John Milton—the sixteenth-century blind Puritan poetic genius, reviled by some, beloved by most, second in greatness only to Shakespeare—pens an epic poem: Paradise Lost. In astonishing beauty and depth, he retells the tragic fall of man in the Garden of Eden. But did he make Satan the poem's hero? Dr. Grant Horner, Professor of English, Renaissance, and Reformation at the Masters University, will help us find out, in this friendly guide to Classical Christian Education.

Full Hour | In today's second hour, Dom welcomes Guy Ciarrocchi, author for Broad and Liberty and Real Clear Politics, back onto the Dom Giordano Program to hear his thoughts on how both Trump's trial and Biden's rhetoric are playing in the suburbs, which Guy is deeply plugged into. Guy offers his angle on Biden's trip to Philadelphia, noting the hypocrisy of Biden coming to a school filled with predominantly impoverished students to preach about education while actively fighting against school choice. Then, Ciarrocchi tells how the trial is playing in the suburbs, explaining why many are seeing through the spin offered by Democrats, strengthening support for Trump. Also, Guy offers his thoughts on multiple potential Vice Presidential contenders, and tells whether Dave McCormick can win against Bob Casey Jr in Pennsylvania's Senate race. Then, Dom continues the hour by discussing Biden's trip to Pennsylvania and the Senate race in Pennsylvania between McCormick and incumbent Democrat Bob Casey Jr. Then, Dom tells about some comments made by the President of McDonalds relating to inflation, speaking out against Biden's continued reluctance to accept responsibility and tendency to blame corporations for ‘shrinkflation.' Also, in Dan Time with Dom, Dan offers up some controversy spurned by Taylor Swift, a shocking moment from a Zoom court room, and some information as to why certain assassins are referred to as three-word names.

Matt Esterman is Director of Innovation & Partnerships, and history teacher, at Our Lady of Mercy College Parramatta. An educational leader who's making things happen with AI in education in Australia, Matt created and ran the AI in Edcuation conference in Sydney in November 2023, where this interview with Dan and Ray was recorded. Part of Matt's role is to help his school on the journey to adopting and using generative AI. As an example, he spent time understanding the UNESCO AI Framework for education, and relating that to his own school. One of the interesting perspectives from Matt is the response to students using ChatGPT to write assignments and assessments - and the advice for teachers within his school on how to handle this well with them (which didn't involve changing their assessment policy!) "And so we didn't have to change our assessment policy. We didn't have to change our ICT acceptable use policy. We just apply the rules that should work no matter what. And just for the record, like I said, 99 percent of the students did the right thing anyway." This interview is full of common sense advice, and it's reassuring the hear the perspective of a leader, and school, that might be ahead on the journey. Follow Matt on Twitter and LinkedIn

On this episode of CherryPop, Meg welcomes educator, advocate, and author Blair Imani. “If you're a lonely kid who has to eat lunch at the library, like I did, it just feels like that's gonna be your life forever. So, if someone can tell you a real-life story of somebody who was in that situation and overcame it, it can help you be like, ‘Okay, right now, I'm in my cocoon phase and, one day, I'm gonna bloom and become this beautiful butterfly'.” -Blair Imani The “Smarter in Seconds” creator shares the value of boundaries, personal space, and implanting strategic vulnerability. She also talks about her love for biographies, the fine line between disruption and curiosity, and the power of collaborating and honoring people's time. “I think one of the biggest things that capitalism and white supremacy culture tell us is that we can't work with our friends. We can't work with our family. And for a lot of folks who are marginalized [...] we don't have the option of not doing that. We don't have all the same opportunities; we have to make things work. And so it's all about having boundaries, all about building trust.” - Blair Imani Learn more about Blair Imani by visiting her website, joining her on social media @blairimani, and reading her books: Making Our Way Home (2020), Modern HERstory (2018) CherryPicks is the best place to see what women think about movies, tv, and more.

The aim of this podcast is to make you familiar with the basics of planning and developing a learning design to successfully implement a blended learning environment. As with face-to-face courses, online courses also require targeted planning of the learning process and the learning environment, not to mention the fact that teachers have already developed their own teaching style tailored to the needs of the learners. This introduction takes into account the fact that many teachers or learning designers have to create an online course for the first time and without appropriate models and working materials that can be easily accessed.You will learn not only what it is, but also how you could implement it in your learning design.

I once had a veteran colleague lament about the state of teaching. He meditated, WIth all the that they're making us do, if I was in college today, there's no way I'd major in Education. Apparently, he's not alone in this sentiment. If one searches "Decline in Education Majors", one will find plenty of evidence that many undergrads feel exactly as my colleague expressed. Here's a link to 2019 Forbes article which relies heavily on data from the National Center for Education Statistics. Over the past decade, Education has suffered the largest exodus compared with other majors–a decline of 19%. While I'm sad that declining numbers of young Americans consider teaching a wonderful career path, this phenomenon does create wonderful opportunities for potential teachers. In the future, jobs may be easier to secure. Teacher pay may have to increase because of supply. This episode will feature one of these aspiring teachers–Joce McBurney-Buell.Last summer, I traveled to Muskingum University to meet with the my dear friend the outgoing Department Chair Rae White. In the midst of our day, she invited me to lunch in the gymnasium which was hosting freshmen students who were also being oriented to campus. Rae and I plopped down at a table full of young people to break bread. Seated beside me was a young woman who seemed to know a lot more about Muskingum than an incoming freshman. As you probably guessed, Joce was my table neighbor and was about to embark on her junior year. She was on campus that day to help ease freshmen with their significant transition from home and high school. As we interacted, I was thrilled to learn that Joce is an Education major. As I observed her and interacted with her, it became quickly apparent that this young women had it going on. I just knew–and it's been confirmed by future interactions, that she was destined to present to my Intro to Education students, which she did last week, and appear on my podcast, which is this episode.We'll discuss her goals and motivations, but what really excites me is what Joce represents. Students such as her point to a bright future in American education. The young people that I interact with in the Education major are excited, driven, and passionate about the calling. Don't get too discouraged about the Forbes article. There are some magnificent young teachers on the horizon.

In your daily life, would you voluntarily sit down to write an analytical essay on The Odyssey? Or on Catcher in the Rye? Probably not. Would you like to read and grade more than one hundred identical essays about these novels instead? Probably not. So, why do we ask our students to this year after year?Today on the Heinemann Podcast, authors Allison Marchetti & Rebekah O’Dell explore alternatives to the dreaded literary analysis essays in their new book, Beyond Literary Analysis. Allison and Rebekah explore the meaning of analysis from an entirely new perspective, in hopes of challenging traditional notions of what students should be analyzing and how they should write about. They want student writing to be where passion and analysis meet by redefining the meaning of the word “text.”We began our conversation discussing how this new understanding of analysis came to be.

My guest entrepreneur looking to build a life of freedom is Mr Stephen Rykwalder. He is a man who has taken a huge amount of action and I suppose risk in the last five months, and that is why I just had to have him on todays show. Unlike many of the guests that appear and chat about their success and failures, he is at the beginning of his journey to the top. He is taking a leap of faith and setting out on his path to freedom and I am convinced that he has what is needed to achieve this aim. To say it a different way then if heart and commitment are anything to go by, then he is certainly on his way to where he wants to be. You see “Join Up Dots” isn't just about bringing you the superstars that have been there and done it, we want to share the kind of stories that will inspire all our listeners to take control of your lives. And sometimes that is people who are in the early stages, struggling to get things off the ground, and trying their hardest to build a future for themselves. Our guest decided that he had to try to create just that, his own future, and for the last five months has set out on a path which I guess was pure sink and swim. With only enough money to cover his expense for those five months, he quit his corporate job, turned on his computer, and set to work. And day after day since then he has been doing everything he can to earn enough to remain free from corporate America. It has been a learning curve built on pure desire and passion Well has he done it, has he gained the freedom he wants? Let's find out his website is called Five Months To Freedom and he is the one and only super entrepreneur Stephen Rykwalder.
