internship is the opportunity to work with industry. They're working in an area that they're interested in pursuing once they graduate from high school. They're meeting people who could give them recommendations, mentor them, help point them in the right direction. Sometimes they know what they want to do, but they don't know how to get there. I also have students who come to my program because they think they know, and then they find out that they want to go a little bit different direction, which is also a great way to get through my program. Anthony Godfrey: It's the perfect time to find out that this is not the career for you. A lot of times people love what they try, but if you don't, this is the time to find out, and that's long been something I knew was a benefit of CTE programs. Teacher: Absolutely. And they also, when they're working in industry, they find out that there's pathways they didn't even know about that are related to what they're interested in. It's just this might be a little bit more interesting, or it might be a little bit more accessible for them. And so that is awesome as well. And then we have, we do have a lot of internships. In fact, I have joked that I'm getting to the point where we have more internships than I have students right now. I need to switch my focus a little and really start targeting them because we've had so many great industry partners step up and offer us multiple opportunities. And from anything from our diesel students, we've got students who are doing aviation internships, engineering, business, all over. We're all over the place. Anthony Godfrey: So if someone with a business is listening and they think, "I'd love to have a couple of interns and I think I'm aligned with the CTE pathway," do they just reach out to you? We can put your email address in the show notes, and then you can get them set up with some great students. Teacher: Yeah, yeah, that would be great. I also can help them get into the schools a little bit before they take interns. If they want to do some job shadows or maybe a tour or something like that, I'm absolutely the person that can help them. Anthony Godfrey: Fantastic. Is a job shadow kind of a precursor to an internship sometimes? Teacher: Yeah, so we do have some programs that, well, in fact, Diesel, they go in their first semester, they spend time doing job shadows, so they'll spend just a few hours at different locations and they get to see different types of industry that's within their field. And then we go for the internships second semester. Anthony Godfrey: Wonderful. Well, thank you very much for everything you're doing to provide these opportunities for students and for businesses to benefit from these great students We talked about what businesses can do. If a parent or student's listening and they would like to be part of an internship next year, how do they go about doing that? Teacher: Well, there's a couple of ways that they can do that. First, the JordanTech.org is our website and our applications open every year in February, March timeframe. They can apply that way or my application actually stays open all year and they can go out to JordanTech.org again, but go to the CTE internship webpage and I have information there that they can apply. So it involves doing a resume and letting me know what they're interested in. And then I also should mention that one of the requirements for applying to my program is that they do have to have some coursework in their background. Anthony Godfrey: Okay. Wonderful. Richard, let's talk about Diesel Mechanics specifically and these students. Introduce yourself and tell us the history of internships in the Diesel Mechanics program in Transportation. Richard Burrell: My name is Richard Burrell. I'm the shop coordinator, shop foreman for Jordan School District here. I have 15 employees out here in the shop with me. We keep tabs on about 500, 600 vehicles. Anthony Godfrey: Yeah. Wow. Richard Burrell: So we're a full-time job. Anthony Godfrey: Millions of miles. Richard Burrell: Every day. So, and the internship, when I first started back in 1989, internship, we'd take on the interns from the schools like we did here, the colleges. And we would bring a couple of kids in and they'd work with us and the object of the game is to give them every chance what we do out here every day. I mean, oil changes, we do that a lot, but we do brake jobs, we do engine work, we do everything out here. So these kids, three kids right here, get in the middle of it all. I put them with each mechanic out there. It takes on a kid. It's a supervisor position. So they watch him and they teach him everything that goes on out here and what we have to do. Some days it's repeatedly learning how to do services, but they get into other things too, brake jobs and everything else and go with it. It takes a lot to keep these things on the road every day. Anthony Godfrey: Yes, it does. And we're glad to have their help. Tell me about these three students. Richard Burrell: These are great kids. They came in during their spring break time to work with us because we worked here. So they wanted to come in and keep playing. So we let them come in and work with us. Anthony Godfrey: That's awesome. Richard Burrell: And they enjoy what they're doing out here. And they're seven o'clock in the morning, they're here and they're here till ten o'clock every or twice a week. And they love what they do. Anthony Godfrey: I didn't know I was showing up so late into their shift here. Richard Burrell: I told them they had to stay somewhat clean today. Anthony Godfrey: All right. Well, all bets are off after we're done. You can get nice and dirty. Well, thank you for everything that you're teaching these students and the opportunities you're providing for them. Richard Burrell: We love these kids. They're good. Hopefully it can work out. When some of us retire, we can move other kids into this place. Anthony Godfrey: Well, you started just after Reagan was no longer president. So I mean, hopefully we have you for a few more years. Richard Burrell: Not too many more. But there's a few. Anthony Godfrey: All right. We'll get you for as long as we can have you, Richard. Stay with us when we come back.

Female Voice: Does your student want to become a veterinarian, commercial pilot, programmer? Maybe they want to make a difference as a dental assistant. These are just some of the programs offered as part of career and technical education. CTE in Jordan School District. CTE provides the technical skills needed to prepare students for future employment or for a successful transition to post-secondary education. Career and Technical Education provides work-based learning opportunities. We partner with industry experts to offer apprenticeships and internships with students working in the real world at real jobs while going to school. The CTE experience starts in our elementary schools with the Kids' Marketplace and grows through middle and high school. To explore all CTE has to offer in Jordan School District, visit cte.jordandistrict.org today and let's get your child started on the pathway to a profession. Anthony Godfrey: All right, Richard. We're walking through the facility here and this is just a few years old. Talk to me about this facility. Richard Burrell: This is a four-year-old shop. We had it, the District, finally had it built four years ago. It's the best one in the state. Everybody's dreaming on it. Anthony Godfrey: Good. I like hearing that. Richard Burrell: Fourteen days. I have enough for everybody to do their work on here. These morning guys right here, these are the guys that do all the heavy stuff for me. These are the ones the kids work with. I split them up with each mechanic out here. Carl right here is doing suspension work on this thing. He's been noisy for the last two days out here. We're doing engine work. We do all sorts of stuff here. These guys stay busy and these kids like to learn. I split them up differently every day. So if he does suspension one day, he'll do something else the next day. Anthony Godfrey: Oh yeah, so they get the variety. Richard Burrell: They've got to get in there and learn. Yep. Anthony Godfrey: Yep, great. Male Voice: Chase that wire. And he started from the battery. It's right here at the battery that he's... Anthony Godfrey: We're talking now with three students here who are part of the Diesel Mechanics internship program in Transportation. Tell me your name, your grade, what school you're from, and then we'll talk a little bit about this program. Student: My name is Fred Bond. I'm a senior at Bingham High School. Student: Maverick Brown, also a senior at Bingham. Student: I'm Garrett Lewis and I go to Mountain Ridge. I'm a senior. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me what drew you to this program. What got you interested in Diesel Mechanics? Student: I've just been working on cars in my driveway for years. My dad works with FedEx and so I've just always been around semi-trucks and heavy-duty diesel. And so when I eventually got to the point where I was kind of looking for a career to go into, I decided that just being a mechanic was where I wanted to go, and I kind of went towards diesel because, like I said, I've been around them a long time. And so I got the opportunity to come here, and I just love doing it. Anthony Godfrey: Your experience here has made you more interested in becoming a diesel mechanic. Student: Absolutely. Anthony Godfrey: What is it about the experience that you've liked the most? Student: Just the way they work. It's kind of they give you time to do everything the right way. You're not rushed. You're able to do everything 100 percent, get it back on the road the way it came from the factory. Anthony Godfrey: Fantastic. What do you love most about this program? Student: I like the real-world experience, like actually working in a workplace environment. It's more professional, and it looked at on resume, and we get to actually work on things. Anthony Godfrey: Is the work harder or easier than you thought? Student: It's heavier. Anthony Godfrey: Describe that. Student: Well, everything's heavy. Just like him, I've always been passionate on working things, but mostly cars and smaller pickup trucks. So working on a bus, it's a whole other story. Everything's tripled the weight and size. Anthony Godfrey: Have you been able to convert a school bus into a transformer yet? Student: Not yet, no. Still working on it. Anthony Godfrey: That's toward the end of the semester. What drew you to diesel mechanics initially? Student: Just the passion for working on things and then of course the workplace experience. Anthony Godfrey: Okay, great. Tell me about your experience here. Student: My experience has been great. I initially wanted to go into the program. I liked the CTE stuff and the hands-on stuff. I like learning with my hands and doing things more. I began employment just like changing oil. So I had a little bit of experience working on cars. Then this opportunity presented itself, and I decided to take it. Then I had the internship, and this has been really great for getting real-world experience compared to just like in the classroom where it's not quite the same, but working on these school buses has been really great. Anthony Godfrey: Does this make you more interested in a career in diesel mechanics? Or is this just something you do with your hands that's going to help you along another path? Student: It's made me more interested. It's definitely taught me a lot of things. Some good things, some bad things about the industry. What direction in the industry I want to go. It's been really great to learn the ins and outs of what it's like working. Anthony Godfrey: Has it opened up some other directions that you might choose by being here? Student: Somewhat. Personally, I'd like to go into diesel, but then maybe go into a little bit more management, business-related stuff. That's just me personally, but I really enjoy working on these trucks and machines and stuff. Anthony Godfrey: Having the hands-on experience can really set you on that path and give you some experience that allows you to be effective as a manager. Student: Oh yeah, for sure. I've seen my employment translate over to my good classroom and this internship. Anthony Godfrey: Right. I'm glad that you've seen a relationship between the two. How about you? What are you thinking career-wise? Student: Well, at first I want to work on heavy duty machinery, and then later on I want to start my own performance shop. Anthony Godfrey: Oh, nice. That's great. Tell me about something that you've learned in your experience here. Either mechanical, technical, or just about being at the workplace generally. Student: When school buses come into you, sometimes it's diagnosing issues. It isn't as easy as it always seems. Sometimes it's a way longer process than you initially think it will be. It's just the range of different things that you see here. It's not just five different failures that happen all the time. You get so many different things on these buses that you have to go through. Anthony Godfrey: But the problem-solving aspect of it must be pretty satisfying when you do figure out what's wrong. Student: Oh, absolutely. Anthony Godfrey: Yeah, that's awesome. How about for you? Student: All the tools. There are so many tools. There's a tool for every job. Having the right tool will make everything easier. For the tires, getting those tires off by themselves would be crazy hard. But they've got that tool for it so it makes it way easier. Anthony Godfrey: So the right tool for the right job and you're way ahead. Student: Yeah, for sure. Anthony Godfrey: There's a life lesson in that. And for you? Student: For me, it's just doing the job right and making sure you have a high-quality of work. One of these guys out here really takes pride in doing it correct the first time. All the guys take pride in doing it correct the first time. They don't want to have buses coming back with problems that they quote “fixed.” They cut corners. So it's been really great to learn how to do the job right and learn to always do the job right so that you don't have problems. Anthony Godfrey: Pride in your work. Again, something that will translate to whatever you end up doing. Student: Oh yeah, definitely. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me about Richard and the group. What's it like working with the crew? Student: It's super chill. I show up and we kind of sit down for a second. Richard gets us all situated and then he's like, "All right. I'll put you with this guy today. I'll put you with that guy today." No. And then we just kind of follow the guys around and they're like, "All right. Here's what we're doing. Here, pass me this. Take this bolt off. Take this thing off." And then some guys teach more than others, but it's always a good learning experience. Student: Oh, it's great. Everybody's positive for the most part and it's always a good time to joke around with people in the real world experience and actually get to work on things and practice taking stuff apart and put it back together in the correct way. Anthony Godfrey: Excellent. Student: I love the environment here with the people. I love the relationships that we have with everyone here. It feels like you actually work here. It's not scary to go up to them. We've been getting to know all the people here. It's not intimidating or anything like that. You just get to talk to them like they're your buddies. Anthony Godfrey: Fantastic. I love that. So, well, we're very lucky to have you here and thanks for taking time to talk with me today. I know you've got work to do. [Music] Anthony Godfrey: Thanks for joining us on another episode of the Supercast. Remember, “Education is the most important thing you'll do today!” We'll see you out there. [Music]

RUNDOWN Mitch comes in hot after getting a text from Hotshot admitting he had zero interest in watching The Masters — and the argument spirals from there. Its a classic Mitch vs. Hotshot clash: golf relevance, sports fandom standards, and "major" events. Plus, a brutal (and hilarious) birthday quiz that proves the vacation brain is very real. Mitch runs through Rory McIlroy making history with back-to-back wins at The Masters, putting himself in rare company and setting up a potential three-peat run. Meanwhile, the Seattle Mariners suddenly look alive — bats wake up after the Ichiro statue reveal, and a red-hot stretch has fans cautiously believing again, with top prospect Cade Anderson already flashing serious upside. Mariners No-Table break down a sudden offensive surge from Seattle — but stop short of calling it a full turnaround, pointing instead to plate discipline, weak Astros pitching, and small sample size. There's cautious optimism around Julio Rodríguez heating up and the pitching depth holding, but real questions remain about the lineup, rotation decisions, and whether this is momentum… or just a blip. Mitch and Puck bounce from The Masters coverage to classic Augusta quirks — including strict no-phone rules and a wild story involving a pro getting tossed mid-interview. The conversation veers into golf grudges, media memories, and then fully off the rails with NFL-adjacent tabloid buzz.
