At a time of uncertainty within higher education, it is refreshing to know that there are knowledge leaders working to define what opportunities stand before us. Artificial Intelligence, education as a service industry, on-line education, enrollment decline, value assessment vs. rising costs, and an audience that doesn't learn the same way that previous generations did, all combine into a stew of challenge; a stew that needs the right amount of seasoning from educational leaders, faculty members, and potential students. Join Robert (Skip) Meyers, PhD as CAFÉ Talks leads a discussion about such topics as co-learners, intellectual humility, meta cognition, and hybrid flexible modeling. What will higher education look like in the next decade.
Teacher retention is one of the leading challenges we are facing in our current Education System, with our incredible pre-service educators not lasting longer than 3-5 years in the profession. If we are to have any hope of creating educational change within our school system, it really starts with looking at how our beginning teachers can not only 'survive' in education - BUT truly 'thrive' and actually LOVE the work they are doing with our children.But are we throwing them under the bus? They come out of university with NO real education or training about child brain development or stress responses in children. They are not equipped to be able to cope with the rising demands of data collection, Disability Inclusion Profile applications and report writing - all of the things which actually suck a lot of joy out of being an educator.Today's insightful discussion is with Em Gentle who is dedicating her work to supporting our beginning teachers so that, hopefully, they can stick it out long enough to actually see their pedagogical beliefs, practices and achievements really start to develop. If its one thing we know about teaching, its the kind of job that you get better at the longer you are in the classroom.This also means that you are going to make mistakes - in fact - you MUST make mistakes to work out who you are as an educator. We are all life long learners and it's ok not to have it all worked out yet.But how can we provide our beginning teachers with enough support whilst they 'learn on the job' and lead them towards achieving a fulfilling career in education?You can read more about Ems amazing work here: https://www.thegradguide.com.au/about

According to the late Octavia Butler, ”God is Change and in the end, God prevails.” Though Butler passed in 2006, her words resonate deeper than ever. And while she's no longer able to chart out fantastical journeys across the stars, the philosophy that structures her work is one of the principle inspirations for adrienne marie brown's book, Emergent Strategy. I won't try to define the scope of Emergent Strategy in my introduction, but at its essence, it's an orientation, stance, framework, and spellbook for organizing and facilitating change. My guest this week, Jeffrey Austin, is a literacy consultant with Wayne, RESA in South East Michigan, has been using adrienne marie brown's work to facilitate team meetings, structure professional learning, and support educators across his district. It takes us the whole of the episode to unearth what emergent strategy is and how it might look in an educational context, but Jeffrey's brilliant explanations and examples were incredibly powerful and tangible. In fact I think this might be one of my most useful episodes yet for educational leaders and organizers. There are a number of reasons for this, but principle among those is the fact that Jeffrey doesn't just offer platitudes about changing educational systems. He embodies it. If my intro has you curious, consider this episode your primer for diving into the world of Emergent Strategy.

The education system in the United States has been mainly geared toward creating a neurotypical learning environment, but not everyone absorbs and processes information in the same way. In this episode, I talk with the amazing Erica Whitfield, a therapist and passionate visionary for creating neurodivergent-friendly schools. We explore the significance of movement in learning and processing information. Both children and adults can benefit from incorporating movement into their educational experiences. Erica sheds light on the importance of validation, patience, and understanding, particularly for neurodivergent children, to prevent meltdowns and foster a supportive learning environment. Here are three key takeaways: 1️⃣ Pursue your dreams: Erica encourages us to explore the dreams we haven't even imagined yet. By taking steps towards what truly aligns with us, we can experience joy and fulfillment in our lives. 2️⃣ Redefine education: We discuss the impact of segregating children into same-age peer groups and the consequences of imposing arbitrary learning timelines. Erica quotes Carol Black, highlighting the need for a shift in educational approaches and acknowledging the importance of movement in learning. 3️⃣ Embrace change: Erica shares her journey of pivoting and making hard decisions to create space for new pursuits. She reminds us that entrepreneurship is a journey of evolution and adaptation, and it's okay to change course as our passions and interests evolve. One thought-provoking moment from the podcast was when Erica asked listeners to share a word they'd never heard before. This exercise is a reminder that there are worlds of knowledge and dreams that we have yet to explore and imagine. To address the challenges faced by parents seeking inclusive and neurodivergent-friendly education, Erica is forming a team of like-minded individuals. This diverse team, comprising parents from different educational backgrounds, aims to raise awareness, advocate for change, and create classrooms that genuinely support every child's unique needs. Lastly, we explore the importance of pivoting and adapting as entrepreneurs. The realization that pursuing certain activities may no longer serve our goals can open up new avenues for creativity and fulfillment. By stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing change, we teeter on the line between fear and comfort, allowing ourselves to reach new heights in our profession.

Thanks for all your support and I'll be back in September! https://freshedpodcast.com/contact-2/ -- There's an urban legend that Winston Churchill, near the end of World War II, once said “never let a good crisis go to waste.” President Obama's chief of staff, Rahman Emanuel, certainly said similar words in 2009 after the Global Financial Crisis. Is the crisis in education today caused by the coronavirus an opportunity to make lasting and positive change? How can we be sure not to waste this moment by returning to normal? Yong Zhao joins me to talk about educational change in the time of COVID-19. He argues that we must change the “yes, but” attitude to a “yes, and” collaborative approach. We must be innovative and work together to redesign education systems into something new. He's hoping to see more self-directed learning emerge out of this crisis as well as a shift towards the humanities and philosophy. Yong Zhao is a Foundation Distinguished Professor in the School of Education at the University of Kansas. His newest book is entitled Teaching Students to Become Self-Determined Learners (ASCD, 2020). www.freshedpodcast.com/yongzhao-2/ -- Get in touch!

On the show this week, I am talking with career and leadership coach Jeff Ikler. Jeff has worked for nearly 50 years to help students, teachers, and administrators acquire knowledge and find meaning in their work. Students need more agency and to be cared about by adults at school. Educators are at their best when they recognize that the things students go through and manage in their lives have a direct effect on their desire and ability to put academic work in. If teachers want to shift their mindsets and start making those changes, there's no reason it can't be attempted at a school or district level. Not to mention, we discuss how students don't need to be steered towards college as the only goal. What would happen if we took their needs and desires into account when it comes to them figuring out their future? Liked this episode? Rate, review, and share! Links: Guest can be found on website.

Whether you’re a parent, an educator, or just a concerned citizen, you have a big stake in what happens in our classrooms – the incubators of our future. If you listen to education transformation advocates, we need to change those incubators by recognizing that we’re in a post-industrial society and build an educational system that better prepares children for it. To support that discussion, we welcome four school leaders from the Mesa, Arizona Public Schools who are leading the change effort now.

There’s an urban legend that Winston Churchill, near the end of World War II, once said “never let a good crisis go to waste.” President Obama’s chief of staff, Rahman Emanuel, certainly said similar words in 2009 after the Global Financial Crisis. Is the crisis in education today caused by the coronavirus an opportunity to make lasting and positive change? How can we be sure not to waste this moment by returning to normal? Yong Zhao joins me to talk about educational change in the time of COVID-19. He argues that we must change the “yes, but” attitude to a “yes, and” collaborative approach. We must be innovative and work together to redesign education systems into something new. He’s hoping to see more self-directed learning emerge out of this crisis as well as a shift towards the humanities and philosophy. Yong Zhao is a Foundation Distinguished Professor in the School of Education at the University of Kansas. His newest book is entitled Teaching Students to Become Self-Determined Learners (ASCD, 2020). https://www.freshedpodcast.com/yongzhao-2/ -- Get in touch!

Anthony Mackay sits down with Carol Campbell, associate professor of Leadership and Educational Change at the University of Toronto’s Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), to discuss teacher learning and leadership in today’s changing world. Campbell, whose research focuses on strengthening professional capacity to improve student opportunity, learning, achievement and equity, highlights the importance of teachers sharing and developing their own learning by engaging in professional learning opportunities. As an example, Campbell details the Teaching Learning and Leadership Program (TLLP) in Ontario, a joint initiative through a partnership between the Ontario Teachers’ Federation (OTF) and the Ontario Ministry of Education, in which teacher teams apply to receive funding to conduct a project linked to an area of student need they’ve identified. These teachers then become responsible for the professional learning of others and commit to sharing their knowledge and practice beyond their own school.

“First, there is no evidence to justify, let alone prove, the claim that PISA indeed measures skills that are essential for life in modern economies. Second, the claim is an imposition of a monolithic and West-centric view of societies on the rest of the world. Third, the claim distorts the purpose of education.” writes University of Kansas professor Yong Zhao in his latest article in the Journal of Educational Change titled “Two decades of havoc: A synthesis of criticism against PISA”. In this episode of Re:Teaching I'll summarize Professor Zhao's analysis and try to help listeners understand what is the PISA test, what are its limitations, and what should we do about it?

You’ve probably heard about the elaborate Olympic handover from Rio to Tokyo that included a video animation of Super Mario walking through Shibuya, jumping through a green tube, and then appearing at the closing ceremony in Rio. The super Mario custom dropped to the floor and there was, lo and behold, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, standing in a red hat holding a red ball, ready to take the helm of the Tokyo Olympics, which will take place in 2020. It was an unusual moment, to say the least, for the Japanese leader, who is typically reserved and anything but showy. But the scene perfectly captured the contemporary push by the Abe administration to internationalize Japan. There he was in front of a global audience, showing off Japan’s athletes and pop-culture icons. Abe has been on a march to change Japan: he’s trying to alter the constitution to allow Japan to send military forces abroad, something that has not been done since World War II. And his administration started something called super-global universities, which aim to allow graduates to “walk into positions of global leadership.” Reforms to Japanese education are not knew and we can learn a lot by looking at previous experiences. My guest today, Peter Cave, has a new book that explores changes in Japanese junior high schools in the 1990s and in the early 2000s. Dr. Peter Cave is a Senior Lecturer in Japanese Studies at the University of Manchester. Through an ethnography of two schools over 11 years, he was able to detail how, if at all, educational reforms translated into educational practice. And these insights can help us understand the reforms being proposed today by the Abe administration. Peter Cave’s new book is “Schooling Selves: Autonomy, Interdependence, and Reform in Japanese Junior High Education”, which was published this year by the University of Chicago Press.
Today we look at developmental leadership in the Philippines. My guest is Professor Michele Schweisfurth. In a recent report for the Developmental Leadership Program, with support from the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Michele and a team explored the ways in which higher education has supported the emergence of developmental leaders and the formation of networks among leaders in the Philippines. Michele Schweisfurth is Professor of Comparative and International Education at the University of Glasgow, where she is also co-Director of the Robert Owen Centre for Educational Change. Her latest co-written report on developmental leadership in the Philippines can be found on FreshEd’s website: FreshEdpodcast.com. Check it out today.

In late 2001 Finland became the darling of the education and policy communities, as its students toped the reading literacy, mathematics, and science PISA test rankings. While these results were somewhat of a surprise to Finns, the outcomes persisted throughout subsequent cross-national examinations. Policymakers and educators from across the world have since been fascinated as to how the Scandinavian country created such a successful system. Was it the teachers? The students? The schools? In Finnish Lessons 2.0: What Can the World Learn from Educational Change in Finland? (Teachers College Press, 2014), Dr. Pasi Sahlberg, visiting professor at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education, explains the nuances of his homeland’s educational system and even its historical foundations in this new updated version. The book offers lessons that can be understood by policymakers in other systems, but also provides a strong counter to the Global Education Reform Movement (GERM), which, dubbed by Dr. Sahlberg, is led by calls for increased standardized testing, school competition, and privatization. Above all, Dr. Sahlberg hopes that this book and the Finnish experience can put faith back into the idea of public education. Dr. Sahlberg joins New Books in Education for the interview and you can follow him on Twitter at @pasi_sahlberg or find his website at pasisahlberg.com.

Leading Learning: True leaders make change happen. If we define leadership as influence, then the effective leader has the ability to influence others to accomplish group objectives. For far too long in education, leadership was only expected from those in supervisory positions. But what about a teacher’s leadership in the classroom? What about students learning how to be positive leaders? This presentation will explore the Promise of Leadership in Educational Change.
