ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
This interview offers an insightful discussion with anthropologist Tanya Luhrmann, whose pioneering scholarship has significantly advanced our comprehension of magic, esotericism, and witchcraft. In this academic interview, we critically examine Luhrmann's influential notion of "interpretive drift"—the incremental cognitive process by which individuals progressively adopt and internalise magical beliefs and practices.We engage with her seminal ethnographic research on contemporary magical and esoteric communities, investigating how practitioners utilise rituals, visualisation techniques, and imaginative practices to foster potent experiential encounters. Luhrmann elucidates the psychological and sociocultural mechanisms that underpin and sustain belief in magic and witchcraft, illuminating how rational actors negotiate and integrate esoteric practices within their quotidian existence.Employing ethnographic case studies and rigorous theoretical analyses, we explore the broader implications of Luhrmann's findings for understanding the endurance and attractiveness of magical thought within contemporary secularised societies. Scholars, practitioners, and those intrigued by the enduring relevance of magical belief will find this discussion academically stimulating, providing nuanced insights into humanity's enduring inclination to engage with the transcendent and extraordinary.Get Prof Luhrmann's bookshttps://amzn.to/4lDeYKjhttps://amzn.to/42zNVqAhttps://amzn.to/4jISm9vhttps://amzn.to/3Gfz11fABOUT OUR GUESTanya Luhrmann is a professor of anthropology at Stanford University, specialising in the study of spiritual experiences and their relation to religious practices.

Ed Magee has a fascinating career history - from the Marine Corps to decades of operations leadership at Harley-Davidson and Fender - and now he's instilling his lessons learned in a new role as Vice President for Strategic Operations at Belmont University.The truth is, university education in America is facing a crossroads: either innovate and adapt, or fade away. The workplace is changing rapidly, the market for education is changing, and what students want out of their college experience has changed. If universities don't recognize these changes and pivot, they won't be around for long.Fortunately, Ed's experience in operations leadership positions him to bring this entrepreneurial mindset to Belmont. And in this episode, we're digging into what those lessons from manufacturing are, and what higher education should be doing to adapt to the market.Inside this episode:Why systems are just as important as ambitious goalsHow to view university education through a product development lensThe value of "and, not or"How to get others on board with your big ideas3 Big Takeaways from this episode:Universities need to adopt a "startup" mindset: Higher education is facing huge changes in the market. To remain relevant universities have to pivot their educational offering to content and modes that students today want. That means adopting a startup mindset: making ambitious goals, quickly adapting to market trends, creating an innovative product that the market wants, and delivering it in a way that's meaningful and useful to students.Manufacturing operations lend themselves well to university education: From Kaizen and continuous improvement, to lean thinking, to systems and processes, the tools of manufacturing can help university leaders run a streamlined organization. By implementing these tools, universities can pivot faster, redesign an educational experience students today are looking for, and achieve bigger goals than ever before.To drive organizational change, effective leaders put people first: In any organization with big goals and initiatives, change management is all about getting people on board. While it's great for leaders to embrace and inspire toward change, what's really needed is for everyone in the organization to internalize and own the effort. That happens through listening, meeting people where they're at, investing in people, and remembering that there are more similarities than differences among us.ResourcesTo learn more about Belmont University, visit: www.belmont.eduConnect with Belmont:Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | LinkedIn | InstagramEpisode page: https://techedpodcast.com/belmont/Instagram - Facebook - YouTube - TikTok - Twitter - LinkedIn
Dr. Rich Barnhouse is an education innovator. With experience leading higher education all over the U.S., he understands how to disrupt traditional models, create sustainable change, and embrace cutting-edge technologies that will empower students to be productive in the workforce.We sat down with Rich to talk about some of his strategic initiatives as President of Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC) - including how to harness the power artificial intelligence in education.This episode is full of insights into the transformative potential of AI in the classroom, in the administrative office and in the workforce.Inside this episode:Education's innovation problem - and how to avoid crises of changeThe biggest technology transformation humankind has ever seenTwo huge AI gaps in the workforce - and how education can fix itWhy companies need associates and baccalaureates with functional AI experienceHow to harness AI to improve the teacher and student experienceThe emerging specialty field in automation that offers huge opportunities for students3 Big Takeaways from this episode:Automatic organic evolution: Because change can be hard to implement in higher education, the tendency is to stand still. This mindset has left higher ed in a crisis of change today. Instead, Rich has instilled a culture of automatic organic evolution at WCTC. It's part of the DNA of the college to consistently innovate how and what is taught - and that enables the college to move alongside industry.Companies are facing AI gaps in two key places: There is a middle level in business where data scientists and masters degreed engineers are developing and deploying AI. Above and below this level there are huge gaps in AI understanding and implementation. Education needs fill these gaps: first, bringing AI education to executives and managers to help them understand how to leverage the technology for business cases, and second, to bring AI experience to people on the shop floor who can become functional and operational experts. AI is transforming higher education not just in the classroom, but at its operational core: With the right AI tools, instructors can automate administrative and operational tasks so they have more bandwidth to focus on students and teaching. In the same way, the administrative side of higher ed can leverage data to improve the student experience, which will attract a greater number of enrollees in future years.ResourcesTo learn more about Waukesha County Technical College, visit: www.wctc.eduConnect with WCTC:Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | LinkedInEpisode page: https://techedpodcast.com/barnhouseInstagram - Facebook - YouTube - TikTok - Twitter - LinkedIn

Deep Springs College has been disrupting the traditional model of higher education for over 100 years. Located on a remote cattle ranch in Deep Springs Valley, California, the college focuses on student-led, hands-on learning to prepare individuals for a life of leadership and service to their communities.Students attend Deep Springs College for two years, and each cohort holds about 13 of the more driven, independent and intelligent students from across the country who defer their offers to attend universities like Harvard or Yale and elect to start their post-secondary journey at Deep Springs.Dr. Sue Darlington, President of Deep Springs College, shared insights into one of the most unique models for higher learning we've ever had on the podcast.In this episode, we dive in to the college's three pillars, which all tie back to the idea that the students truly take ownership of their learning journey during their two years. See all the details in our 3 Big Takeaways.3 Big Takeaways from this episode: (3 pillars of Deep Springs College)Academics: The faculty and course offerings are selected by a committee of students - this ensures the students are invested in the topics for the semester. Courses are rigorous, (often) seminar-style and lead to excellent classes that raise questions and thought-provoking discussions among both students and faculty.Labor: Students are required to work at least 20 hours of manual labor on the ranch each week. Led by a faculty mentor, the students learn skills, teamwork and discipline working on the ranch, with the animals, in the kitchen, and around the facilities.Self-Governance: Students at Deep Springs College take responsibility for many aspects of the college - from choosing faculty, to picking the curriculum, to selecting the next class of student applicants. This model helps students become well-rounded individuals who are equipped to go out and lead and serve their communities the rest of their lives.ResourcesTo learn more about Deep Springs College: www.deepsprings.eduConnect with Rockwell Automation on social media:Facebook | LinkedInView episode page: https://techedpodcast.com/deepspringscollege/Instagram - Facebook - YouTube - TikTok - Twitter - LinkedIn

In this episode, I continue the conversation with Dr. Leonard Cassuto, professor of English at Fordham University.Be sure to listen to episode #53: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/9484429Highlights:1. Tenure-track jobs are diminishing, so if we teach doctoral students to want those jobs above all other jobs, we are teaching them to be unhappy. 2. As a doctoral student you MUST be the CEO of your education (and where it lands you).3. Think about what REALLY interests you (ask: What sparks joy in me?) and then view your doctoral education as a mechanism for gaining skills that will allow you to explore many possibilities on the job market. 4. You are learning broad and transferable skills - you are becoming an information specialist, you are learning how to teach people things (orally, in the written word, formally, informally) etc.5. Stop thinking too narrowly when you think about your doctorate (truly the sky is the limit!).6. Career diversity is about taking the skills you have learned and combining them with a profession that gives you pleasure.

Are we teaching students to be unhappy? In this episode, I chat with Dr. Leonard Cassuto. He is a professor of English at Fordham University. He writes the graduate advisor column for the Chronicle of Higher Education and has been on the graduate education frontline for years – publishing The Graduate School Mess – What Caused It and How We Can Fix It in 2015 and more recently co-authoring The New PhD: How to Build A Better Graduate Education with Dr. Robert Weisbuch.They argue that graduate school has been preparing PhD students for jobs that don't exist and encouraging students to want those jobs to the detriment of their career success and personal wellbeing. 8 – 4 – 2 – 18 people begin, 4 complete, of those only 2 end up in a tenured track job and only 1 of those 2 end up at a research university/university like where they went to grad school.How do we teach students how to be happy and satisfied?Three major themesCareer diversity - Degree leads to expertise in other social sectors. No shortage of jobs if you are creative – skills you learn can apply to nearly every career imaginable.Career counseling – what to do with what you know. Socially engaged / Public Facing – Apply what you know Higher education should benefit all of society – let's reform graduate school so that it illustrates public good that higher ed is and should be. Student-Centered – versus functionary of faculty researchCare for the student – Ethically and responsiblyStakeholdersAdministrators – create the structure that allows change to happen – the buck stops at the president's office. Empower the graduate deans. Faculty – need to understand that students become first – this is a push back against history – implied and practical understanding that it is NOT for students it is an off-shot of faculty researchStudents – you have a choice – be the CEO of your graduate education – you will live the choices you make and that will become the life you live. Be thoughtful, aware, and informed. We've known what the problems are – time to do something about it!

Regina Graziani, my guest for this episode, describes herself thusly: “I'm an attorney by education and training, and a mentor by passion. I love nothing more, if you don't count calorie-free ice cream, than to assist learners to successfully transition into the legal profession and reach their professional goals. I am an advocate of, and have extensive experience, with paralegals and paralegal students, which is why I was chosen for my current role - Program Director, Paralegal Studies Program - at the University of Hartford. I regularly present on topics of interest to paralegals and attorneys, locally and nationally. I am a proponent of doing something that is difficult, challenging, and outside your comfort zone, every single day.”Regina's story illustrates so many important things about finding success, from the importance and power of advocacy, whether it's for oneself or for others, why persistence is essential for success, and how the right perspective on failure can make all the difference when life knocks us down.

As one of Forbes 30 Under 30, Nadia Masri is a serial entrepreneur who started her first company at the age of 17. As a child, she wanted to be an actress, a career that may seem radically different from what she is doing right now. However, Masri stresses that being a founder is not too different after all; founders wear many hats in the company. On some days, duties require a founder to lean into law and the next day accountant, similar to taking on different acting roles.With anyone's great success comes failure, which is analogous to life! Masri touches on her own failures throughout her career and how one can learn to overcome those failures by failing upwards.We need you!

Much of the research on dementia in the United States has overlooked African Americans, but the prevalence of dementia in this population is more widespread than you might think. PhD candidate Kalisha Bonds is doing a deep dive into the subject as a student at Oregon Health & Sciences University (OHSU). Her research is focused on decision-making and the use of formal medical care by African Americans with dementia and their care partners. Kalisha tells us how being raised by her grandmother inspired her career path and what she's uncovered so far in her research. She tells us how she finds research participants in the Portland area, and how the culture compares with the rural Tennessee town where she was raised. She also defines a word you'll find hard to forget: dyad. Kalisha Bonds, MSN, PMHN-BC, is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Nursing at OHSU.To purchase a transcript of this episode please visit this page: TranscriptsOHSU Profile of Kalisha BondsAlso mentioned in the interview:“Formal Service Use by African American Individuals with Dementia and Their Caregivers: An Integrative Review” – Journal of Gerontological Nursing (K.
