Podcasts about education culture

In this episode of Radical Learning Talks, we talk about what culture creation is and why we find it to be one of the most important things to focus on when choosing to walk the unconventional path of Self-Directed Education. Culture creation is about putting words on what is important for everyone, and consciously embodying those values. This link is often what's missing for most people who want to make the paradigm shift from conventional schooling to SDE. Whether your family is unschooling or you're running (or thinking about starting) an SDE learning center, it's crucial to understand WHAT exactly you're walking away from so that you don't copy/paste those systems in the new path forward.

What does it mean to get a higher education in the United States? It used to mean that young adults would learn to think critically and formulate educated opinions for themselves.

School board meetings across the country are increasingly becoming battle grounds in the American culture war. Do well-intentioned parents who want to shield their children from sensitive subject matter have legitimate concerns? And about those “sensitive” topics, how do we define what they are and what to do about them? When it comes to banning books and other forms of expression in schools, Cabrini University Chairperson and Associate Professor of Teacher Education Dr. Thomas Conway examines where the lines start to get blurred, plus potential consequences.

This week, Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy rolled out a “parental rights” bill that would put new limits on sex education in schools and prevent transgender students from using bathrooms that align with their gender identity, among other measures. Christian conservatives are welcoming the bill, while a Democratic lawmaker immediately branded it “the most divisive piece of legislation” the Legislature could hear this year. It swiftly drew comparisons to so-called “bathroom bills” being debated in other states. In this episode, host Elizabeth Harball speaks to ADN reporters Iris Samuels and Sean Maguire about the details of the governor's proposal and how it impacts the broader debate over increasing funding for Alaska's public schools.For more local and state news, subscribe to the Anchorage Daily News today.This episode of ADN Politics is sponsored by SteamDot Coffee.

In 2018 and 2019, the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment of the Northwest Territories denied six applications for admission to French-language schools made by non-rights holder parents. The ineligibility of their children was assessed according to the criteria established in the Ministerial Directive — Enrolment of Students in French First Language Education Programs developed by the government of the Territories. Because none of the criteria in the Directive applied in the circumstances, the parents asked the Minister to exercise her residual discretion to authorize the admission of the six children concerned, which was denied. The non-rights holder parents and the school board applied for judicial review of the Minister's decisions. In two judgments, the Northwest Territories Supreme Court set aside the Minister's decisions on the ground that there had been no proportionate balancing of the protections guaranteed by s. 23 of the Charter and the government's interests. The majority of the Court of Appeal allowed the Minister's appeals and restored her decisions. The court found that the chambers judge's reasoning on constitutional values had proceeded on the mistaken assumption that the case involved constitutional rights. The families in question did not qualify under s. 23 because they were not rights holders, and they therefore had no legal or statutory right or expectation to have their children attend the French-language schools. Argued Date 2023-02-09 Keywords Constitutional law - Charter of Rights, Administrative law - Constitutional law — Charter of Rights — Minority language educational rights — Ministerial directive — Administrative law — Discretion — Right to use French in court proceedings — Simultaneous interpretation — Children of non-rights holder parents — Minister denying applications for admission to French-language minority schools — Decisions set aside at first instance but restored on appeal — Whether Minister had to consider purpose of s. 23 in her decision-making process — Whether Minister's denials were reasonable — Whether there was infringement of right to use French in courts protected by s. 19(1) of Charter and s. 9(1) of OLA — In alternative, whether right to natural justice was breached — Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, ss. 19(1) and 23 — Official Languages Act, R.S.N.W.T. 1988, c.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 91 The churches are under attack, not just from without but also from within. Marxist subversion has been brought deeply into them, and they are already falling. The model for how this is being accomplished mirrors the model used to steal education, so it's little surprise that the Brazilian Marxist educator Paulo Freire is at the bottom of it. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay picks up out of the Critical Education Series (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/) in which he has been reading most of Freire's landmark 1985 book, The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT). Here, he presents the last two thirds of the tenth chapter of that book, which is dedicated not to education at all but to seeing churches as educational platforms that can be utilized in the same way as schools to raise Marxist consciousness. The model is simple: capture the colleges of education and seminaries and you get the teachers and the pastors, and once you have them you get the students and the laity. Join James to understand the goal of transforming the Christian churches in theory, practice, and agenda in this gripping podcast that exposes the roots and implementation of a devastating Marxist rot in mainline Christianity and thus the chief heresy of the twenty-first century.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 90 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 20 This episode of the New Discourses Podcast continues a long miniseries exploring Paulo Freire's landmark 1985 book The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT), and it is embedded in the broader Critical Education Theory series (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/). In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas in the ninth chapter of that book, where Freire outlines that the purpose of education is to humanize Man and the world, exactly as indicated by Karl Marx. The previous parts of this series, covering the earlier chapters of the book can be found here: Part 1: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/ Part 2: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/ Part 3: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/social-work-education/ Part 4: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/05/paulo-freire-birth-of-groomer-schools/ Part 5: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freires-perpetual-cultural-revolution/ Part 6: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freire-and-learning-to-remake-man/ Part 7: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/08/paulo-freire-and-the-critical-theft-of-education/ In this episode, the last in the formal educational series covering this book, James takes up the first part of the very weird tenth chapter of The Politics of Education, wherein Freire discusses Liberation Theology and the Role of the Church as a parallel educational institution. In this first part of this shocking chapter, before turning to the role he envisions for churches, Freire explains the religious conversion educators must go through in order to be "true" educators. He describes it as a process of spiritual death and rebirth, literally an Easter educators and religious leaders must go through to be resurrected on the side of the oppressed. This is the religious heart of the so-called "pedagogy of the oppressed" at the center of Freire's entire project and legacy. Join James to understand how Freire enabled the theft of education so that it could be transformed into religious education for the Theology of Marxism (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/01/theology-marxism/).

In the previous part (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freire-and-learning-to-remake-man/), James Lindsay presented the ideas in the eighth chapter of that book, in which Freire describes "The Process of Political Literacy" and outlines a sweeping program for education as a means to remake Man himself.

It's an incredible crime against humanity. Join him to understand how Freire enabled the theft of education from our society and our children.

In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas in the seventh chapter of that book, where Freire makes clear that education is really meant to be about conscientization, which is to say becoming Marxist. The previous parts of this series, covering the earlier chapters of the book can be found here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/social-work-education/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/05/paulo-freire-birth-of-groomer-schools/), and here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/07/paulo-freires-perpetual-cultural-revolution/). In this episode, James takes up the eighth chapter of The Politics of Education, wherein Freire describes what he calls "The Process of Political Literacy."

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 76 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 12 This episode of the New Discourses Podcast continues into a second part a long miniseries exploring Paulo Freire's landmark 1985 book The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation, and it is embedded in the broader Critical Education Theory series here. In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas in the first half of the sixth chapter, wherein we see how Freire Marxified education itself. The previous parts of this series, covering the earlier chapters of the book can be found here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/social-work-education/), and here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/05/paulo-freires-marxification-of-education/). In this episode, James takes up the more complex second half of chapter six, revealing how Freire's "dialogical model" of education is, in fact, the birthplace of what he has elsewhere referred to as "Groomer Schools." Join him to understand how Freire didn't just Marxify education but also retooled pedagogy to amount to Marxist political grooming, which is far worse than mere indoctrination.

In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas of the fifth chapter, wherein the seeds of Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) are laid as Freire describes how education and social work are closely related. The previous parts of this series, covering the earlier chapters of the book can be found here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/), here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/), and here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/social-work-education/). In this episode, James dives into the first half of the sixth chapter, which goes deeply into Freire's model for education. In fact, what we see in this episode makes sense of the ones before it while setting the stage for all the ones that follow. Paulo Freire Marxified education itself. That is, Freire redefined literacy, education, and even knowledge according to the usual bourgeois/proletarian dichotomy and thus was able to redefine literacy to mean gaining critical consciousness. Join James to hear about the Marxification of education itself, bearing in mind yet again that almost all of our kids now go to Paulo Freire's schools.

In the previous parts, James Lindsay presented the ideas of the first four chapters, revealing both how religious Freire is and how Marxist. Part 1, covering the first two chapters of the book can be found here: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/, and Part 2, covering the following two chapters can be found here: https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freire-educating-to-proclaim-the-world/. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James Lindsay reads the entirety of chapter 5 of The Politics of Education, which seems out of place at first because it addresses "the role of the social worker in the process of change." Not only is this chapter also profoundly religious, it reveals two points very clearly that are crucial to understand if one is to understand Critical Pedagogy (thus what's happening in schools). First, Freire is reproducing basic Marxist Theory with knowledge (as understood by formal education within the existing system) as the special form of bourgeois property. Second, Freire is erasing the distinction between education, which he says must be sociopolitical to be authentic, and social work, paving the way for the Social-Emotional Learning (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/03/critical-education-transformative-social-emotional-learning-sel/) programs of today, especially Transformative SEL. Join James to dig even deeper into what it means that our children all go to Paulo Freire's schools.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 72 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 8 This episode of the New Discourses Podcast continues into a second part a long miniseries exploring Paulo Freire's landmark 1985 book The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT), and it is embedded in the broader Critical Education Theory series here (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/). In the previous part, James Lindsay presented the ideas of the first two chapters, revealing both how religious Freire is and how Marxist. Part 1, covering the first two chapters of the book can be found here (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/04/paulo-freires-politics-of-education/). In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James tackles the next two chapters of this book, chapters three and four, wherein it becomes abundantly clear that "Culturally Relevant Teaching" (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/02/critical-education-what-is-culturally-relevant-pedagogy/) is an Identity Marxist repackaging of Freirean education. His discussion highlights how messianic Freire is and pointing out that, in some sense, Freire's Critical Pedagogy stands in analogous relationship to the Gospel of John for the Marxist Theology (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/01/theology-marxism/). Freire's idea is that literacy means political literacy as understood in the Marxist way: formal education is bourgeois and Critical Education is a revolutionary praxis that can transform the oppressive state of the world. Freire's point, though, is positively religious, in the Johnnine sense in that his goal is to teach the word so the conscious can learn to speak the world. Join James Lindsay to unpack even more of what it means that all of our children now go to Paulo Freire's Marxist Sunday Schools.

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 71 Critical Education Theory Series, Part 7 Just as we have learned here on the New Discourses Podcast that we live in Herbert Marcuse's world (https://newdiscourses.com/2021/01/how-not-to-resolve-the-paradox-of-tolerance/) today (and that's why it's so messed up), we also need to understand that our children all go to Paulo Freire's schools. Therefore, we have to spend some time getting to know Paulo Freire and his approach to education, now called Critical Pedagogy or Critical Education Theory (https://newdiscourses.com/tag/critical-education-theory/), and we need to know it deeply. To serve that goal, the New Discourses Podcast has undertaken a long series on Critical Education Theory, filled with several miniseries. Here, it begins a miniseries exploring Paulo Freire's book The Politics of Education: Culture, Power, and Liberation (https://amzn.to/3IJ4ZOT), published in 1985, in considerable depth, revealing exactly what Freirean education is about. Though the introduction to this book, by Henry Giroux, already counts for two episodes of the New Discourses Podcast in this broader series, in this episode, James Lindsay begins his deep-dive directly into Freire's work. This book, The Politics of Education, is nothing short of revelatory, not least because it is the book that succeeded in getting Freire to be taken seriously throughout colleges of education throughout North America. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, James tackles the first two chapters of this book, giving a broad overview of Freire's general approach and beliefs about the act of study and two visions for education: one "ingenuous" and the other Critical. In the second of these, we see how Freire redefines "literacy" so that it becomes the site of a new Marxian Theory. Freire's Marxist (https://newdiscourses.com/2022/01/theology-marxism/) and Hegelian (https://newdiscourses.com/2021/05/hegel-wokeness-and-the-dialectical-faith-of-leftism/) roots are clearly exposed in just these first two chapters, as are his generally religious disposition with regard to Marxism. Join James to understand how Freire, through this book and his other work, transformed our education system into Marxist Sunday School, five days a week, bearing in mind that nearly all of our kids go to Paulo Freire's schools.

♥ Tu étais le seul qui n'a pas abandonné jusqu'à ce qu'il ait conquis mon cœur et la chose la plus mignonne de toutes est que tu continues à le faire tous les jours. Joyeuse Saint-Valentin, mon amour! ♥ A tes côtés je me sens la femme la plus heureuse du monde et je me rends compte que mon cœur était rempli d'un amour pour toi qui grandit et s'approfondit. Félicitations pour notre journée! ♥ Toi seul as le pouvoir de me faire sentir que je peux flotter dans les airs et avec chacun de tes baisers tu me fais toucher le ciel. Joyeuse Saint-Valentin 2022, ma vie! ♥ Cette journée est parfaite pour te montrer à quel point je t'aime, être à tes côtés et te rendre si heureux. Profitons d'une belle Saint-Valentin! " ♥ Si nos chemins se croisent par coïncidence ce n'est pas grave, je sais juste que je t'aime de toute la force de mon cœur et que je t'aimerai pour toujours. L'amour. Le grand, le vrai, celui avec un grand A. L'amour qui transcende, secoue, désarçonne et transporte. Cet amour véritable qui, depuis toujours, a nourri les artistes, de l'écrivain(e) au peintre, du/de la cinéaste au/à la musicien(ne). Et bien que personne ne remette son existence en cause, la notion du « vrai amour » reste ardue à définir. Car rien n'est plus personnel que le sentiment amoureux. Dans ce contexte, difficile donc de vous donner une signification de l'amour vrai, claire et objective. À la place, voici la définition - très personnelle - d'hommes et de femmes qui l'ont expérimenté. L'amour vrai et sincère, qui résiste au temps Pour Emma, architecte bordelaise, le vrai amour, c'est celui qui résiste au temps. Celui qui ne s'explique pas, mais qui chamboule tout sur son passage. « J'ai vécu une relation en pointillé pendant toute ma vingtaine. Lorsque je l'ai rencontré, j'étais en couple. J'ai eu une aventure avec lui, ai sérieusement songé à quitter mon compagnon de l'époque mais suis finalement restée, par crainte de faire une erreur. J'ai coupé les ponts et nous nous sommes retrouvés deux ans plus tard. Cette fois-ci les rôles s'étaient inversés : j'étais célibataire, il était en couple. La situation s'est répétée, puis c'est lui qui a, cette fois-ci, coupé les ponts. Puis, deux ans plus tard, l'histoire se répète à nouveau. Nous sommes alors tous les deux en couple. Il me propose de tout quitter pour partir avec lui. J'ai très sérieusement songé à le suivre, mais je n'ai pas eu le courage de renoncer à mon quotidien, mon confort. Il est aujourd'hui marié. Malgré tout, une partie de moi ne peut s'empêcher de penser qu'on finira un jour par se (re)trouver. Entre nous, c'est un amour qui ne s'explique pas, qui résiste au temps, à l'absence de l'autre. Et qui est toujours aussi fort quand on se retrouve, même après des années de silence. » Le véritable amour existe Marta, institutrice de 36 ans, estime que le vrai amour, c'est celui qui tient bon face aux difficultés de la vie. https://lesen.amazon.de/kp/embed?asin=B07DHTHDGG&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_9HM6ACQRTCMNYG4324V3&tag=storeup09-20 ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ https://linktr.ee/jacksonlibon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #facebook #instagram #amour #couple #couplegoals #famille #relation #doudou #TotalEnergiesAFCON2022 #TeamTunisia #CAN2021 $BTC $ETH #cryptocurrency  #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Avalanche#altcoins #Crypto #NFTs #Avalanche #innovation #CryptocurrencyNews #cashback #YieldFarming #TotalEnergiesAFCON2021 #TeamMali #TUNMLI #teamegypt #afcon2021 #TeamCameroon #youtube #twitter #tiktok #love #reeĺs #shorts #instagood #follow #like #ouy #oyu #babyshark #lilnasx #girl #happybirthday #movie #olive #garden #menu #deviance #autotrader #trading #khan #academy #carter #carguru #ancestry #accords #abc #news #bts #cbs #huru bluebook #socialmedia #whatsapp #music #google #photography #memes #marketing #india #followforfollowback #likeforlikes #a #insta #fashion #k #trending #digitalmarketing #covid #o #snapchat #socialmediamarketing #bhfyp

Jacques remembers one of the most influential educational thinkers of the last 60-or-so years; Paulo Freire, who was born 100 years ago in recife in Brazil, influenced two generations of development and emancipation activists.     This started with his literacy work in Brazil in the early 1960s and after his exile from his country under the military dictatorship in 1964, spreading right across Latin America and working with the World Council of Churches, all over the world.     The publication of his 'Pedagogy of the Oppressed' in 1970 inspired large numbers of  educators both in the formal and informal sectors and his writings became obligatory inclusions in the curricula of social work, community development and social change across the world.     Jacques has personally worked with Freire and remembers his 'conscientisation' approach vividly as well as its integration in many formal university courses he has taught in. It would be very useful to go back to this work and reintroduce it during the rather troublesome times we live in at present.    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_Freire  Freire, P. (1970).

In episode 329, Jon Russell, editor of The Ken Southeast Asia, joined us in a conversation to discuss the continuing epic rivalry between Gojek and Grab in the era of COVID-19 pandemic. Starting from the perspective of Gojek, we discuss the impact and changes made after the founder's departure and how they are re-organizing to tackle Grab's onslaught in Indonesia and expanding out to other parts of Southeast Asia from Indonesia. With new investments from US tech giants, Facebook and Paypal, we discuss how Gojek is shaping itself to be a worthy rival against Grab backed by SoftBank and Alibaba in Southeast Asia. Last but not least, Jon discuss why the media streaming giants of Southeast Asia, HOOQ & iFlix failed to take on Netflix and the key takeaways for unicorn start-ups in the era of COVID-19 pandemic. Here are the interesting show notes and links to the discussion: Jon Russell (@jonrussell, LinkedIn, Newsletter, Personal Site, The Ken Profile) Since we have last spoken, you have moved out of TechCrunch and now joined The Ken. Can you talk about The Ken and what is your new role there? Grab vs Gojek in 2020 Let’s start from Gojek, a lot of things have happened. Their founder and former CEO, Nadiem Makarim has left the company and become a Minister of Education & Culture under President Jokowi’s cabinet in Indonesia. What’s the impact on Gojek after his departure? (Ref: Up for Grab? Gojek after Nadiem Makarim) They have started the expansion to Southeast Asia last year but it has not grown very well. (Ref: Gojek’s stunted SE Asia expansion story), can you talk about their challenges in expanding out of Indonesia while dealing with Grab who is competing in their backyard? That being said, they have been doing well on the fundraising front: Gojek has been invested by Facebook and Paypal (Source: CNBC).  What are the implications to Gojek as Google, Paypal and Facebook are lining up against Grab? (Ref: Facebook, PayPal’s payments play a super app-ortunity for Gojek) The US tech giants are in Indonesia just as the Chinese tech giants, for example, Meituan-Dianping which is a super app entering the market. What can Gojek and Grab learn from Meituan-Dianping? (Ref: The Gojek-Grab SE Asia super app battle with a Meituan twist) What is the impact of COVID-19 on Grab and Gojek? Both Gojek and Grab have done layoffs in the past month. How do you look at the approaches from both companies? (Grab CEO’s memo, Gojek’s layoffs) SoftBank has been taking a hit from Wework and Oyo. What is the downstream impact to Grab based on the current troubles in the Vision Fund? Is the race to dominate Southeast Asia going down to whether Grab or Gojek wins Indonesia and not the other countries (Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines and Malaysia, Singapore)?  What will the key battleground for Grab and Gojek in the coming 2021?  Impact of COVID-19 to Southeast Asia  You have written a lot of media streaming companies similar to Netflix, for example HOOQ from Singapore and iFlix from Malaysia. The COVID-19 pandemic have led to HOOQ being shut down and iFlix being acquired from Tencent. What are the key learnings from HOOQ’s downfall and iFlix’s acquisition?  What are the key takeaways from the COVID pandemic for Southeast Asia? (Ref: 7 takeaways from Covid-time digital winners and losers in Southeast Asia) Closing Can you recommend a book or movie or podcast or anything which recently made an impact to your work and personal life?

Recording of the opening remarks from a Battle of Ideas festival satellite event on Monday 18 November 2019. Schools are unique institutions. Their most obvious role is in relation to education and the generational transfer of knowledge. However, they also mediate between the state and parents in shaping the next generation. Schools enforce behavioural expectations and instil particular values while preparing children for the responsibilities of adulthood. Schools have always played this role. However, over recent years the values and expectations championed by schools have become more explicitly political and more contested. From lessons on climate change and recycling to cultural awareness days, it can appear as if schools, through children, aim at broader social change. In this respect we seem to now be witnessing the emergence of the ‘Culture Wars’ in Education. One consequence is that tensions between schools and parents spill out in conflicts over contentious issues such as teaching of sex and relationships education. However, from the contents of lunchboxes to disputes over ‘gender neutral’ school uniform policies, few area of school life now seem beyond controversy. In this special lecture and discussion, Joanna Williams, author of Consuming Higher Education: why learning can’t be bought, explores how these conflicts might be resolved. Should it be the state or parents who decide which values and behaviours to inculcate in children? And how should schools mediate between the two? SPEAKERDr Joanna Williamsauthor, Women vs Feminism and Consuming Higher Education: why learning can’t be bought; associate editor, spiked

As promised, this is the follow up episode to my examination of Compulsory Schooling first talked about in the previous episode of Up Is Down. In this one we get into the real brainwashing techniques and the dumbing down of our nation over the last century. Right off the bat I want to acknowledge the thousands of highly motivated, very talented and committed educators doing great things for our kids. They really don't get much of a fair shake. This is a serious note to listeners or critics:THIS TWO-PART SERIES IS NOT ABOUT DISPARAGING TEACHERS OR EDUCATION IN ITSELF.THESE EPISODES ARE ABSOLUTELY ABOUT USING THE LAWS OF THE STATE TO FORCE MANDATED, STATE SPONSORED COMPULSORY, INSTITUTIONAL EDUCATION UPON THE CITIZENS BY WAY OF THREAT, INTIMIDATION AND CHARACTER ASSASSINATION WITH THE EXPLICIT OBJECTIVE OF ELIMINATING FREE WILL AND CRITICAL THINKING.

A snapshot of cultural customers in education, and culture in India.

The debate surrounding Parkfield school in Birmingham and wider discussion on the role of sex and relationship classes  within educational programmes, are just the latest incidences of schools becoming a battlefield for the culture wars.  Starting with developments in the 1870s when the state intervention in schooling in England & Wales became more pronounced, James Tooley explores the impact of the ethos of state control over education right up to today’s controversies over Relationship and Sex EducationLecturer James Tooley, professor of educational entrepreneurship and policy, University of Buckingham; author, The Beautiful TreeTalking Points in this podcastIn the 1870s, private non-profit and private for-profit schools made up nearly all the educational establishments, educating 95 per cent of children.State intervention in education reflected a desire to push forward a particular set of values, creating an early instance of the education culture wars.Schools were used to also keep the working class in their own station as opposed to increasing their social mobility.An affordable grassroots private school movement that would create schools of high quality at half the cost of state education is possible.BibliographyThe Beautiful Tree: a personal journey into how the world’s poorest people are educating themselves, James Tooley, Cato Institute, 2013Education and the State: A Study in Political Economy, Edwin G West, 3rd revised edition, 1994THE ACADEMY 2019In the context of today’s instrumental approaches to knowledge, The Academy summer school is a modest attempt to demonstrate the value of scholarship, and of the worth of the university as a place of free enquiry dedicated to the pursuit of truth.IDEAS MATTER PODCASTIdeas Matter is a podcast that takes the most important issues of our times and explores the ideas and intellectual trends that have shaped where we are today.You can subscribe and listen to Ideas Matter on iTunes, Podbean or SoundCloud.  For full details of all episodes, visit the podcast page on our website  Keep up-to-date with Ideas Matter and all the initiatives organised by the Battle of Ideas charity by following us on Twitter and on Facebook.Email us at info@theboi.co.uk

FOCUS 1 / Jamie Oliver, analyse d’un phénomène médiatico-culinaire Une fois n’est pas coutume, nous allons parler cuisine. Jamie Oliver, le chef britannique sans tablier, celui qui cuisine en chemise, les manches retroussées, sourire scotché aux lèvres et dégaine décontractée, Jamie Oliver donc, va probablement devoir fermer certains de ses restaurants. Au-delà d’un charisme médiatique certain, Jamie Oliver, c’est aussi un empire. Emissions télés, livres de cuisine, chaines de restaurants… Depuis le début des années 2000, le cuisinier est sur tous les fronts. Une figure incontournable. Un véritable phénomène médiatique. Un phénomène que nous décortiquons ce dimanche avec Carlo De Pasquale, chroniqueur culinaire à la RTBF, et Maxime Paquay, journaliste économique à la rédaction de la RTBF également. FOCUS 2 / Campagne « Pardon est un début » : quand la pub se mêle de la colonisation du Congo C’est une campagne de communication qui fait du bruit. Menée par Creative Belgium (une corporation d’entreprises dédiées à la créativité), « Pardon est un début » propose aux citoyens belges d’écrire une lettre d’excuses au Congo au nom de la Belgique. Les meilleurs lettres, sélectionnées par un jury et soumises à un vote en ligne, seront ensuite rendues publiques. Pour les auteur.e.s de ces lettres gagnantes : un stage de copywriting au sein de Creative Belgium. Ce projet, que Creative Belgium a réalisé avec des experts en matière de décolonisation issus de la communauté africaine, pose question. La pub a-t-elle un rôle à jouer dans l’évolution de la société ? Des enjeux aussi importants, délicats, peuvent-ils être le sujet de campagnes pilotées par des publicitaires ? Quel est le point de vue défendu par Creative Belgium ? Nous en discutons avec Geoffrey Hantson, une des têtes pensantes de la campagne, directeur créatif de Hapiness, agence de pub belge, et membre du CA de Créative Belgium, et Julien Truddaïu, qui travaille pour l'ONG Coopération Education Culture et qui a co-écrit le livre "Congo, les dessous de la propagande coloniale dévoilée". Nouvelles Technologies / Les robots cathartiques, réceptacles de nos pulsions les plus sombres Exprimer sa colère sans blesser qui que ce soit n’est pas toujours chose aisée. C’est pourquoi une chercheuse américaine, Michal Luria, a mis au point des robots conçus pour « prendre une bonne raclée », des « objets cathartiques » comme elle les appelle. Mais ces objets sont plus que de simples punching-ball : ils réagissent aux agressions. Comme par exemple ce mignon polichinelle qui ricane affreusement en fonction des violences subies. Ou aussi cette sorte de coussin fabriqué pour être poignardé et qui se met à trembler de plus en plus fort à chaque coup de couteau, comme s’il en souffrait. Une chronique de Gilles Quoistiaux, d’une rare violence. Tendances Pub / Coca-Cola et néostalgie Coca-Cola va ressortir une canette de 1985 pour la saison 3 de « Stranger Things » en collaboration avec Netflix. L’occasion pour Frédéric Brébant de revenir, dans sa rubrique « Tendances Pub », sur la « néostalgie », technique très prisée par les marketers et les publicitaires au moment où des marques comme Fila et Ellesse reviennent sur le devant de la scène. L’Autre Web / « Mémorable », la nouvelle appli du Monde « Nous sommes convaincus que le journalisme peut et doit faire preuve de pédagogie, relier les grandes questions contemporaines avec l’actualité brûlante, éclairer le présent avec la mémoire du passé ». C’est avec ces mots qu’est introduite la nouvelle application du quotidien français Le Monde. L’application « Mémorable » est une sorte de programme de révision de culture générale basée sur les archives du journal et qui a pour but de cultiver sa mémoire sans avoir l’impression de la travailler. Une percutante chronique d’Elisabeth Debourse, notre chercheuse d’or du Web Présentation : Marie Vancutsem

[Network Series] John Orta, General Counsel at Nextdoor, and Prashant chat about the challenges John faces as a General Counsel, how he has woven together his J.D. and M.B.A. degrees, how he thinks about culture and diversity in tech, being an "in-house" lawyer vs. working at a law firm, and discuss a blog he runs on Pulitzer-prize winning fiction novels. Intro and outro music is "Origin." by Misc.Inc

Insurance companies and claim departments struggle to find time and resources to foster continuous improvement and education among their claim staff. This podcast offers six specific tactics for claim managers, supervisors and executives to embrace in order to foster a continuing education culture within the loss adjustment process. Failure to weave this into an organization’s ethos can invite institutional bad faith claims and cost companies much more than the cost of training programs. Six concrete, practical steps discussed in this podcast will show the way.

Read the original article with photos at: https://www.otsuka.co.jp/en/company/globalnews/detail.php?id=227&date=2016-04-20 The Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology awarded Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. two commendations for Science and Technology in Tokyo, Japan. One of the prizes for Science and Technology, in the Development Category, was for the research and development of delamanid. It is an effective treatment for multi-drug resistant tuberculosis. The other prize was for the development of tolvaptan, an antagonist of the vasopressin V2 receptor. The commendations were presented in late spring in a ceremony held in the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology. Each year, 9.6 million people are newly infected by tuberculosis (TB). Of these cases, 480,000 patients develop multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). And in that group, 22% develop extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB). There have been no new anti-TB drugs developed since the introduction of rifampicin over forty years ago. Senior director of the Pharmaceutical Business Division, Mr. Makoto Matsumoto, Ph.D., said, “Delamanid was approved as a new drug for the first time in approximately 40 years. However, many besides those being awarded this time contributed their efforts and cooperation during the approval process, which took over 20 years.” He continued to thank, “all those who were involved from the discovery and development of delamanid to the approval of the drug. Otsuka will continue its efforts to increase the number of patients using the drug, and will continue contributing to tuberculosis treatment worldwide.” Delamanid was approved in Japan, Europe, and Korea in 2014. The commendation was awarded to delamanid for its contribution to the medical care of TB, by addressing the pressing need for new effective treatments to the increasing occurrence of MDR-TB. A doctor looking for a drug that helped his patients excrete only water unlike other diuretics inspired Otsuka Pharmaceutical to start researching for an agent to do just that. It was discovered that this vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist may hinder the proliferation and enlargement of the cysts in the hereditary disease Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD). Otsuka subsequently played a pivotal role in the clinical development of tolvaptan for ADPKD, and it is presently the only treatment option known to delay the long-term progression of ADPKD. “I heard that this award commemorates ‘people’ who make achievements, and I am deeply moved by the fact that my life’s work involving the discovery and development of tolvaptan, which I spent 30 years on, has been recognized,” said Mr. Yoshitaka Yamamura, senior director of the Pharmaceutical Business Division. “The ‘rugged’ drug discovery we started from scratch is now contributing to patients daily, and I am sincerely proud of that fact. I hope that new drug discoveries will be made for drugs that ‘originate in Tokushima and are the world’s first’.” The commendation was awarded to tolvaptan for its contribution to the medical fields of heart failure and liver cirrhosis, as an agent with a new mode of action of water diuresis, as well as the only treatment option known to delay the long-term progression of ADPKD.    

This talk will begin by examining what passes for any education in the sciences across most of the globe, and the justifications that are offered for its place at the curriculum high table. The dominant argument for science education is economic seeing it as essential to providing an educated workforce to meet the technological and scientific needs of contemporary society. An additional but distinct case is the argument that there is a need to develop the scientific and technical knowledge that students will need to deal with the political and moral dilemmas posed by the 5 major challenges facing humanity – the supply of energy, growing sufficient food, providing clean water, sustaining health and dealing with climate change. In this talk, it will be argued that both arguments are flawed. The first, for instance, does not justify teaching the sciences to all students, and the second would demand a very different practice and curriculum than that which is commonly offered. Rather, the case will be developed that the only valid argument for teaching the sciences to all students is one based on their cultural significance – essentially a body of knowledge and understanding that represents one of the major intellectual achievement of humanity and part of the best that is worth knowing. Moreover, this achievement has led to the development of 6 distinct styles of reasoning which are a defining feature of the sciences. Each of these styles of reasoning or argument has required the invention of a set of domain-specific, ontological entities to think with, a body of procedural knowledge to use for the practice of the sciences, and a set of epistemic values and commitments that justify the products of scientific reasoning. It will be shown how styles of reasoning provide a sound basis of an argument for the cultural contribution that the sciences have made and one which would justify the value of an education in the sciences for all students. | Center for Advanced Studies LMU: 07.03.2016 | Speaker: Prof. Jonathan Osborne, Ph.D. | Moderation: Prof. Dr. Frank Fischer
