On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Catherine Priggs and Hugh Richards, co-authors of Secondary History in Action, to dig into what great history curriculum and leadership look like in practice. They discuss starting with a clear departmental vision, making brave choices about what to include (and exclude), and balancing school context with disciplinary integrity. Along the way they unpack ideas like core and hinterland knowledge, Richard Kennett's museum curation analogy, and why non-specialist teaching makes a rich hinterland even more vital. Catherine shares insights from international curriculum work, while Hugh reflects on training hundreds of subject leaders and the realities of mandated trust curricula. The conversation also tackles assessment, examining extended writing in history as well as the kinds of tasks to avoid - before showcasing how scholarship-anchored enquiries can make the discipline sing. The book's design contains QR-linked routes into Historical Association resources, offering a practical portal for teachers who want exemplification, not just principles. It's an energising, example-rich tour of how to build ambitious, coherent history curricula that pupils remember and love.Catherine Priggs is an education consultant who specialises in history education and whole-school leadership.

Episode 81: How AI Changes Everything and NothingWith Peter NilssonAvailable November 11, 2025Right now, it may feel as though AI has changed everything about education. It has, says Peter Nilsson – but it has also changed nothing. That's the paradox at the core of his forthcoming co-authored book, Irreplaceable: How AI Changes Everything and Nothing about Teaching and Learning. He sits down with host Morva McDonald to share what has actually changed, what hasn't, and how his work using technology to bolster innovation in education has led him to this place.Guest: Peter NilssonResources, Transcript, and Expanded Show NotesIn This Episode:“Unlike medicine and unlike law, education is diverse in the way that it is applied in different classrooms. There isn't only one way to teach the Great Gatsby. There isn't only one way to teach Beloved. In fact, every classroom should be different in the way that it engages it because every classroom has different students. So while knowledge on Wikipedia compiles everybody's contributions to the page on physics compiled to one page, curriculum does the opposite. Curriculum doesn't compile. It disaggregates. It diversifies.” (5:22)“It's impossible to expect every teacher, every school, even to be able to develop the wisest, most effective responses to every change. That's just not how innovation happens. What happens is people all across networks figure out small little things. And the more those small little things can share across the network, the more any individual node on the network can have the most comprehensive, high quality, effective response to that thing.” (16:52)“Students now can do more, so much more than they ever could do before. Every student having something like this vision of an AI tutor is a game changer for so many reasons. But nonetheless, students will still need time. They will still need help. They will still need practice. They will still struggle to ask the right question. They will still come in confused about something. They will still need teachers to help them build confidence. Everything is changing in terms of how we do this on a human, individual level where we're interacting with a machine that is more and more like a human, but nothing is changing in that the messiness of our own human learning remains.” (22:31)Related Episodes: 71, 69, 68, 49, 45, 31 Hosted on Acast.

SUMMARY In this engaging conversation, Jeremy Lesniak is joined by Adam Kifer to explore his evolution of martial arts training, emphasizing the importance of personal growth, curriculum design, and setting high standards in martial arts schools. They discuss cultural shifts within the martial arts community, the significance of honest feedback, and the necessity of adapting to modern challenges. Adam shares his journey in martial arts, highlighting the impact of resistance and the value of cross-training. The discussion culminates in a call to action for martial arts school owners to empower themselves and their students, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and excellence.   TAKEAWAYS Martial arts can provide life preparation and mental toughness. Cultural shifts in martial arts schools can enhance student engagement. Curriculum design should focus on quality over quantity. Personal growth is essential for effective leadership in martial arts. Resistance in training is a sign of growth and progress. Setting high standards can improve student performance and retention. Honest feedback is crucial for personal and professional development. Cross-training in different martial arts can enhance overall skill. Martial arts schools should adapt to modern challenges and student needs. The journey of martial arts is about continuous learning and improvement.

Today, my conversation is with my dear friend Yancy Wideman Richmond and honestly, it feels so necessary. I think it's because she's shining a light on something that's often overlooked if you're not experiencing it firsthand: the kids growing up in the fishbowl of ministry.Yancy is a worship leader who's been creating music for kids and families for years. But lately, God has put something else on her heart that she couldn't shake… pastor's kids. The ones who sacrifice in ways no one asks them to. The ones who notice when their parent is different on stage than at home. The ones who get overlooked for discipleship because everyone assumes they're fine.So she's launched Stained Glass Kids: a podcast for and about ministry kids. It's so helpful and needed and it's a case study handed to church leaders on a silver platter about how to better care for their staff families.In our conversation, Yancy shares some of the wisdom she's already gleaned: Celebrate staff kids for the sacrifice they make. Remember that your staff members are someone's spouse, someone's parent. First-borns often carry pressure in hard seasons even when parents never asked them to. And kids absolutely notice when they're treated differently because of their last name.This episode is a big bear hug for anyone who grew up in ministry. It's also a necessary conversation for anyone in church leadership who wants to do better.Yancy on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yancynotnancy/Stained Glass Kids on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stainedglasskids/The Stained Glass Kids Podcast: http://stainedglasskids.com Yancy's book “Sweet Sound: The Power of Discipling Kids in Worship": yancyministries.com/sweetsound Curriculum to teach the heart of worship: yancyministries.com/heartbeat Worship for Preteen/elementary ages: kidminworship.com Worship for young children: yancyministries.com/readysetgo Live events, family concerts, leading worship: yancyministries.com/events 

Is there any redeeming value in reading fantasy literature or literature from the ancient world that is not distinctively Christian? What does Athens have to do with Jerusalem? What does truth have to do with fiction? Our guest again this week, an advocate for classical Christian education, Dr. Louis Markos, believes that reading fantasy or any of the classical works from pagan antiquity is an essential component to a classical Christian education; one that enables students to understand and appreciate the bigger historical and cultural contexts picture related to the origins of Christianity, as well as equips them to better grasp who they are as human beings created in the image of God. We continue to discuss his new book Passing the Torch - An Apology for the Christian Faith. Dr. Louis Markos is an authority on C. S. Lewis, apologetics, and ancient Greece and Rome. He lectures widely for classical Christian and classical charter schools and conferences. Markos is the author of twenty-six books, and is the Robert H. Ray Chair of Humanities at Houston Christian University in Houston, Texas.

Travis and P.J. are joined by the occasionally grumpy attorney Tyler Johnson, who was in a very chipper mood this day; to discuss his life, his desires, and his failed attempt at becoming a baseball superstar. Thankfully lawyering was his fall back, and he's been failing upwards ever since. Now he gets the honor of adding 'Podcast Guest' to his Curriculum vitae… or "extensive resume" for people too stupid to habla español. Great Law. Less Legal. Law Done Lite!

This week on the podcast we examine the Office for Students' (OfS) renewed scrutiny of degree classification algorithms and what it means for confidence in standards. We explore the balance between institutional autonomy, transparency for students and employers, and the evidence regulators will expect.Plus we discuss the government's response to the Francis review of curriculum and assessment in England, and the Welsh government's plan to lift the undergraduate fee cap in 2026–27 to align with England with a 2 per cent uplift to student support.With Alex Stanley, Vice President for Higher Education of the National Union of Students, Michelle Morgan, Dean of Students at the University of East London, David Kernohan, Deputy Editor at Wonkhe and presented by Mark Leach, Editor-in-Chief at Wonkhe.Algorithms aren't the problem. It's the classification system they supportThe Office for Students steps on to shaky ground in an attempt to regulate academic standardsUniversities in England can't ignore the curriculum (and students) that are comingDiamond's a distant memory as Wales plays inflation games with fees and maintenanceWhat we still need to talk about when it comes to the LLE

The other day I found myself walking through a parking garage stairwell in Iowa City, and I realized they were using the same scent design as the local mall in Bratislava where we used to live. Half-shocked, half-amused, I climbed the cement stairs as I remembered riding the escalator through the same subtle scent cloud two years ago. The memory was visceral. Though we don't always think about it, our sensory experiences have a strong impact on how we feel and how we work. I do my best work in a situation where I feel comfortable. In fact, I generally prefer not to work at home because step one, for me, to working at home is often to clean the entire house, put music on, light a candle, pick flowers, make tea, etc. and so I spent an hour prepping to work before I do anything. I bet you've already put considerable time and effort into making your classroom a space where you feel comfortable and where students feel welcome. Today isn't about changing any of that; it's just about finding small places where you might be able to tune your sensory dashboard in class to make it work even better for you and your kiddos. By thinking specifically about the five senses - just like we have students do in their writing - you can find easy wins to make the workspace more welcoming, energizing, and comfortable for everyone inside.

Jane Moore exposes Sicknote Britain's dangerous spiral—millions signed off, productivity in freefall. She grills Sir Iain Duncan Smith on Labour's plan to “decolonise” the curriculum and cram climate ideology into every lesson: is this education or indoctrination? Then, is Tim Davie finished at the BBC? Former BBC exec Danny Cohen delivers a no-holds-barred verdict on the DG's future. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

When she discovered the idea of a personal curriculum, today's guest couldn't wait to apply this concept to her reading life. Amy St. Amand, a primary care clinical pharmacist from Rhode Island, wants to know a little bit about a whole lot of things. She's working to build a personal learning plan that encompasses a variety of her assorted interests, and she's here today for Anne's help in developing and refining her selected topics. Anne couldn't wait to hear more about Amy's approach, why this idea resonated with her so much, and her progress so far. After they explore Amy's project, Anne recommends a whole lot of mostly nonfiction books that will help Amy delve deeper into her chosen topics. See the list of titles mentioned today at our show notes page, which you'll find at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/501. If you're a member of our Modern Mrs. Darcy Book Club, today's topic may sound familiar in a really fun way. We touched on the idea of a personal curriculum in our recent book club class, A Close Look at Great Books. Among other topics, this class explored our community manager Ginger Horton's ongoing grad school experience focused on a Great Books curriculum, and how you can apply some of those ideas to your own reading life.

In this special episode of The Autism Little Learners Podcast, I'm celebrating 10 years of Sesame Workshop's Autism Initiative and the creation of the beloved character, Julia! I had the absolute joy of sitting down with Kama Einhorn and Dr. Abigail Bucuvalas from Sesame Workshop to talk about the incredible impact of authentic representation, inclusion, and collaboration with the autism community. We dive into how Julia was created to truly reflect the experiences of autistic children and families, the thoughtful research that goes into every Sesame Workshop project, and the global reach of their work. You'll also hear about puppeteer Stacey Gordon—whose personal connection to autism brings such authenticity to Julia's voice—and some exciting new projects on the horizon that continue to celebrate acceptance, understanding, and belonging for all children. Key Takeaways: Sesame Workshop's Autism Initiative has been making an impact for a decade. Julia was created to reflect the experiences of autistic children and promote understanding. Collaboration with autistic individuals, families, and experts is central to Sesame Workshop's process. Representation in media helps normalize conversations about autism and inclusion. Puppeteer Stacey Gordon brings personal insight and authenticity to Julia's character. Every piece of content is research-based and tested before release. The team continually evolves to ensure portrayals of autism are authentic and neurodiversity-affirming. Julia's story continues to grow — showing her friendships, family life, and even her communication with an AAC device. Free, bilingual resources are available for families at SesameWorkshop.org/Autism. The Autism Initiative has had a global impact, expanding to shows like Sisimpur in Bangladesh. Guest Bios: Before we jump in, I'd love to tell you a bit more about today's guests, Kama and Abby.

What happens when you run an architecture studio inside a refugee settlement — and let refugees lead it?Scott Key (founder/CEO of Every Shelter) is back to break down how a 10-week “design school” in Nakivale turned buzzwords like “co-creation” into actual, working solutions — cow-dung bricks that survive soaking, shelter-wide mosquito netting, and quality water that families can afford.Why it matters:Refugees are displaced for 20+ years — which means they need permanent, local, extremely affordable building solutions. This episode shows how design unlocks what's already on the ground: clay, ag waste, community trust, and good design.LinksDonate to Support Every Shelter's WorkEvery ShelterOur Last Episode with ScottYoutube*:* https://youtu.be/60d198yrKcY?feature=sharedSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3iVzLi6aF5SV1K7WaVayT4?si=P2-DFU3_QNKP9c_XFxUEFQApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/designing-dignity-how-scott-key-and-every-shelter-are/id1725756164?i=1000702692254Chapters00:00 Running an Architecture Studio in a Refugee Camp02:53 Pitching the Idea to Students and Stakeholders02:53 Introduction to the Program and Partnerships05:13 Setting the Stage: The First Day of Design School07:54 Curriculum and Transformation: Learning by Doing10:20 Innovative Projects: Cow Poop and Mud Bricks12:41 Community Engagement: Addressing Local Needs15:30 Water Quality Solutions: BioSand Filters18:18 Empowerment through Entrepreneurship: Offer Letters and Business Models20:39 Feedback and Iteration: Learning from the Community22:51 The Role of Donors and Future Directions25:08 Looking Ahead: Optimism for Human Connection

Welcome to the O2X limited series Optimizing Parenthood - A Guide to Leading the Next Generation.Over this 5 episode limited series we will explore the science, strategies, and practical wisdom behind raising healthy, confident, and resilient young adults. Hosted by O2X Vice President of Government Brendan Stickles, this podcast brings together leading experts in sleep science, nutrition, fitness, psychology, and personal development to help parents navigate the complexities of modern parenting.Episode #1 features Dr. Katy Turner who discusses building confidence and resilience within young adults. Dr. Katy Tran Turner is the Manager of Curriculum and Learning Design at O2X, where she is responsible for compiling content, researching relevant background information, and helping create world-class training materials for a variety of clients and events. Additionally, Katy serves as an O2X Mental Performance Specialist, specializing in developing mental skills that optimize performance in high-pressure, fast-paced, and dynamic environments. Her expertise focuses on enhancing decision-making, confidence, self-regulation, and present-moment focus during high-stress performance moments. Dr. Turner served as the mental performance coach for the Buffalo Sabres for five seasons and spent two seasons with the Buffalo Bills, where she contributed to multidisciplinary teams providing holistic support. Before her time with professional athletes in Western New York, Katy worked with soldiers at Fort Bragg, NC, providing mental performance training for tactical athletes.

Mailbag questions or topic suggestions? Text us!What if the fastest route to a healthier youth ministry isn't writing more, but shepherding more? We sit down with Anne Wilson, Next Gen Pastor at Traders Point Christian Church, to learn the value of buying curriculum, then spending your reclaimed hours pastoring students and training volunteers. Anne shares a practical, month-ahead workflow for taking a solid, gospel-centered series from download to stage—assigning a rotating editor, contextualizing scripts, upgrading small group questions, and leaving room for the Holy Spirit to lead. The payoff is tangible: more time in schools and FCA, stronger leader prep, and holy moments like spontaneous baptisms when hearts are ready.We also pull back the curtain on CIY MOVE's upcoming Kingdom Workers theme. Think Ephesians with a bright, surreal visual world and a reimagined response element that nods to the past without living in it. The film project with a new mission partner threads beautifully through the theme, showing students how vocation and calling intersect in ordinary life. Ephesians 2:10 anchors the message: you are God's handiwork, sent to make everyday spaces sacred—classrooms, shops, studios, and sidelines.If you've wrestled with the stigma of “selling out” by purchasing curriculum, Anne offers a reframing that's both freeing and challenging. Students aren't grading authorship—they're aching for truth and presence. Treat curriculum like worship music: sometimes you write for your house; often you lead with faithful songs others composed. The key is stewardship and context, not copy-paste shortcuts. Leave with a clear process you can adopt tomorrow, a vision for sacred work in everyday places, and a renewed conviction that your best creativity might be spent in conversation, not in a document.

In this episode of The Heiress Podcast, Skye Edmonds shares a powerful reminder that before promotion comes preparation. Using David's story as a prophetic mirror, she reveals what it means to be trained in the field—the hidden seasons where God builds capacity, authority, and character before the crown. Skye unpacks how true Kingdom wealth is born from covenant, not performance, and why both striving for riches and glorifying lack miss the heart of stewardship. If you've ever felt overlooked, delayed, or forgotten in your calling, this conversation will remind you that you're not behind—you're being prepared to reign.------------------CONNECT WITH MEDownload the free Prayer for the Heiress and step into your authority as a daughter, a steward, and a Kingdom builder: https://generous-bird-13350.myflodesk.com/heiressprayerDM me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theheiresspodcast

This episode introduces a practical, curriculum-centred approach to student leadership with Maureen Chapman and James Simons of Cor Creative Partners. They explain why leadership should be taught like any other skill (not left to “natural leaders”), share the memorable chocolate-milk classroom story that reveals how students hide emotions, and show how simple classroom routines and roles make leadership visible and teachable.You'll get clear, immediate methods to use in class: the Leader Profile (motivate, persevere, communicate, collaborate) and four group roles (motivator, project manager, facilitator, advocate); quick reflection + micro-goal routines you can scaffold; and a low-risk pilot strategy (small team doing a lot vs whole-school doing a little). Shane, Maureen and James also name a psychological finding about why reflection is hard for students (many prefer doing something to “just thinking”), and they give pragmatic fixes you can trial tomorrow.

#229: This isn't your basic gratitude list. In this new format of our monthly reset series—now reimagined as The Monthly Curriculum—we're going way deeper than "three things you're grateful for." Think: rewiring your brain, regulating your nervous system, and attracting the life you want through powerful, embodied gratitude. This episode turns November into a masterclass in living with intention. Josie walks you through your full monthly syllabus: from the reflection questions that matter, to new hot girl habits rooted in presence and awe, to mindset shifts, journaling prompts, and real tools for emotional expansion. You'll learn how to see your life through the eyes of your younger self, how to be grateful for the hard things, and how to actually feel the fullness of your life instead of just checking boxes. Plus: extra credit challenges, book recs, movie assignments, and a major glow-up energy forecast.For Detailed Show Notes visit theeverygirlpodcast.com Hosted on Acast.

What if a single test score isn't telling you what matters most about your readers? We sit down with Dr. Kristen Braatz, AVP of Curriculum and Instruction at Curriculum Associates, to unpack how educators can capture a fuller, more actionable picture of literacy growth.Kristen traces the realities behind stagnant literacy scores and the rising demands of reading in a digital world. We dig into why high-quality curriculum must go beyond comprehension checks to challenge students to analyze, argue, and create. You'll hear how meaningful tasks, like structured discussions, frequent writing, and opportunities to teach ideas back, make thinking visible and reveal true progress. Along with that, we dive into the power of aligning assessment with instruction -- teachers gain time, students get targeted support, and literacy growth shows up both on the page and in real-life tasks.If you're ready to move beyond data for data's sake and toward evidence that drives meaningful reading and writing, this conversation will give you clear steps to start now. Read Kristen's blog: CurriculumAssociates.com/blog/measuring-literacyFollow us on Twitter: @CurriculumAssocFollow us on Instagram: @MyiReadyHave feedback, questions, or want to be a guest?

"Disgusted, absolutely ridiculous and past being disappointed". Those are just some of the reaction from Principals and teachers to the government's proposed primary school curriculum. The overnight publication of draft curriculums for six learning areas and recent changes to the already-published maths and English curriculums have prompted a virtual revolt by the Principals Federation. It says it does not trust the Education Ministry or Education Minister, Erica Stanford. Education correspondent John Gerritsen spoke to Lisa Owen.

Agriculture is notoriously susceptible to the whims of the elements. Farmers and ranchers can see their entire livelihoods turn on one bad hailstorm or ill-timed heat wave, which are more frequent as our planet continues to warm. Today, we'll head to Colorado to hear about an apprenticeship program that's embedding climate literacy into its teachings. But first: the value of the dollar, this morning's web outages, and pain for small- and mid-sized businesses
