In this thought-provoking Endo Voices episode, Dr. Marcus Johnson welcomes Drs. Bekir Karabucak and Yehuda Benjamin to explore the evolving landscape of endodontic education peering into the shifting dynamics of endodontic education. Together, they examine how residencies are adapting to include vital pulp therapy, regenerative techniques, and technology-driven training—all while emphasizing the enduring value of mentorship and case-based learning. With rising application numbers and a more diverse applicant pool post-COVID, the discussion highlights the need for passion, purpose, and clinical maturity over just numbers and scores. The panel also unpacks the educator shortage, calling for more private practitioners to return to the classroom and pass on their experience. As technology and AI continue to reshape treatment strategies, the speakers stress the importance of preserving core diagnostic and humanistic skills. From debates on one-visit versus two-visit endo to managing interdisciplinary expectations, this episode paints a balanced picture of where the specialty is headed.

Our end-of-year special edition of the PCRF Education Research Journal Club where each of our panelists will share a favorite article from the educational literature in 2024.

When we first launched Growing Small Towns, we did it with a bus tour. We loaded a bunch of business professionals from the Fargo-Moorhead area onto a bus and held them hostage for eight ours (okay, not really, they were completely willing participants!) and we did a tour of the area, visited local businesses and our building, and had such a ball that a bus trip of some sort has become a repeat event.    It's a flagship thing for GST and one of our favorites because of how unique it is, and the magic that happens when you get different kinds of people together, get them out of their comfort zones, and drive them around rural America for a bit.    This episode features four bus tour participants (some multi-year participants!) and they're here to talk about how they even heard about the tour, what they loved most about it, why it's such a unique experience, and other things they learned while sort of captive on a bus for hours with a bunch of people they didn't really know In this episode, we hear from:  Dr. Ruchi Joshi Bhardwaj, Senior Program Manager of Education & Research at Grand Farm Lee Schwartz, Marketing Director at North Dakota State College of Science and Founder of Small Town Labs Leah Reed, Operations Manager at Do Good Better Consulting Emma McIntyre, Manager of Development and Partnerships at Folkways   Links and Resources Mentioned: A whole episode about the bus tour: https://www.growingsmalltowns.org/post/episode87 Lee was a guest!

Send us a Text Message.Can questioning transform teaching more effectively than lecturing? Join us on The Brighter Side of Education as we welcome Dr. Eric Mazur, the Balkanski Professor of Physics and Applied Physics at Harvard University, to discuss social learning and assessment.  Dr. Mazur is the innovator of Peer Instruction and Perusall. His motivational lectures on interactive teaching, educational technology, and assessment have inspired people around the world to change their approach to teaching. Our conversation focus on social learning strategies, as they align with the flipped classroom model, will be broken down into three parts: Peer Instruction, Just in Time Teaching and Perusall. We end with a discussion on rethinking assessment in the age of AI. We start with Peer Instruction, its workflow, and its alignment with the flipped- classroom model. Dr. Mazur recounts his eye-opening journey from traditional lectures to an approach that prioritizes student engagement through questioning. This episode highlights how shifting from information transfer to active learning can elevate comprehension and retention, proving that social learning dynamics are key to successful education.Then, we dive into the Just-In-Time Teaching methodology and its evolution into the Perusall platform. Dr. Mazur explains how these tools have transformed pre-class assignments into engaging, interactive experiences, leading to improved classroom performance. With the information transfer happening before class,  students' real-time confusion is addressed during in-person time. This segment delves into the principles and benefits of moving content interaction outside of class, setting the stage for more meaningful in-class learning.

Send us a Text Message.As instructional coaches and school leaders, we sometimes struggle to understand why teachers resist change or exhibit unproductive behaviors. In this episode we explore the research behind Choice Theory! Developed by psychiatrist William Glasser, Choice Theory emphasizes that people's behavior is driven by their desire to fulfill five basic needs. These needs include: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun. By understanding these needs, you can empower teachers by recognizing that their behaviors stem from these needs, allowing educators to address the root cause rather than just the behavior itself.

Happy Day, Friend! In this podcast episode I'm chatting with Dr. Michael Strambler about institutional neutrality and free speech; DEI, equity, and equality; and social emotional learning (SEL) and bad therapy. Michael Strambler, PhD, is an Associate Professor at the Yale School of Medicine and the Director of Child Wellbeing and Education Research at The Consultation Center within the Division of Prevention and Community Research in the Department of Psychiatry. His research encompasses two main themes. The first theme investigates the impact of social environments on the academic, psychological, social, and behavioral well-being of children and youth. In this area, he gives special attention to social and emotional learning (SEL). The second theme explores the effectiveness of school-based programs and practices in enhancing the academic performance and health of children, with a particular focus on utilizing data to inform practices and policies. As part of this endeavor, he co-directs the Partnership for Early Education Research (PEER), a research-practice partnership (RPP) based in Connecticut (CT), which collaborates with three CT communities. Strambler's academic credentials include a Ph.D. in Clinical and Community Psychology from the University of California at Berkeley.I hope you find this episode valuable!

Nate Hansford, author of The Scientific Principles of Teaching, equips teachers to discern whether or not a study is high-quality, and whether or not to apply its results to their teaching. We follow that by discussing particular pedagogies that research does not support. I highly recommend his book, which takes the mystery out of education research for busy teachers.Click here for the show notes from this episode.Pre-order my book, Reach All Readers, and get access to my science of reading mini-course - FREE!

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things for the Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.It's the 4th of April and here are today's headlines.Some of the significant changes introduced by the National Council for Education Research and Training (NCERT) in the history chapter meant for Class 12 students on the origins and fall of the Harappan civilisation. Example: Assertion that recent studies of ancient DNA were obtained from archaeological sources at Rakhigarhi, an Indus Valley site in Haryana, ruling out Aryan immigration to a call for more research into whether the Harappans and the Vedic people were the same. These changes are part of the revision and updating of history textbooks undertaken by NCERT for the academic year 2024-25, which were recently communicated to the Central Board of Secondary Education.A day after he was expelled from the party for six years for indiscipline and anti-party statements, former Mumbai Congress president Sanjay Nirupam today launched a scathing attack against the party. He said its “outdated” leaders have lost touch with ground reality and it was a party with “no future left”.vWhile Nirupam chose to attack “Nehruvian secularism” and the “Leftist circle” around the Congress leadership, he also expressed displeasure over the party denying him a ticket from the Mumbai North West Lok Sabha constituency.Former Congress national spokesperson Gourav Vallabh, who quit the party earlier in the day, joined the BJP in New Delhi. Former Bihar Congress president Anil Sharma also joined the BJP in the presence of its national general secretary Vinod Tawde. Quitting the Congress, Vallabh, who represented the party on several TV debates, said of late, he had found himself uncomfortable with several stands taken by the party. He further alleged that the Congress party is moving in the wrong direction, against the “basic principles of the party.” Gourav Vallabh had contested the Rajasthan assembly election from Udaipur constituency in 2023.The Catholic Bishops' Conference of India (CBCI) made major suggestions to all educational institutions under its jurisdiction to help address “emerging challenges due to the current socio-cultural, religious, and political situation” in the country. These are: Respect all faiths and traditions, don't force Christian traditions on students of other religions, have students recite the Preamble to the Constitution during the daily morning Assembly, and set up an “inter-religious prayer room” on school premises. The CBCI is the apex decision-making body representing the Catholic community in India.Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Ali Sabry reportedly told a local news channel that Sri Lanka does not see any need to re-open talks on a contentious island, called Katchatheevu, ceded to it by New Delhi 50 years ago. Meanwhile, former Sri Lankan envoy to India Austin Fernando, while speaking with The Indian Express said if the Indian government crosses the Sri Lankan maritime international boundary line, it would be seen as a “violation of Sri Lankan sovereignty”.This was the Catch-Up on the 3 Things by The Indian Express.

Is it just us or has it been a long time since a solid film with solid values rocked our culture? So many of the classic films seem to be aware of right and wrong in a way that's painfully absent in Hollywood today. Is it possible to reclaim any of this cultural worldview consensus? In this episode, Brett and Erin talk with Dr. Onalee McGraw, known for her tenure on the National Council on Education Research under the Reagan administration, about her project with the Educational Guidance Institute. Brett and Erin delve into Dr. McGraw's mission: educating kids about classic films and cultivating a taste for good, true, and beautiful things.
