Can one teacher change the course of a student's life? Can curiosity survive in a system that prioritizes conformity? October Sky is more than just a heartwarming story about a boy and his rockets—it's a powerful look at the impact of education, ambition, and the struggle between dreams and expectations. But how accurately does it reflect today's schools? Are students still discouraged from pursuing unconventional paths? Do educators still have the power to ignite change? In this review, we'll break down what October Sky gets right (and where it misses the mark) when it comes to the modern classroom.   Takeaways: Curiosity and inquiry are still not be nurtured in schools Project based learning allows students to be self directed and follow their passions Dreaming doesn't get you where you want to be- action is required Just don't quit! - Advice from Michael Having a network helps when you get stuck   About Michael Duncan: An award-winning superintendent and longtime champion of education transformation, Dr. Mike Duncan is the President and CEO of Battelle for Kids.

In this Convo of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Curt Johansen, a pioneer in conservation communities. He is the Development Director for Triad Communities, President of Council of Infill Builders, and has dedicated years to blending economic growth with environmental preservation. In his own words, he is advancing the art of finding balance between environmental protection, social responsibility, and economic prosperity. Curt and Ted dive right into his work building out Lagoon Valley, the Bay Area's First Conservation Community, where sustainability is not just a goal but a way of life. Curt oversees all aspects of community development, which features over 700,000 square feet of office space, an organic farm, wildlife preserve, 1,015 homes consisting of fourteen neighborhoods, ranging from affordable to age-qualified and executive housing, a vibrant Town Center, numerous parks, with over 70% of the Specific Plan area conserved for open space and recreational use. He and Ted discuss the sustainable development principles that are at the core of the community. He emphasizes the importance of incorporating live, work, and play. He also mentions the conservation work and preservation that has been done and is unique to the community. This includes a golf course that will not only serve as a championship-level course, but will act as a fire and flood buffer for the area.Curt shares that his design model has always been to never replicate, but to embrace change and diversity, to employ compassion for the uniqueness of each location, to honor existing demands of environmental stewardship, and employ lessons learned from others that find better methods for living sustainably on this planet. Ted concludes by commending him for deliberately creating a sustainable culture and community, and addressing all the resource issues that the Lagoon Valley faces.

On this episode of the podcast, Chris Barnard, President of the American Conservation Coalition Action (ACC) joins host Amanda Head to discuss the importance of discussing energy policy along the campaign trail in order to win the support of independent and young voters. After all, survey research conducted by ACC shows that two-thirds of the independent voters today prioritize ‘climate change.'Barnard analyzed Vice President Harris' somewhat polished debate performance while questioning the appeal of her policies. He also heavily critiques the progressive left's environmental strategy, such as shutting down nuclear plants like California and New York have done in recent years, sending emissions skyrocketing within the next month.Barnard and his organization continue their work by advocating for nuclear energy as a reliable and eco-friendly alternative for the United States to produce clean, reliable energy. The duo discuss former President Donald Trump's missed opportunity during the debate to push his message on energy independence, a subject matter he excelled on while in the White House, as well as pushing other clean energy initiatives.If you want to learn more about Chris Barnard or about his organization, ACC Action, you can visit their website here: https://accaction.eco/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The U.S.-China bilateral relationship is a competitive one, from economics to security, diplomacy to geopolitics, technology to the oceans and deep space. It is subject to varying degrees of tension, punctuated by intermittent cooperation and now, a resumption of selective dialogue. Each side views the other with suspicion and the policies of both are in keeping with a sense of alarm. Yet the two countries seem to agree that decoupling the two economies would be a grave mistake and that security, including technological preeminence, is essential to development, growth, leadership, and sovereignty. Ambassador Charlene Barshefsky spoke at the National Committee's Annual Members Program on May 21, 2024, with NCUSCR Director Amy Celico.

It's just hard to imagine how much more arts and culture activity and impact and benefit to local businesses would be happening with greater investment.” -Randy Cohen, Vice President of Research at Americans for the Arts. In this episode of Creative MKE, Elisabeth and Adam speak with Randy Cohen from Americans for the Arts about the Arts and Economic Prosperity 6 Study. Last year, Imagine MKE collaborated with Americans for the Arts to conduct this audience intercept survey in Milwaukee to learn about their induced and direct spending in relationship to arts and culture nonprofit events. Additionally, another survey was shared with hundreds of arts nonprofit organizations—large and small—to learn about their own economic activity, including employment figures. Nearly 100 arts orgs participated, and the results showed Milwaukee to be massively benefiting from jobs, spending, and tax revenue generated through the work of art nonprofits. A sampling of the findings: $334.6 million generated in economic activity 4,550 jobs supported $7.1 million in Milwaukee county and city tax revenue The group discuss how this hallmark arts and economic study has changed over the years to become much more inclusive and to center diverse communities, the dire lack of investment for the arts in Milwaukee and in Wisconsin, and the qualitative and quantitive impact of the arts on individuals and communities.

Summary:In the thought-provoking episode "Shadows of Prosperity: Unveiling the Moral Dilemmas of Military Economic Growth Through Fiction," the "ArTEEtude" podcast, under the stewardship of Detlef Schlich, embarks on an innovative exploration of the intricate relationship between military economic growth and its societal ramifications. This episode distinguishes itself by employing a distinctive narrative technique, utilizing fictional characters to delve into the ethical, emotional, and societal complexities that emerge from the prosperity linked to the arms industry.Through the lives of three meticulously crafted personas—Alexej, a conscientious worker in an arms factory; Marina, the resilient spouse of a military official; and Igor, a former military officer turned peace advocate—the episode weaves a compelling narrative that challenges listeners to confront deep-seated moral questions. These characters serve as conduits, each providing unique insights into the personal and collective consequences of a society entrenched in militarization for economic gains.Alexej's narrative opens a window into the personal conflict and moral ambiguity experienced by individuals contributing to the military-industrial complex, juxtaposing financial stability against ethical considerations. Marina's story further humanizes the discourse, presenting the silent sacrifices and the emotional toll on families behind the military facade. Finally, Igor's transformation and advocacy for peace illuminate the potential for change, advocating for dialogue and reconciliation over conflict."Shadows of Prosperity" stands out for its creative approach to discussing a traditionally empirical subject through the lens of fictional storytelling, thereby fostering a deeper understanding and engagement with the topic. The episode skillfully navigates the intersections of art, digital culture, and societal critique, encouraging a reflective and nuanced conversation among its audience. By presenting a balanced discourse through fictional narratives, the podcast invites listeners to examine their own perspectives on the ethics of prosperity through military means and the broader implications for global peace and human dignity.This episode not only contributes to the academic and cultural discourse on the complexities of military economic growth but also exemplifies the power of art and storytelling in stimulating critical thought and empathy. It is a must-listen for academics, students, and anyone interested in the confluence of art, ethics, and society.Keywords: Military Economic Growth, Ethical Dilemmas, Fictional Storytelling, Societal Impact, Art and Culture, Digital Storytelling, Peace Advocacy, Moral Questions, Economic Prosperity, Military-Industrial Complex.Detlef Schlich is a podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognized for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, as well as his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy.

In this episode, host David Ponraj speaks with Johnathan Holifield, published author and highly practiced economic development authority, about his book: The Future Economy and Inclusive Competitiveness. Johnathan, the Architect of Inclusive Competitiveness (™) is the former executive director of the White House Initiative on HBCU and senior vice president of Bitwise Industries, and who's now looking for his next big challenge where he can contribute to meaningful change.The two share an animated and deeply philosophical discussion about what defines and impedes economic equity and economic mobility in America. Economic mobility hinges on ownership – ownership of assets and ownership of skills. A combination of the two is the key for individuals to achieve economic equity.Johnathan shares that “the constitution protects us against racial discrimination, but doesn't protect us with economic rights.” They discuss how the “race factor” has been a crutch when attempting to understand economic inequities, and that we haven't been creative in addressing true solutions. Economic equity is hard to measure and is a difficult concept. That does not mean that it is not a critical concept worth measuring. A fascinating, deep dive conversation that chips away at the underpinnings of the wealth gap; and the previous and current superficial solutions that aren't working and may, in fact, be widening that gap. Listen in to hear their in-depth insights, challenging questions and revolutionary solutions toward achieving real, measurable economic equity and inclusive competitiveness for all.About Johnathan Holifield: Johnathan is an Innovation Economy leader, civil rights advocate and former NFL athlete. His community roles, which evolved into economic development–especially with regard to tech / innovation–are of special note, including NAACP and other civic entrepreneurial roles, which opened the door to the VP, New Economy Enterprise, Cincinnati USA Chamber of Commerce and Founding Executive. Director, CincyTech. This began his career in economic development.

How does cybersecurity impact the global economy and geopolitical landscape? How is AI changing the game? Yadin sits down with renowned cybersecurity strategist, advisor and geopolitics thought leader Dmitri Alperovitch to discuss this in depth. They dive into the current geopolitical landscape and how CIOs should be thinking about global macro trends as they build their security strategy. Dmitri also shares his thoughts on the ransomware insurance industry and predictions for future actions from China.---------Key Quotes:"So those are the types of things that you want to be thinking about as an organization is: What are you not practicing? What disaster recovery scenarios? It's great that you have backups, but have you ever actually tried to recover everything?...And what other resiliency mechanisms do you have inside your network that may not be cyber- or even technology-related, that would allow you to operate your business?""One of the things that everyone should be thinking about is how geopolitical events, like frankly the Russian invasion of Ukraine and similar events in the future, can affect your business and your operations. One of the things that companies had to figure out once Russia invaded Ukraine is how to pull out of the country in a responsible fashion. How, if they couldn't pull out completely, to isolate the operations  in country from being able to impact operations globally, in case the Russian government decides to do nefarious things on your network or pressure your local employees to do something. And that's something that I think everyone should be paying attention to when it comes to China." Time stamps:(01:00) The relationship between cybersecurity and economic prosperity (02:42) How rapidly is the ransomware issue growing? (04:37) Hidden costs of sacrificing cybersecurity for competitive advantage (07:44) Is the insurance industry influencing how companies think about cybersecurity? (08:41) Is AI changing company behavior regarding cybersecurity?(12:55) How AI impacts the gap between defense and offense (16:51) How has cybersecurity become a tool in geopolitics? (19:57) Global ripple effects of infrastructure being hacked(21:59) How should CIOs think about security within these macro trends? (36:22) What CIOs should be discussing with the board and executive staff--------Links:Dmitri Alperovitch on LinkedInCIO Exchange on TwitterYadin Porter de León on Twitter[Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple PodcastFor more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio

For this episode of Acton Line we're bringing a panel discussion from the Free Market Road Show - Grand Rapids, a recent special event we hosted here at the Acton Institute in conjunction with the Austrian Economics Center. There is no need to describe the many problems and crises of our time. But there is a great need to look at the causes and to refute the simplified and politically opportune explanations. Only if we know exactly what the problems are and how they arose will we be able to find the right solution. New standards have come into force in almost all areas of policy and they are changing our lives, sometimes noticeably, sometimes surreptitiously, but often permanently.This discussion centers on the problem of Unrestrained Government Spending and Economic Prosperity. The conversation features Dr. Barbara Kolm, Vice President of the Austrian Central Bank, and the Director of the Austrian Economics Center, Dr. Daniel Mitchell, a public policy economist based in Washington, DC, and is moderated by Dr. David Hebert, assistant professor of economics and director of the Center for Markets, Ethics, and Entrepreneurship at Aquinas College and an affiliate scholar at the Acton Institute.Subscribe to our podcastsApply Now for Acton University Hosted on Acast.
