In this weeks episode of inverted Orthodoxy, Pastors Kyle, Blake, and Doug answer the following long form question: Negative Impact of Modern Western Culture on Biblical MarriageModern Western cultures often prioritize individualism, personal fulfillment, and egalitarian values, which can conflict with traditional Biblical views of marriage. The emphasis on equality sometimes leads to the reinterpretation or rejection of roles traditionally seen as complementary in a Christian marriage. This cultural shift can create tension and misunderstandings regarding the Biblical model of marriage, where roles are often defined in terms of leadership and submission.2 Influence on Gender Roles in MarriageThe feminist movement has played a significant role in reshaping gender roles within marriage. The Biblical perspective of husbands as "heads" of the household and wives as submissive partners is often challenged, leading to:A) Redefinition of Leadership: Some contemporary Christians interpret leadership as a shared responsibility rather than a unilateral role. This has diluted the traditional concept of the husband's authority and leadership.B) Shift in Responsibilities: With both spouses often working, responsibilities can become more fluid and less traditionally defined, leading to a negotiation of duties that may not align with Biblical teachings.3 Misunderstanding of Scriptural TermsKey terms such as "obey," "submit," "honor," and "lead" carry profound meanings within the Biblical context. However, modern interpretations often lead to misconceptions:Obey and Submit: These terms can be perceived as oppressive. Biblical submission, however, is described as a mutual act of love and respect, where both partners submit to one another (Ephesians 5:21).Honor and Lead: The call to honor and lead may be misconstrued as dictatorial authority rather than a servant leadership style that reflects Christ's love for the church (Ephesians 5:25).4 Power Dynamics in the HomeThe push for gender equality has led to a re-evaluation of power dynamics in marriage:Men Failing to Lead: Some men may struggle with the concept of leadership. This can lead to a sense of inadequacy or confusion regarding their role.Wives Struggling to Submit: Women may find it challenging to allow their husbands to lead, especially if they have developed a strong independent identity or have experienced previous relationships where leadership was abused.5 Challenges in Letting Go and TrustingBoth partners face distinct challenges in navigating these dynamics:Trust Issues: For many women, trusting a husband to lead can be daunting. The fear of relational vulnerability complicates this trust.Fear of Ineffectiveness: Men may fear that stepping into a leadership role could lead to criticism or rejection of their decisions, which can perpetuate a cycle of indecision or avoidance of leadership.Cultural Pressures: Societal narratives often emphasize independence and self-sufficiency, which can create barriers to embracing a Biblical model of marriage that values interdependence and cooperation.6 Education and Church InfluenceThe diminished presence of the church in public schools and its influence on educational curriculums can have far-reaching implications:Curriculum Changes: As church teachings have receded from public education, secular narratives often dominate discussions on gender and sexuality. Curricula that emphasize gender fluidity, personal choice, and diverse family structures can contrast sharply with traditional Biblical teachings.Altered Narratives: This change can distort views of Biblical truths, especially among younger generations who may be less exposed to church teachings. As a result, children may grow up with values that prioritize individualism and personal autonomy over the communal and sacrificial aspects of Christian marriage.The Questions1 What advice would you give to couples currently struggling to establish a more Biblical Marriage? For those who recognize the negative impacts of modern influences on marriage and family dynamics, redirecting leadership roles can be a significant struggle. While the concept of gender equality holds value, it often fails to embrace or support the distinct and complementary roles that individuals play within marriage. 2 I can't help but wonder whether the rising divorce statistics are influenced by our collective rejection of these traditional roles and the subconscious effects of contemporary culture on our marital expectations. What are your thoughts? I believe as children of God, we are equals; however, it is essential to recognize that the genders are not designed to be identical. The differences in our design carry a profound significance that highlights how we complement one another, allowing us to unite as one and support each other in our respective roles. Embracing these unique attributes can enhance our relationships, leading to a more fulfilling and harmonious partnership.Resources for this episode: - The Making of Biblical Womanhood by Beth Allison Barr - The Marriage You Always Wanted by Sheila Wray Gregorie and Dr. Keith Gregorie -Nobody's Mother by Sandra Glahn Do you have a question you've been wanting answered?

Coach Ted talks about how the Lifted Lifepath curriculum evolved and the individual who would seek it.

Many believe, too many historical occurrences, figures, and concepts have been recently boycotted and spurned from contemporary society. Decolonizing the curriculum involves critically examining and transforming traditional academic frameworks to better reflect the experiences and perspectives of marginalized communities, promoting inclusivity and challenging dominant narratives.

Thu, 06 Feb 2025 23:00:00 +0000 https://mydata.podigee.io/256-new-episode 5683e12bb2fd719f3ebadcd48832b6a8 Wie kann Deutschland die digitale Transformation meistern? Was braucht es für eine zeitgemäße Informatikausbildung? Und warum ist Datenkompetenz heute so wichtig wie Lesen und Schreiben? Darum geht es in der neuen Folge von MY DATA IS BETTER THAN YOURS, in der Host Jonas Rashedi mit Daniel Krupka spricht. Als Geschäftsführer der Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V. vertritt er die Interessen der Informatik-Community in Deutschland. Im Gespräch geht es zunächst um die Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V. selbst, die als Fachgesellschaft der Informatik bereits seit den späten 1960er Jahren besteht. Mit ihren knapp 20.000 Mitgliedern setzt sie sich für die Weiterentwicklung der Informatik in Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft ein. Daniel ist dabei in einem zentralen Bereich tätig: der digitalen Bildung. Denn während Data Science-Studiengänge boomen, hinkt die schulische Informatikausbildung hinterher. In sieben Bundesländern kann man noch immer durch die komplette Schulzeit kommen, ohne je Informatikunterricht gehabt zu haben. Die Gesellschaft für Informatik e. V. engagiert sich daher für bessere Rahmenbedingungen - von Empfehlungen für Curricula bis hin zur politischen Arbeit. Denn gerade der Mittelstand braucht dringend qualifizierte Fachkräfte für die digitale Transformation. Natürlich spricht Daniel auch über aktuelle Entwicklungen wie KI. Seine These: Deutschland muss nicht unbedingt mit den großen Tech-Konzernen konkurrieren, sollte aber seine Stärken in der Grundlagenforschung und bei spezialisierten Anwendungen ausspielen. Zum Schluss geht es noch um Daniels persönliches "Data Game" - und wie er seinen Kindern spielerisch Programmierkenntnisse vermittelt. MY DATA IS BETTER THAN YOURS ist ein Projekt von BETTER THAN YOURS.

EXPERT Topic: Why 2024 Matrics Should Think Beyond Traditional Careers Guest: Dr Miné de Klerk, Dean for Curricula and Research -Eduvos

KI-gestütztes Banking in Indien: Wie 45.000 Agenten den Zugang zu Finanzdienstleistungen revolutionieren   Die Revolution des Bankings in Indien zeigt eindrucksvoll, wie Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) und menschliche Intelligenz zusammen soziale Herausforderungen lösen können. Ein indisches Startup hat es geschafft, durch KI-gestützte Lösungen Millionen von Menschen in ländlichen Regionen Zugang zu Finanzdienstleistungen zu ermöglichen – ein Markt, der bisher von klassischen Banken ignoriert wurde. Elena Jäger auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/elena-jaeger/   Die Herausforderung: 70 % der Bevölkerung ohne Zugang zu Finanzdienstleistungen In Indien lebt ein Großteil der Bevölkerung – etwa 70 % – in ländlichen Regionen. Viele dieser Menschen haben keinen Zugang zu Technologie, ein niedriges Bildungsniveau und oft kein festes Einkommen. Banken fokussieren sich traditionell auf die 30 %, die in Städten leben, ein geregeltes Einkommen haben und über klassische Bankprodukte wie Spar- und Investitionskonten verfügen. Für die verbleibenden 70 % sind diese Angebote jedoch irrelevant, da sie oft von Tag zu Tag leben. Hinzu kommt ein tiefes Misstrauen gegenüber Technologie – viele Menschen haben Angst, ihr hart verdientes Geld zu verlieren. Die Lösung des Startups? Ein hybrider Ansatz aus KI und lokaler Präsenz.   Die Lösung: 45.000 KI-unterstützte Banking-Agenten Das Startup hat 45.000 lokale Agenten in den ländlichen Regionen Indiens ausgebildet, die als Schnittstelle zwischen den Banken und den Menschen fungieren. Diese Agenten nutzen KI-gestützte Tools, um ihre Arbeit effizient und sicher zu machen. Die Produkte und Dienstleistungen des Startups orientieren sich an den spezifischen Bedürfnissen dieser Bevölkerungsgruppe: Überleben: Finanzplanung für den täglichen Bedarf. Sparen: Möglichkeiten, kleine Beträge sicher zurückzulegen. Mikroinvestitionen: Einstieg in einfache Investmentlösungen.   Bildung und Vertrauen: Schlüssel zum Erfolg Ein weiterer spannender Aspekt ist das KI-gestützte Ausbildungsprogramm für die Agenten. Diese haben häufig nur einen Highschool-Abschluss, müssen jedoch anspruchsvolle Prüfungen bestehen, um ihre Arbeit aufnehmen zu dürfen. Durch KI-optimierte Curricula wurde die Erfolgsrate der Prüfungen von 30 % auf beeindruckende 60 % gesteigert. Gleichzeitig setzt das Startup auf Technologien wie Gesichtserkennung, um sicherzustellen, dass Transaktionen sicher und transparent ablaufen. Dies stärkt das Vertrauen der Bevölkerung in die neuen Lösungen.   Impact: 100 Millionen Kunden und steigende Jobchancen Heute bedient das Startup bereits 100 Millionen Kunden – das entspricht 7,1 % der indischen Bevölkerung. Zudem schaffen die 45.000 Agenten nicht nur Zugang zu Finanzdienstleistungen, sondern auch dringend benötigte Arbeitsplätze.   Fazit: KI als Katalysator für sozialen Wandel Dieser Fall verdeutlicht, dass Künstliche Intelligenz ihre größte Wirkung entfaltet, wenn sie in Zusammenarbeit mit menschlicher Intelligenz eingesetzt wird. Es geht hier nicht nur um Technologie, sondern darum, soziale Barrieren abzubauen und Menschen eine Perspektive zu bieten. Das Beispiel aus Indien zeigt, wie KI weit über die typischen Anwendungsbereiche hinaus wirken kann – ein Musterbeispiel für sozialen Fortschritt durch Technologie.     Noch mehr von den Koertings ...  Das KI-Café ... jede Woche Mittwoch (>250 Teilnehmer) von 08:30 bis 10:00 Uhr ... online via Zoom .. kostenlos und nicht umsonstJede Woche Mittwoch um 08:30 Uhr öffnet das KI-Café seine Online-Pforten ... wir lösen KI-Anwendungsfälle live auf der Bühne ... moderieren Expertenpanel zu speziellen Themen (bspw.

When creating their own curriculum Rosemary Lane Nursery School identified the need to highly focus on co- and self-regulation. Headteacher Jill Jones and Deputy Head Rebecca Martin discuss the need to constantly refine what they offer their children, planning for what they know, termly reviewing the curriculum and keeping it flexible. As such they are adapting their curriculum constantly. They share their main focus of identifying what they want children to achieve by the end of their time in the setting and how they can be best supported to reach those goals.

Show Notes: Christian Hyatt, Founder of Risk3Sixty, discusses the top three or four things that chief information security officers at sub-enterprise firms are most worried about right now.  He explains that these concerns include the business environment, threat actors, cybersecurity regulation, nation-state actors like Russia and China, and phishing campaigns. He also highlights the unique bridge between cybersecurity and information technology coming to a head with the recent CrowdStrike incident. Advice to Clients on Cybersecurity  Christian suggests that independent consultants should ask clients questions or warning signs to raise their concerns and consider consulting a cybersecurity expert. He suggests that clients are looking for someone who is a good listener and not operating off fear, uncertainty, and doubt. By listening to clients' needs and concerns, consultants can offer advice on implementing best practices on their existing toolset and spreading security awareness. Christian emphasizes that many big enterprise tools, such as Office 365 and Google Suite, have built-in security, covering many bases. Independent consultants should listen for how well implemented their tools are, listen for business problems they have, and offer security assurance. Offering advice on implementing best practices and spreading security awareness can help firms understand how security is impacting their business and make informed decisions about investing in security measures. Cybersecurity Due Diligence In the context of due diligence, Christian states that it is important to consider the company's internal infrastructure, including its cloud-based and on-premises systems. This can help identify potential red flags and ensure the company's sustainability and scalability. For example, if a product company is being acquired, it is crucial to ask about its application security, product security, and scalability. Additionally, understanding the company's mastery of its own product and its ability to scale without the team is essential. Another key factor to consider is the company's internal infrastructure, whether it is cloud-based or on-premises. Integrating with the acquiring firm can impact the cost of the process. Cybersecurity for Independent Consultants and Boutique Firms  Independent consultants and boutique firms with a few employees should also take cybersecurity precautions. Some good tools for small businesses include G Suite or Office 365, which have built-in tools for file share sharing, email security, and internal messaging. These tools help protect against cybersecurity attacks that originate from email. Installing antivirus tools like CrowdStrike and Sentinel can help prevent attacks at the endpoint level. Blocking and tackling security processes, such as using file sharing platforms like OneDrive or Dropbox. It's also important to identify areas where money changes hands and take protective measures. Creating an offline backup of key files once a month can help protect against ransomware attacks. Office 365 or G Suite can also be used to store files in the cloud, with tools like spanning for Office 365 creating backup copies of cloud storage. Exploring the full suite of options available to small business owners can help them get coverage for their biggest risks. Employee Training on Cybersecurity The conversation turns to the importance of raising employees' awareness of phishing dangers. He recommends using tools that periodically send white hat phishing messages to test employees' skills. Christian suggests that small businesses should focus on creating a culture of awareness and vigilance, letting candidates know about potential scams and asking questions if they feel uncomfortable. There are several tools available for security awareness training, including Curricula. Additionally, he suggests using YouTube videos as part of training, as they can be more effective than expected. By implementing these tools, businesses can create a culture of vigilance and prevent employees from clicking on suspicious links. The Origins and Growth of Risk 3 Sixty Christian started his firm as an independent consultant eight years ago, with a trajectory of impressive growth. He initially had one client, a $30,000 one-off engagement, but from there eventually grew the business to 60 clients. Christian shares a few of the tactics behind the growth, including his shift towards cybersecurity.  He focused on a few cybersecurity services that had great demand and packaged them as multi-year deals, and recurring revenue. He also learned that organizations have huge compliance requirements. They built a SaaS platform to help them manage the information. They invested in the SaaS platform and started selling it as a subscription. Today, their services are tech-enabled services, where companies often outsource their entire programs to them due to the need for human labor. Christian made strategic decisions early on, scaling the business around recurring revenue streams, over-delivering, and building a good culture. He centered around those activities that felt risky at the time, saying no to big contracts that didn't fit within his revenue stream. He also explains how a book by Gino Wickman, Traction, and The Entrepreneur Operating System, helped him shift the responsibility for business development off of his shoulders to other members of the firm.  Recruiting Talent for Risk3Sixty Christian hired a West Point graduate to become an ops manager. He believed that hiring great people was a risky move but ultimately helped build a sales function and complement the founder's role. The company also hired a strategic partner with Georgia Tech to hire top students. Despite the early hires, the success of the company can be attributed to the smart people who pushed the founder to think more like a leader and helped him see the future. The company's success can be attributed to the excellent people who helped him make decisions that he wouldn't have made on his own.  The Structure of a Successful Company Christian's company has 60 employees, and a top-down structure consisting of an Executive Leadership Team (ELT) consisting of six members: the CEO, President, Head of People, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Revenue Officer, and the CTO. The CEO focuses on mission and metrics, breaking down the vision into KPIs and measurables, and making sure everyone understands it. He also works on brand equity through social media, podcasts, and speaking events. He also talks about how he approached pay bands and benefits to attract talent and maintain retention. The CEO manages the ELT, ensuring they are motivated and have the same vision. An initiative Review Board was created to address pent up projects or initiatives that were not previously budgeted. This allowed people to request new projects or initiatives outside of budget season, providing a pressure relief valve for strategic initiatives. A Successful Marketing Philosophy Christian's marketing philosophy focuses on teaching good concepts and adding value to people, rather than being an influencer. He uses content such as videos and white papers to add value and engage people, leading to more leads and engagement. He initially used LinkedIn outbound to find open job opportunities and reach out to hiring managers, but found that more people would ignore him than respond.

How can educators create inclusive environments for LGBTQ+ youth? To explore this question, Brett speaks to a veteran middle school social studies teacher in Massachusetts, Marc Lewis, who has been enacting and experimenting with strategies and curricula to help all of his students feel welcome in his classroom – and to help them understand the complexity and truth of our world and its history. In our conversation, Marc describes how he builds a trusting classroom community, how he physically designs his classroom, how he integrates LGBTQ+ history into his curriculum, how he shares his own identity as an openly gay man, and how he has responded to challenges related to these practices. Marc also describes a variety of resources (links below) that listeners can check out if they want to learn more about this type of work.Marc Lewis holds a master's degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has taught social studies at R.J.

In this episode of AI Goes to College Craig dives deep into the world of AI in education, exploring new tools and models that could revolutionize the way we approach learning and teaching. Join Craig as he shares insights from testing various AI models and introduces a groundbreaking tool called The Curricula. In this episode, Craig talks about: A terrible new anti-AI detection "tool" Does AI hurt critical thinking and academic performance? How not to talk about AI in education Claude 3 takes the lead Using Google Docs with Gemini Claude 3 Haiku - Best combination of speed and performance? The Curricula - A glimpse of what AI can be Anti-AI detection tool There's a terrible new tool that supposedly helps students get around AI detection systems (which don't work well, by the way). Faculty, you have nothing to worry about here. The tool is a joke.  Does AI hurt critical thinking and academic performance? A recent article seems to provide evidence that AI is harmful to critical thinking and academic performance. But, as is often the case, online commenters get it wrong. The paper doesn't show this at all. How not to talk about AI in education An author affiliated with the London School of Economics wrote an interesting article about how NOT to talk about AI in education. Craig comments on what the article got wrong (in his view). Using Google Docs with Gemini There are some interesting integrations between some Google tools, including Docs and Gemini. It works ... OK, but it's a good start. Claude 3 Haiku If you haven't checked Claude 3 Haiku, you should. It may offer the best performance to speed combination in the market.  The Curricula The Curricula is an amazing new tool that creates comprehensive learning guides for virtually any topic.

The Virginia General Assembly introduced several proposals to update public school curricula, including education around food allergies, mental health, hazing and overdose prevention.  Some legislative proposals add a specific focus to the current curriculum, while others are completely new.  The bills to add new instruction had good intentions, but many did not explain what they were going to replace, according to Chad Stewart, policy analyst for the Virginia Education Association. “When you add one thing in, you can either cover everything in less depth, or something needs to come out,” Stewart said.  There is not a set timeline for when...Article LinkSupport the show

The Francis Howell School District made national headlines when it canceled its Black History and Black Literature courses. After protests from teachers and students, the board agreed to reinstate it, only it was, in the board's words, a politically neutral curriculum. A new version will be before the board later this month.

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Leah Murray The state Legislature is still in session and a new bill is working its way through the system, HB269 Public School History Curricula Amendments, which would require schools to display a poster detailing the Ten Commandments. This week that bill underwent some changes in committee, and it now says that the Ten Commandments can be taught in public schools—not that they have to be. Is this bill in violation of the Lemon Test?

Das Jahr 2023 markierte einen Kulminationspunkt in der erinnerungskulturellen Debatte um die gegenwärtige Einordnung und Bewertung der DDR-Geschichte. Es erschienen zahlreiche Publikationen mit großer gesellschaftlicher Resonanz und kontroversen Reaktionen, die das Spannungsfeld von Alltag und Diktatur einerseits sowie der Transformationszeit in ihren Auswirkungen bis heute andererseits neu vermessen wollten. Diese historischen Aushandlungsprozesse machen auch vor den Schulen nicht Halt: Zwar ist die Beschäftigung mit der deutsch-deutschen Nachkriegsgeschichte Bestandteil aller Curricula der 16 Bundesländer, die thematischen Schwerpunktsetzungen fallen allerdings sehr unterschiedlich aus. Die Folgen der Deutschen Einheit, Umbruchszeit sowie erinnerungskulturelle Perspektiven kommen dabei oft zu kurz. Abhängig vom Standort, Alter und der Sozialisation der Lehrkraft sowie dem Hintergrund der Schülerinnen und Schüler entstehen mitunter Widersprüche zwischen dem familiären Gedächtnis und den schulischen Lernzielen, schulspezifischen Curricula oder den Rahmenlehrplanvorgaben. Diese Widersprüche können und sollen nicht aufgelöst, aber sollten für einen multiperspektivischen Blick auf die DDR-Geschichte fruchtbar gemacht werden. Wie wollen wir die deutsch-deutsche Teilungs- und Einheitsgeschichte künftig unterrichten? Wie können neue Fragen und Themenfelder in einen lebendigen erinnerungskulturellen Diskurs aufgenommen werden, ohne in eine Weichzeichnung der kommunistischen Diktaturen zu verfallen? Bilden Alltag und Diktatur zwei Pole oder sind diese nicht vielmehr integriert zu betrachten? Die Veranstaltung in der Reihe „Wir müssen reden!“ möchte kontroverse erinnerungskulturelle Fragen auf den Tisch bringen und mit Lehrkräften unterschiedlicher Generationen, Fachdidaktikerinnen und Historikern sowie dem Publikum ins Gespräch kommen. Eine Kooperationsveranstaltung des Landesverbandes der Geschichtslehrer Berlin e. V. mit der Bundesstiftung zur Aufarbeitung der SED-Diktatur.

Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards. First, Dom welcomes in Brian Kilmeade, author of Teddy and Booker T: How Tow American Icons Blazed a Path for Racial Equality, back onto the Dom Giordano Program to hear a historical contextualization of the emerging third party candidate, Robert Kennedy Jr, discussing the time that Teddy Roosevelt ran as a third party candidate, pointing out the differences from his time to now. Kilmeade and Giordano uses Roosevelts often unheard story as an example of things that aren't, but should be taught in public schools. Along with the conversation about third party candidates, Giordano asks Kilmeade his thoughts on who Trump may choose as his vice presidential candidate. Also, Giordano and Kilmeade delve into Kilmeade's work history, with Kilmeade telling in depth his time spent with NFL hall-of-famer Jim Brown, an incredibly inspirational stories. Then, Dom welcomes in Terry Strada, National Chair of 9/11 Families United, onto the podcast after a recent poll revealed that one in five Gen Zs have a positive view of Osama Bin Laden, noting that what he did was a net positive for the World. Strada and Giordano share a deep discussion about the newest generation and what's led to sympathy for terrorists, with Strada stressing the importance of education about the day so accuracies and factual information makes it to our children. Finally, Dom welcomes in David Zweig back onto the podcast on the one-year anniversary of his release of the Twitter Files, which exposed the censorship that persisted on Twitter throughout the Coronavirus pandemic. In his reporting a year ago, Zweig exposed that Twitter was censoring information that was true but inconvenient to US governmental policy, also discrediting doctors and other experts who disagreed and suppressing ordinary users, including some sharing the CDC's own data. Zweig offers his thoughts on what has unfolding since then concerning Twitter, now named X after an Elon Musk takeover, which largely happened because of this information coming to light.

In Episode 3 of "The Knowledge Matters Podcast: Reading Comprehension Revisited" you'll hear from three teachers who've experienced the before and after of the shift to using a knowledge-building curriculum in their classrooms.Abby Boruff, Deloris Fowler, and Kyair Butts are three classroom teachers who are, in some ways, very different. They teach different ages, and different subjects, in different parts of the country, but in other ways they have a lot in common. All three were skeptical when their schools switched to new knowledge-building literacy curricula. Curricula like these give all children in the classroom access to the same complex, grade-level texts, building their knowledge and vocabulary through read-alouds and discussion, instead of limiting them to books they can decode themselves.At first Abby, Deloris, and Kyair worried that the curriculum would be too challenging, too restrictive of their autonomy, or that the topics wouldn't interest their students. And, the biggest challenge of all, as Deloris explains, was not understanding “the why” of the changes they were making. But once they saw the dramatic benefits for their students, that “why” became clear and all three came to embrace a new approach to teaching literacy.For more information about the information in this episode, visit the episode webpage on the Knowledge Matters Podcast website.This podcast is produced by the Knowledge Matters Campaign.
