22 years ago the Solar Schools initiative was founded to help schools better monitor and manage their energy use, and also educate kids about energy. The program has been ‘incredibly successful' at helping students and schools take charge of the energy they use. In 2023 the 600 schools they work with reduced 45,000 tons of CO2 and saved taxpayers about $7.8 million. But with increasing amounts of technology now being used in Australian schools, our schools are consuming energy at an ever-increasing rate. Rob Bruer, the co-founder and CEO of Solar Schools, outlines a case for installing solar and batteries in every school in the country, making it core to the energy mix in the country, and making energy literacy core to the school curricula.

Greetings and Welcome to another Potentially Useful episode of the TCAPSLoop Podcast. Today's show includes potential pulitzer prize winning novelist, Danelle Brostrom as well as her ghost writer in this alternate reality, Stephie Luyt. We will be discussing all things Libraries including three school library associated bills currently working their way through Michigan State Congress and how they'll effect our Certified Librarians. We focus on Information Literacy, Artificial Intelligence and of course, Bluey. Moment of Zen: “The person who deserves most pity is a lonesome one on a rainy day who doesn't know how to read.” — Benjamin Franklin   The Letter: Dear Senate Education Committee Members,   Thank you for your thoughtful consideration and questions about the “Library in Every School” bills that are sponsored by Senator Camilleri (SB741, SB742) and Senator Bayer (SB743).   At yesterday's Senate Education Committee Meeting, members of the committee asked for data about school libraries. The Michigan Association of School Librarians (MASL) has a wealth of data and we will share some of it below in several forms.   Please reach out if you have questions about this data or would like to meet to have any of your questions answered.   Thank you very much,   Kathy Lester >MASL Advocacy Co-Chair, Immediate Past-President AASL, Adjunct Faculty Wayne State University Alexa Lalejini >MASL Advocacy Co-Chair, School Librarian, Rockford Public Schools Stephie Luyt >MASL Advocacy Co-Chair, School Librarian, Traverse City Area Public Schools Carrie Betts, >MASL President, School Librarian, Birmingham Public School District, AASL National School Library of the Year Christine Beachler,  >MASL President-Elect, School Librarian, Lowell Public Schools   DATA ABOUT THE POSITIVE IMPACT OF SCHOOL LIBRARIANS   Correlation between reading scores and school librarians in Michigan According to the latest data, Michigan 46th in the nation in the ratio of students to school librarians (ratio of 2788 students per school librarian from 2021-2022) and 43rd in 3rd grade NAEP reading scores. Michigan Study About the Impact of School Librarians In Michigan, a Library of Michigan research study showed that school library media programs have a statistically significant positive impact on reading achievement in grades 4, 7, and 11. Specifically, this study showed that schools with librarians have 35 percent more fourth graders who score proficient or above than school without librarians (see page ix of the study). The Michigan reading test scores rise with the extent to which the state's school library programs are headed by qualified school librarians. The relationship between school libraries and test scores cannot be explained away by other school or community conditions at any school level. The Impact of Michigan School Libraries on Academic Achievement: Kids Who Have Libraries Succeed Other research and data about the positive impact of school librarians The Michigan Association of School Librarians has put together a document that summarizes the different ways that school librarians have a positive impact on students and includes links to research for each item. bit.ly/slibevid A good article that summarizes much of the research The article below is a great article that summarizes much of the research.

Connecting every school in the world to the Internet  One in three people around the world still doesn't have access to the Internet, including 1.3 billion children who can't get online at home.  But many of these children can't connect at school either, meaning they won't learn digital skills that are desperately needed in an increasingly digital world.  Without them they stand little chance of lifting themselves out of poverty. A global initiative run by UNICEF and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) aims to connect every single school in the world to the Internet by 2030.  But how will this be done?  How do you even find every school in the world?

Imagine being able to take EVERY school holidays off, and not just keep your business running, but actually have a successful GROWING business? Sounding like a pipe-dream... maybe something you can achieve in the future? It's not about cramming all your work into the terms and then, exhausted, flopping onto the couch for the school holidays.. what we're talking about is having a business that allows you to live life during the terms as you would hope to (with enough time for yourself and your family) AND also be able to have a significant amount of holidays during the year. Thing is, if you don't structure your business to be able to do that now, then it's highly unlikely that your future business will enable you to do it either! In today's episode my special guest, Kate Swann, founder of Kate Swann Psychology, shares with us how she almost reached the point of burnout in her practice, what she learned in streamlining her business so she could work less, earn more and be able to take all school holidays off - guilt-free!

Kate have developed a training program so she can share it all with burnt-out, time-poor therapists.

LifeVac Founder Arthur Lih Is Donating One Of His Life Saving Choking Rescue Devices to EVERY School in the US. THAT'S AMAZING so I'm helping share this news to make sure every school takes advantage of this generous gift.  LifeVac Helps Prevent Senseless Choking Deaths. And Arthur Lih who invented the life saving device thinks every school in the US should have one on hand…in case.  ‘School budgets' or lack of budgets, were holding up progress on implementing the idea, so passionate Arthur Lih got frustrated and said, never mind, I'll do it myself and donate one to every school in the U.S. I don't care what it costs.  It's gonna cost him millions, but Arthur Lih doesn't care. He's obsessed with making sure as many people as possible have access one of these life-saving devices that could mean the difference between life and death, in minutes, for anyone at any age. Arthur set out on the Life Vac mission some years ago when he was nearby a woman in a hospital weeping following the death of her young son. A grape had become lodged in the child's windpipe and the Heimlich Maneuver did not work. Arthur, the father of a similar aged child at the time, was deeply pained and deeply affected by the tragedy that he felt could have been avoided. So, he set out to do something! Arthur, who had a little bit of a background in making things, invented a simple apparatus that could clear an airway in basically a single suction pull, in the hopes that no child would ever die a senseless choking death again. Arthur's goal and LifeVacs' goal, is to save as many lives as possible throughout the world. They're doing a great job. So far 1290 lives have been saved by having a LifeVac on hand! At LifeVac, research and development headquarters in Springfield Gardens, NY, there is actually a “Wall of Saves” featuring people of all ages who lives were saved thanks to LifeVac. Those lives include, among others, a 3 yr old little girl who choked on a peanut, a 90 yr old woman in a Senior Living Facility who choked on a food, an 82 yr old man who choked on a carrot, a 2 1/2 yr old girl who choked on a grape, a 7 yr old girl who choked on bacon, and a 1 yr old girl who choked on a hot dog. The list of ‘saves' continues to grow. Just recently LifeVac Europe reported that a 70-year-old man at a private hospital in the North East of England choked on a piece of chicken, causing a complete airway obstruction. On the 2nd application LifeVac successfully dislodged the obstruction saving his life. Arthur Lih says, “We have now touched the lives of almost 1300 individuals and their families. Together we are making a difference one life at a time.” Incredible rescues around the world thanks to LifeVac's upper airway clearing device which is they say, the safest, simplest method to save an aspirating person.  Again, Arthur Lih is DONATING A LIFEVAC TO EVERY SCHOOL IN THE US. Please make sure someone from your school, your child's school or a school near you gets in touch with LifeVac to get their free LifeVac Choking Rescue Device Kit.  LifeVac.net admin@lifevac.net 1 516-962-2554

Equally important is our support of teachers in helping them navigate the areas of tech to find the best educational practices.

In our most recent book, 7 Mindshifts for School Leaders: Finding New Ways to Think About Old Problems, we introduce 7 Mindshifts that principals and other school leaders can use to solve problems that are constantly plaguing our schools. It's important that not every problem requires these shifts, but rather those that are important, persistent, and urgent. When a problem is IPU, we use our first mindshift, A Crisis Mindset. In this episode, Joe and T.J. explore what it really means to use a Beginner's Mindset when solving a problem. It's hard to accept, but our experience can prevent us from seeing solutions. Joe and T.J. were first introduced to this concept when they interviewed the late Richard Elmore on what it means to be a learning leader. Key Points Reinforced Throughout the Podcast The Beginner's Mindset sheds preconceived ideas and thoughts on what should be done. Our own expertise can get in the way of seeing ideas and opportunities. Look to great business examples like Sarah Blakely of Spanx who sought to solve a problem she was facing as a real estate agent. Who would have thought she would have revolutionized shapewear? The Spaghetti Tower activity says it all. Each mindshift in the book is equipped with a model to help school leaders navigate the process of analyzing a problem and finding new solutions. The Beginner's Mindset Model is designed to ignite the childlike mind needed to see new possibilities and dream new realities. We hope you enjoy this book to lead better and grow faster as school leaders. We always appreciate a like, a follow, a comment, or a share. And, if you're on Amazon, please rate it.

Joe asked about how school leaders can get started, and Dan talks about your core story--what are the three top impressions that you want your audience to know about?

When you think of physical education, or PE, or gym class - what do you remember?  Probably the physical side of it, like jump rope or pull-ups or dodgeball or kickball.  But what blew our mind in today's conversation is all of the seemingly invisible, yet intentional, ways PE class teaches us about social interactions, our own capabilities, deconstructing perfectionism, and more - and frighteningly, how so many schools in the US now don't mandate PE, as it's a class that's having to fight for its right to exist in the education system.   As we kick off the new 2022-2023 school year, listen to what we'll be missing out on in our next generation if we don't start thinking about what and how we teach our children.   What to listen for:  Why PE is important - especially when it goes beyond the measurements and into being a social laboratory How resistance shows up in physical education, and how to address it Helping children navigate the difficult or uncomfortable conversations that play out in spaces of play  The privilege Sherri feels of being a Black American woman living in Europe   About Sherri: Sherri Spelic teaches elementary physical education at an international school in Vienna, Austria.

Two Great Books that Every School Leader Must Read to Build a Culture of Growth in Their School

Great School Leaders are Avid Readers Learning and growing as a school leader through reflection, training, and experience is a professional choice. One powerful way to improve is through reading great books, which is why we feature a couple of great books each month. Our aim is to link great books to our theme for the month. This month we are focused on school leaders who want to build a culture of growth in their schools. Growth in any given area requires intentionality with time specifically dedicated to supporting personal development. For this reason, we chose two books that are must reads for school leaders who want to build environments, for teachers and other staff members, that nurture growth. Joe's Pick: The Advantage: Why Organizational Health Trumps Everything Else in Business Featured Author: Pat Lencioni In this podcast, Joe quickly identifies why The Advantage is a powerful read for growth-driven leaders. Unlike Lencioni's other books, this is not fable but rather a guide to develop an organization's health. Listen to why an organization's health is bigger than culture. Joe also identifies quick ways to determine how well an organization is functioning. As Lencioni points out in the book, there should be minimal politics and confusion, high morale and productivity, and low staff turnover, which is the purpose of Retention for a Change as well. T.J.'s Pick: Time, Talent, and Energy Featured Authors: Michael Mankins and Eric Garton T.J. lands on Time, Talent, Energy this month, knowing that if you desire to grow people, then you need to fully understand the impact of time, talent, and energy on what the author's call “organizational drag.” Not using the three wisely can lead to disastrous results. Listen to T.J. describe how these are the scarcest resources that need to be protected in schools. He also reveals how the right culture unearths the unique talents within a school and district. Additionally, companies often focus on the strategic goals, financial capital, but fully understanding how to manage your team's time, talent, and energy is just as, if not more important. Technical Tip for Leaders Who Read We close every Read This Series with a technical tip. This month's tip is to journal specifically on what you are reading about. Leaders gain results from reading when they take 5 to 10 minutes for free-writing on what the book content means to you and your leadership. As educators we tout the critical importance of having students synthesize information, and this is one way that we do it that will yield great results. Don't let the knowledge you gain go to waste. Ideas are fleeting; write them down and grow your own leadership ability exponentially. Enjoy both of these books to lead better and grow faster as school leaders.

Great School Leaders are Avid Readers Learning and growing as a school leader through reflection, training, and experience is a professional choice. One powerful way to improve is through reading great books, which is why we feature a couple each month. Our aim is to link great books to our theme for the month. This month we are focused on rethinking what accountability looks like in schools. We've heard from our subscribers that this content is being used as a leadership development curriculum. Kudos to you for investing in yourself as a school leader to grow and improve. When we think about accountability, a school leader's mind typically races to state and federal accountability--state assessments, scorecards, and different measures and metrics. This month we wanted to take a different look at accountability, one that speaks to the heart of the work within schools and that drills down into the classroom. For that reason, we chose two books that get granular with very specific examples of what schools are doing and how to guide practice for improvement. Joe's Pick: Performance Conversations: How to Use Questions to Coach Employees, Improve Productivity, and Boost Confidence Featured Author: Christopher D. Lee, Ph.D. Joe loves Performance Conversations because it is about improving performance. This is a necessary turn in education where administrators develop not only evaluation skills but also coaching skills. Having the ability to coach teachers and staff members to accelerate performance will raise the achievement in any school. A Few Key Reasons to Read Performance Conversations This book dives into the power of inquiry, coaching, and positive mindset, making a case for the value of each one and how they develop an individual. The author clearly supports the use of questioning and how we must view it as a tool--a tool used to generate incredible conversations that inform the listener. There is also a really cool Continuum of Support figure, detailing the methods of support discussed in the book--Supervisory, Coaching, Mentoring, and Sponsoring. With a focus on supporting effective cultures, this book is a must read. T.J.'s Pick: The Carrot Principle Featured Authors: Adrian Gostick & Chester Elton T.J. landed on The Carrot Principle being his book of the month because, well, he loves this book. There are some books that truly resonate with the reader and this book is one of T.J.'s all time favorites. Here's why it's so good: it's based on empirical evidence and the contents are easy to apply. Everyone can celebrate, and everyone should get better at it. With 70% of managers still skeptical about the use of praise, maybe it's not praise but rather their confidence with doing so. A Few Key Reasons to Read The Carrot Principle Let's begin with a major, must understand, takeaway for any leader: “79% of people who leave their company cite lack of appreciation as a key reason for leaving.” What? This is something we can change tomorrow. The authors describe, and this is a main point from T.J., that many leaders are afraid to use praise. The key is not to hold back and to build a culture of systemic recognition. Another terrific point made throughout the book is that the praise should be done right. A few things not to do: Don't be vague Don't be skeptical Don't be ambiguous Most importantly, the authors provide their readers with a way to bring recognition and praise front-and-center in four ways: Goal Setting Communication Trust Accountability Countless leaders work incredibly hard, but what if all of your efforts fall short because you are getting one thing wrong that is in your grasp to change and control. Enjoy both of these books to lead better and grow faster as school leaders. Let us know what you're reading by contacting us at contact@theschoolhouse302.com.

Introducing robotics to children at a young age in the same way that we enroll them in soccer or piano lessons should be a real consideration. However, the participation costs are often so prohibitive that it's out of the question for most schools and parents.On Episode 11 of Season 2, we're joined by entrepreneur and philanthropist, Jared Schrieber.

Joe's Pick: What School Could Be: Insights and Inspiration from Teachers across America Featured Author: Ted Dintersmith This is a unique book because Dintersmith visited schools across the U.S. and reported on some incredible schools doing great work. Very early on in the book, he introduces us to the key principles that emerged as he visited schools across America. He identifies them as P.E.A.K.: Purpose Essentials Agency Knowledge Each of the four represents key aspects of high level performance that can be implemented by school leaders. This is why this is a great book for accountability; it describes what is working and what may be very helpful in another school or district. Sustainability and replicability are as important as the identified practice itself. He also provides a provocative overview of how we got to where we are in regard to schooling. His brief overview and short history of state tests, rankings, and institutes of higher education are fascinating as he describes their impact on innovation in schools. Lastly, this book is filled with real stories from the field. You won't be disappointed. Get your copy of What School Could Be today. T.J.'s Pick: Practice Perfect: 42 Rules at Getting Better at Getting Better Featured Authors: Doug Lemov, Erica Woolway, & Katie Yezzi There are a few reasons why we love this book. One reason is that the journey to this book's creation started in a high poverty school, detailed in the book that many are familiar with, Teach Like A Champion. Two, this book is about getting better through practice. Programs are great, but they are only as effective as the individual using them. In our accountability approach, we have a very teacher-centric focus. A common issue in education is our lilly pad approach to change. Too often, schools jump from one initiative to the next in search of a better program that will yield greater student learning. This isn't due to leadership laziness in schools, but rather an attempt to find a solution in a short amount of time. However, true growth requires time and practice--Perfect Practice. As T.J. describes in his account, the authors detail key practices like Name It, Make It Fun, and Apply First then Reflect as key tools to improving. Practice also goes perfectly with feedback, which is an essential ingredient to improvement. Enjoy both of these books to lead better and grow faster as school leaders.
