Send me a message.In this episode of Talking D&T, I'm delighted to chat with Venessa Lourdes Silveira, a PhD student in Educational Theory and Practice with a fascinating background in design and technology education. We dive into Venessa's action research project on promoting creativity in secondary D&T classrooms through biomimicry.Our conversation explores how nature-inspired design methods can spark student engagement and innovative thinking. Venessa shares insights from her collaborative work with classroom teacher Paul Maburu, revealing how outdoor learning experiences and carefully crafted prompts can transform students' design processes.We discuss the challenges and rewards of implementing biomimicry in D&T lessons, touching on its potential to address wider issues like climate change and mental health in education. Venessa's approach offers a fresh perspective on moving beyond design fixation and embracing local knowledge and resources.For D&T educators, this episode provides practical strategies for incorporating biomimicry into your teaching practice. We consider how cross-curricular collaboration, particularly with science colleagues, can enrich design projects and deepen students' understanding of the natural world.Whether you're teaching in the UK or internationally, Venessa's research offers valuable insights into fostering creativity and environmental awareness through D&T. As you listen, consider how you might adapt these ideas to your own classroom context.How might biomimicry reshape your approach to design challenges?

Where does boredom come from? Have humans always experienced boredom, or has it only come on in the entertainment age, having more time than we know what to do with? Kevin Gary (Valparaiso University) is author of Why Boredom Matters: Education, Leisure, and the Quest for a Meaningful Life. He joins Drew Collins & Evan Rosa to reflect on the discontent and disconnection that boredom constantly threatens. They discuss the phenomena of boredom, the childhood experience of it, whether its good or bad, the definition of boredom, its connection to entertainment and education, and finally the role of attention and leisure in cultivating a healthy understanding and response to being totally bored out of our minds.This episode was made possible in part by the generous support of the Tyndale House Foundation. For more information, visit tyndale.foundation.About Kevin GaryKevin Gary is a Professor of Education at Valparaiso University. He has a Ph.D. in cultural and educational policy studies from Loyola University Chicago with a focus in the philosophy of education and an M.A. in systematic theology from the University of Notre Dame. His teaching experience includes 10 years of teaching theology at Loyola Academy High School in Wilmette, Illinois.; seven years as a professor of education and philosophy at Goshen College in Goshen, Indiana; 8 years as a professor of education at Valparaiso University in Valparaiso, Indiana; and one year as faculty director of Goshen College's international studies program in Lima, Perú.Dr. Gary's research is primarily in philosophy of education. He recently published, Why Boredom Matters: Education and the Quest for a Meaningful Life with Cambridge University Press in 2022. K-12 educators (and parents) face bored students every day. Drawing on multiple disciplines Dr. Gary makes a case for teachers guiding students to engage with boredom constructively, steering clear of restless boredom avoidance on the one hand, or passive submission to boredom on the other.Dr. Gary has published in multiple journals, including Educational Theory, the Journal of Philosophy of Education, and Studies in Philosophy and Education.Dr. Gary is one of the founding executives of the North American Association for Philosophy and Education (NAAPE), launched in 2018. NAAPE provides an international forum for scholars working at the intersection of philosophy and educational thought, where disciplines such as ethics, political philosophy, epistemology, philosophical anthropology, history, and others meet the practical challenges of teaching and learning.Dr. Gary is passionate about liberal education, especially within the context of a Christian liberal arts university, which aims to cultivate practical wisdom, compassion, and a Renaissance spirit.Show NotesKevin Gary's Why Boredom Matters: Education and the Quest for a Meaningful LifeA quick and incomplete history of boredomThe Preacher of Ecclesiastes laments over human toil, “everything is vanity and chasing after wind” around 250 BC. “The eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear with hearing.”Stoic Roman philosopher Seneca noticed a nauseating tedium in his famous letter “On Tranquility,” describing a familiar quote “vacillation of a mind that nowhere finds rest, and the sad and languid endurance of one's leisure. Thence comes mourning and melancholy and the thousand waverings of an unsettled mind, which its aspirations hold in suspense, and then disappointment renders melancholy. Thence comes that feeling which makes men loathe their own leisure and complain that they themselves have nothing to be busy with.”The ancient Christian monks of the desert struggled with the noonday demon of acedia, a spiritual boredom with their vocation of prayer and faithfulness.Aquinas and other scholastics disciplined the “roving mind.”Variants of the English “boredom”—including being bored to death!—show up in Lord Byron, Charles Dickens, and Herman Melville in the mid 19th century.Kierkegaard calls it the root of all evil.Heidegger sees it in a positive light, saying that philosophy begins in the nothingness of boredom.C.S. Lewis's Uncle Screwtape advises that “anything or nothing is sufficient to attract the wandering attention” of Jr. Demon Wormwood's human patient.The French bourgeoisie nailed it with ennui that many a suburban latchkey kid can relate to.In the King-Kubrick masterpiece, The Shining, boredom goes very dark when “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.”Boredom for children: How to respond to the boredom children feelIs boredom bad or good?What's the definition of boredom?Tolstoy on boredomKierkegaard on living life to avoid boredomKierkegaard as a form of existential despair; boredom as an indicator that we're not comfortable with ourselves.Chasing novelty, looking for the new; or giving up and resigning our agencyHeidegger was influenced by Kierkegaard; and thought you must push through it to find your true, authentic self.Kierkegaard's view of the “authentic self” is the self resting in God.“Schola” (Latin): attentively receptive.Simone Weil on tedium, boredom, and attentionLiving in an “attention economy” and controlling or stewarding others' attentionAttention as an antidote to boredomSimone Weil's experience working in a car factory and losing her sense of agency and selfPhilosopher Albert Borgmann on “focal practices” and guardrails.Go chop wood for an hour, and simply do it.Go for a walk for an hour without your smartphone.Boredom and entertainment in a perverse binary orbitSimone Weil “Reflections on the Right Use of School Studies with a View to the Love of God” in Waiting for God (link to PDF)Entertainment is, therefore, not the problem.“The entertainment-boredom cycle just becomes more boring.”Leisure as antidote to boredomSabbath as oasis from work filling up our lives.Thomas Aquinas's “roving mind”Let's go birding!Liturgy as the guardrails of attentionBe an apprentice and learn to experience and perceive in a new way.Mindful in the mundaneGordon Wood's History of the American Revolution: politicians as “disinterested men of leisure”Fighting against instrumentalization.Intrinsic goods of doing the dishes.“The bored mind is missing an opportunity for leisure.”“I like to fish… and any fishing guide will tell you they call it fishing, not catching, for a reason.”“Having resources does not guarantee the experience of leisure.”Josef Pieper and Abraham Heschel and the tradition of Intellectus and WonderHow leisure as both active and contemplative, and its role in a flourishing lifeProduction NotesThis podcast featured Kevin Gary and Drew CollinsEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Macie Bridge and Logan LedmanA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to the Tyndale House Foundation.

Stefan recently co-edited a 650 page volume featuring 32 authors with expertise in education, technology and the law on the impact of generative ai and education and has run many webinars and classes teaching students and teachers about generative artificial intelligence tools. He is also experienced Debate Coach and nonprofit leader with a demonstrated history of working in the education management industry. Skilled in Online Learning (more than 1,000 hours of direct instruction and more than 5,000 hours provided through DebateUS.org), Student Development, Tutoring, Curriculum Development, and Public Speaking.I love this book and you should check it out here:Chat(GPT): Navigating the Impact of Generative AI Technologies on Educational Theory and Practice: Educators Discuss ChatGPT and other Artificial Intelligence Tools https://amzn.to/3IU7lxrLISTEN NOW:Apple Podcast – Find this episode and all the previous episodes on Apple PodcastSpotify – Find this episode and previous episodes of the show on Spotify!Challenges & Goals:The conversation focused on understanding the impact of AI technologies like ChatGPT on education, encouraging proper debates that promote learning rather than just defending one's stance, and involving everyone in conversations about AI technology to ensure its ethical use. Additionally, integrating AI tools into the educational process without compromising academic integrity and adapting to the rapidly changing technology landscape in education were discussed.Big Takeaways:- AI technologies like ChatGPT can generate speeches and rebuttals for debates, potentially changing how students prepare for them.- There is a significant knowledge gap among educators regarding AI technologies, leading to misunderstandings about their capabilities and limitations.- Students are already using AI tools for various purposes, sometimes even without their teachers' knowledge or approval.- The concept of originality is becoming increasingly complex as AI-generated content becomes more sophisticated and indistinguishable from human-written work.Emerging Patterns:- The increasing influence of AI technologies on various aspects of education, from research to writing assignments.- A shift towards synthesis rather than originality as a key skill for students.- The need for educators to adapt their teaching methods to incorporate AI tools effectively.- An increasing focus on persuasive communication skills across different platforms (physical vs online).Key Moments:1. "My whole life has really been about debate and about arguments and about ideas and about people because obviously the arguments are useless without the people."2. "This affects everybody, this affects kids, this affects adults, this affects their careers, this affects their jobs, this affects the teachers."3. "We need people to chime in and say maybe this one is GDPR compliant... but I think everybody needs to be involved in these conversations."4. "If you don't get involved [in discussions about AI],  then it's gonna use you."5. "I am kind of proud of the fact that it isn't like a book written by education technology experts... I think a book written by 20 different people with diverse backgrounds leads to a different place."Recommendations:Educate all stakeholders about the basics of AI technologies so they can make informed decisions about its usage.Encourage open discussions among educators with diverse perspectives to better understand the implications of AI tools in education.Develop guidelines for ethical use of AI-generated content within educational settings.Conclusion:This conversation revealed that while there are significant benefits associated with using AI technologies like ChatGPT in education, there are also potential drawbacks that must be considered carefully. By engaging in open discussions and understanding the basics of these technologies, educators can make informed decisions about their use and ensure that they contribute positively to educational theory and practice. Further testing and development are necessary to address concerns related to ethics, safety, and potential negative impacts on diversity, equity, and inclusion.RESOURCES & FURTHER LEARNING:We discuss lawyers using these tools back in April and just recently this happened so we are not replaceable yet!Read all of his work on LinkedInAnd quite simply read the book!FAVORITE MOMENTS FROM THE CONVERSATION:

Brezicha's research interests focus on how education supports individuals' abilities to equitably participate in the democratic processes at both the local and national levels. Her research considers domestic and international contexts. Specifically, she has studied how immigrant students' experiences of in/exclusion in their schools has shaped their knowledge, attitudes, habits and dispositions towards the political process in the U.S. and Canada. She has also examined how teachers, educational leaders and school boards have facilitated educational opportunities for diverse student populations. She has presented her work at conferences such as American Educational Research Association annual meeting, University Council for Educational Administration Convention and Comparative and International Education Society Conference. Before pursuing her doctorate, Brezicha taught kindergarten through fifth-grade special education students in New York City.

She has presented this research at the American Educational Research Association, the University Council for Educational Administration, and the American Anthropological Association. Her collaborative work has allowed her to publish critical case studies to look across time, place, and population to advance the field of immigrant education. Miranda's teaching experience spans high school to graduate courses.  She taught 9th-12th grade science for seven years in three different schools for English learners in the U.S and Colombia before pursuing a Ph.D.  She taught pre-service teachers at Queens College before accepting her current position at Barnard.  Show Highlights Immigrant-origin youth New Americans A sense of belonging Othering vs. Belonging Sense of belonging missteps Strategies for creating a sense of belonging for immigrant students Connect with Kristina and Chandler Kristina's Faculty Page Chandler's Faculty Page Actions Speak Louder Than Words: Examining School Practices That Support Immigrant Students' Feelings of Belonging Additional Resources Amplifying Student Voices January 19-21 Book Dr. Eakins Watch The Art of Advocacy Show Learn more about our Student Affinity Groups Free Course on Implicit Bias 20 Diversity Equity and Inclusion Activities FREE AUDIO COURSE: Race, Advocacy, and Social Justice Studies

About This Episode: Take a walk through Bryant, Arkansas with Parkway Elementary's Library Media Specialist, Chrystal Burkes. In this episode we learn about some of the biggest misconceptions about libraries and how to make them an innovative, fun hub of learning for everyone. Guest Bio: Chrystal Burkes started her journey to be an educator at the University of Central Arkansas in 2006. After graduating, Chrystal began teaching third and fourth grade while she completed her Master's Degree in Educational Theory and Practice through Arkansas State University. She adopted cutting-edge teaching practices such as a flipped classroom teaching model and flexible seating ideology in your classes. Chrystal then completed her second Master's Degree in Library and Media through Southern Arkansas University's graduate program in August 2018. Inspired by her graduate courses, Chrystal took on additional leadership roles in your school building such as coordinating a school-wide digital citizenship event and heading a weekly technology training program for teachers and staff. This work earned her the honor of being named Bryant Teacher of the Year 2017-2018. Eventually, she progressed to being named Teacher of the Year for her co-op area, and later was named a top-four semifinalist for Arkansas Teacher of the Year. That same year, Burkes was also awarded Little Rock Family Magazine's 2019 Amazing Educator Award. In August 2018, Chrystal became the Library Media Specialist at Parkway Elementary in Bryant. She was also recently named Arkansas Association of Instructional Media's (AAIM) Library Media Specialist of the Year 2020. She has continued to bring innovative and engaging lessons to her students every day by incorporating technology, real world examples, and student interest into her lessons. She isn't afraid to step out of the norm and challenge herself and her students to new ways of thinking and learning. Her goal is to help all students and teachers become educated citizens and positive contributors not only in their classrooms, but ultimately in society. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/stacey-mcadoo/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/stacey-mcadoo/support

During the decades-long slumber of conservatives, the woke have been continually hatching plans to abolish America piece by piece, replacing it with woke AmeriKa. Leftist control of culture is now virtually absolute, especially over education. Leftists control university departments of education where they turn impressionable students into revolutionary disciples who sashay into government schools armed with notebooks full of lesson plans and brains full of leftist dogma on race, sexuality, equity, oppression, and American history. From their ivory tower perches “education” professors launch not only missionaries but also professional journals, activist organizations, and blogs. Just as liberalism birthed “progressivism,” “progressivism” has now birthed anarchy in the form of the new “abolition” movement. One of the chief proponents of the abolition movement is Bettina Love, associate professor in the Department of Educational Theory and Practice at the University of Georgia. Love is a black lesbian who co-founded the Abolitionist Teaching Network in 2020. In describing “abolitionist education,” Love makes clear its roots in critical race theory: It comes from a critical race lens and applies methods like protest, boycotting, and calling out other teachers who are racist, homophobic, or Islamophobic. When asked in an interview if she wants to abolish school, Love declares adamantly, “Yes” and defends her goal by alleging schools are irremediably infected by white privilege: Read more...

Dr. Kimberly Scott is a professor of women and gender studies in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University (ASU) and the founding executive director of Arizona State University’s Center for Gender Equity in Science and Technology (CGEST). She's a visionary leader and a business-savvy education administrator who is recognized as an international subject matter expert in STEM-related topics and advocacy that aims to enhance education opportunities for women and girls of color. Kimberly has published pieces in outlets such as the International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education, International Journal of Gender, Science, and Technology, Feminism and Psychology, Huffington Post and Slate, among others.  Prior to her academic career, Dr. Scott worked as an urban educator with international and national institutions including a center for girls in Chiang Mai, Thailand, the Education Loss Center in Newark, New Jersey, and the Smithsonian's National Museum of African art. A highly successful grant writer in support of programs and research for girls of color and digital media use, Kimberly was named in 2014 as a White House Champion of Change for STEM Access. That same year, the publication Diverse Issues in Higher Education, identified Dr. Kimberly Scott as one of the top 30 women in higher education. Kimberly earned her PhD in Educational Theory, Policy, and Administration from Rutgers University. Prior to that, Kimberly received her MS in Curriculum and Instruction/Elementary Education from Long Island University. She also earned her BA in Art History and French Literature from Smith College.  What You’ll Hear On This Episode of When Science Speaks [01:03] Mark introduces his guest, Dr. Kimberly Scott [02:47] Why Kimberly founded the Arizona State’s Center for Gender Equity in Science and Technology (CGEST) and what programs they offer [07:17] Common misconceptions about women of color in the STEM workforce [10:39] Effective responses to address the misconceptions about women of color in the STEM field [12:51] Why diversity is a need-to-have in any organization [17:42] How CGEST shares their information and arguments in favor of diversity in STEM-related fields to policy makers  [20:28] Why women of color are less likely to get approval from venture capital and angel investors [23:30] What to expect at the 4th National Annual STEM Collaborative Women of Color in STEM Entrepreneurship Conference 2020 [28:25] Kimberly speaks about the 2020 priorities of CGEST Connect with Kimberly Scott Kimberly Scott on LinkedIn Center for Gender Equity in Science and Technology Women of Color STEM Entrepreneurship Conference The challenges in STEM for girls and women of color Minority women face many challenges in life because of society’s preconceived misconceptions about them, boxing them in and limiting what they can do. In STEM-related fields, girls and women of color are often tagged as uninterested and lacking motivation, often times being questioned about how they are to avoid failure in their projects versus how they are planning to succeed. The difference in the language used when talking to and about girls and women of color in STEM can be discouraging but according to Dr. Kimberly Scott, that shouldn’t be the case at all. Trained as a sociologist of education and childhood, Dr. Kimberly Scott's interdisciplinary work examines the social and academic development and achievement of girls of color in informal spaces and their technosocial innovations. She is an authority when it comes to topics that discuss the limitations and boxed-in-misconceptions often imposed on girls and women of color, and how these misconceptions hinder them from pursuing careers in STEM and also, why pushing the envelope can be gratifying once they succeed and prove to the world how wrong it was. The case for diversity in business and organizational success Dr. Scott believes that despite the slow emergence of diversity, there is evidence that shows that when a business embraces diversity, they are likely to get a greater return on investment. She goes on to explain that diversity brings with it diverse ideas that lead to more innovative and creative products. Therefore it is no surprise that companies with greater gender and racial diversity are correlated with greater profitability.  Beyond the business sector, Kimberly Scott also talks about how her work over at the CGEST is helping to make the case for diversity in the public sector through policy advocacy more favorable. She shares how their studies and arguments in favor of diversity can make it easier for policymakers to know exactly what needs to be done through policy workshops and collaborations with people who have worked with policymakers to support their work.  Contribute to the solution at the 4th National Annual STEM Collaborative Taking her work further, Kimberly Scott and the CGEST are organizing the 4th National Annual STEM Collaborative entitled Women of Color in STEM Entrepreneurship Conference 2020. The conference will be held from March 18th to 20th in the beautiful Monica Beach Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii. At the conference, participants will contribute to the discussion by joining transdisciplinary teams and coming to a possible solution that will create sustainable 10-year plans that can transform STEM pathways for girls and women of color. The aim is to have a series of innovative workshops using system mapping, a novel technique that can empower them to achieve greater heights in the field.

Tests are part and parcel of the schooling experience. If a child goes to school, then I’m sure he or she will, at some point in time, have to take a test. But the nature and purpose testing has changed and seen a rapid expansion in the past thirty years. Tests have become increasingly standardized and connected to high-stake outcomes. Moreover, standardized testing has become the main tool by which policymakers measure education quality. Standardized tests are both a national and international issue. The rise of international assessments, such as the Programme for International Student Assessment and the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study, have created a world in which governments at all levels rely on standardized testing. For students, testing — and the preparation for testing — has become commonplace. My guest today, Will Smith, calls the worldwide phenomenon of standardized assessment the “Global testing culture.” Will is a senior associate with RESULTS Educational Fund, where he is developing the Right to Education Index. He completed his PhD in Educational Theory and Policy and Comparative International Education at Pennsylvania State University and has worked both as a US public school teacher and a fellow at the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development. In his new edited collection, entitled, The Global Testing Culture shaping education policy, perceptions, and practice, which will be published this year by Symposium, Will argues that the reinforcing nature of a global testing culture leads to an environment where testing becomes synonymous with accountability, which becomes synonymous with education quality.

Professor Jo-Anne Baird, Department of Education, gives a talk for the Department of Education Seminar series on 19th October 2015. Co-written by Professor David Andrich. Introduced by Dr Therese Hopfenbeck. Educational assessments define what it means to have learned and therefore have a huge impact upon teaching and learning. However, there is remarkably little connection between research and theory on learning and on educational assessment. Given the voluminous assessment that takes place annually in systematic ways in most nations it is surprising that more has not been gained from assessments in the development of theories of learning and vice versa. In this presentation, we look at the relationship between learning and assessment, consider theories of learning and theories of assessment and draw the conclusion that they should be developing more closely if assessment is in service of the goals of education. We consider fundamental aspects of assessment theory, such as constructs (what is being assessed), unidimensionality, invariance and quantifiability. We distinguish educational assessment from psychological assessment. The impact of high-stakes tests for teaching and learning is normally considered in the literature. We show how less traditional cases of international tests affect student learning. The main message is that assessment’s effects upon teaching and learning need to be at the forefront to a larger extent in assessment research and practice to ensure systemic validity.

Nathan Gilmour talks with Michial Farmer and David Grubbs on the topic of online education and its worth (or worthlessness) for liberal arts education. Starting with its roots in correspondence courses, the trio takes on the classroom experiences that the online course tries to emulate and transcend, some of the limitations inherent to online education and some arising out of current practice, and the recent craze over MOOCs. Among the ohter realities we take on are the status differences among college degrees, the potential for abuse in all sorts of college settings, and the demographics of college.
