The traditional four-year college experience isn't for everyone. In fact, many students who pursue technical careers have an engineering mindset and are interested in solving problems. Margie Fritch, the Dean of Career Technical and Extended Education at Palomar College, explains how students can earn a certificate for a technical career in as little as one semester to two years. Careers such as Plumbers, Electricians, HVAC, EMT, Paramedic, Auto Technology, Fabrication, Public Safety, and more can be explored for free with the Palomar Promise. Many of these careers offer lucrative pay in demanding fields.

Some get started for the honey - others for the pollination potential. Home beekeepers have a number of reasons for starting the hobby, but as they grow into full-fledged apiarists, they may find their interests change and deepen. Home beekeepers learn about the lives of their hives, the meditative experience of watching their bees at work and how they can keep their hives thriving. Beekeepers Dick LaForge and Jeannine Kaprielian are two of the four beekleepers who teach the Practical Beekeeping and Advanced Practical Beekeeping classes through Humboldt State University's College of Extended Education and Global Engagement. Kaprielian and LaForge discussed the classes and the experience of learning to be a beekeeper on the KHSU Magazine with host David Reed. The beginning class series begins February 11th. The advanced classes begin February 17th. The class fee is $160 for either series. Information is at the HSU Extended Ed website .

In this second part of a two-part podcast, Vicki Brannock, senior director of programing for Brandman University School of Extended Education, talks with Dr. Kimberly Greene, associate professor in the Brandman School of Education, about the paper Brannock asked Greene to write about teaching the 21st century learner.

Transcript Welcome back Brandman Speaks and the discussion between Vicki Brannock of the School of Extended Education and Kimberly Greene from the School of Education. This is the second of a two-part podcast looking at 21st century learners. We'll pick up with a discussion about deep learning and project-based education. Vicki Brannock: [00:00:25] What is deep learning? I know that I have an idea about what that what that would look like. And it's, I believe that we've been teaching to tests and we've been doing a lot of other things in the schools, and because that was that was the directive and so it wasn't that anyone was doing anything wrong it's that's what they were that was the marching orders. But now we're getting down to, we're hearing things about deep learning and Common Core as a tool and some other types of things. Could you tell me is that deep learning? What is deep learning? Kimberly Greene: [00:00:55] Deep learning is taking the idea of metacognitive skills and really putting that into practice for the individual. Now when I say metacognitive, what I'm talking about is understanding how to learn. It's being aware, if you want to pull in some pop culture terminology, it's mindfulness in the learning process. And for a very long time, again it tended to be kind of pat pat pat on the head, oh hippie dippy, isn't that lovely. But what we're finding, again thanks to neuroscience as well as educational research, is that when an individual is aware that learning is the focus, not just memorizing my vocabulary words but what is it that I can do to really make these words have meaning for me, and I can use them outside of the environment where I've learned them, and I can apply them in creative ways to do different kinds of communication -- that awareness adds a layer of complexity for the individual that not only gives them a stronger neurological pathway structure of whatever that concept is but it empowers them to then build other bridges of understanding, where that learning is now tied to multiple ways of expression and multiple actions and multiple other scaffolds. So it's more translatable and transferable into real world action without having to be conscious about it. A beautiful way of kind of helping people get a sense of this is, I ask my students to clasp their hands and then interweave their fingers. And look at your thumbs which thumb is on top? All right, be aware of that. Now open your hands, clasp them again, and purposefully put the other thumb on top. It sounds so silly. But it feels so weird because you're so aware of it. When you initially are thinking about trying to build a new habit or do something different, you tend to be soon so aware of it that it doesn't feel right. It doesn't feel normal and you're self-conscious about applying it or trying it out in the real world. Whereas with deep learning, because it is not just the individual skill or the individual piece of content that you're working on but you recognize it's all part of your learning in your growth process, you're not so uncomfortable by that awareness. You know that awareness. It's a good thing. That means you're stretching yourself,

Transcript Welcome to Brandman Speaks. In this two part podcast from Brandman University, Vicki Brannock, senior director of programs for the School of Extended Education talks with Associate Professor Kimberly Greene from the School of Education about the 21st century learner. There's a lot to say about a topic that touches on everything from Common Core to how we learn, so we've divided the podcast into two segments. Vicki Brannock: [00:00:28] So Dr. Greene it's really good to see you again. I think the last time we met was back in the fall when we were talking in a faculty meeting. And I was wondering about any research that been done on 21st century learning. And you had said that there was a lot of studies done but there wasn't much independent research. And so I ask if you undertake this research task and here we are today. So tell me a little bit about what happened between then and now. Kimberly Greene: [00:00:59] Well, when we first started talking and you asked me the question all I kept thinking about were little individual piecemeal studies. And that's when I came to the realization that there really wasn't a big umbrella study -- at least not a recent one that I was aware of -- that would enable me to give you a straight answer. There really was this recognition of somebody needs to put the time and effort into looking at this from a bigger picture so that we can have a more informed discussion about making decisions. We didn't even know what questions to ask back when we first started this conversation. Brannock: [00:01:46] And it's my understanding that you also have someone who coauthored this with you. Greene: [00:01:50] Yes. Dr. William Hale. Brannock: [00:01:52] Well I'm sure as you guys started that there was a lot that you could have said about this topic. Could you talk a little bit about that? Like what did you discover? How do you define 21st century learner? Greene: [00:02:03] That's a great place to start because it's one of those terms that gets bandied about so much but everybody tends to have a different vision in their mind what it means. Basically after looking at ideas and definitions and concepts from tons of groups, and I do mean tons because there's so much out there, it really boiled down to active critical thinking. Which if you look at what so much of what 19th and 20th century learning was, it really wasn't focused on that active critical thinking, It was more about gathering knowledge that existed and being able to replicate or reproduce it. Active critical thinking, 21st century learning, is based upon verbs. It's being able to use knowledge to do things to create new understandings to be able to solve problems in a creative fashion. So the easiest way to boil this down is to think about 20th century learning is all about nouns. It's about a canon of knowledge to be memorized. Twenty-first century learning is about engagement, in doing things with all of that information. It's about the verbs. Brannock: [00:03:41] And it's I think that's very ... correlates very well to how we're how we're tasked to work in the workplace nowadays.

Dr. Sheila Lakshmi Steinberg helped launch the Brandman Speaks podcast series as a pilot project this spring. The Communications Department will begin a regular series of podcasts this fall, but we couldn’t resist turning the tables on Steinberg first. As an environmental sociologist and a professor in the School of Arts and Science, Steinberg has long had an interest in climate change and its effect on humans. When she learned that His Holiness the Dalai Lama was celebrating his 80th birthday in Orange County and joining a panel discussion on climate change as part of the Global Compassion Summit held at UC Irvine, she made arrangements to attend and offered to share her observations. So instead of Steinberg asking the questions, we asked them. You can listen to the podcast here or download it from iTunes. Beginning this fall, we want many more Brandman University faculty members, including adjunct faculty members and those who teach through Extended Education, to join us at the podcast microphones to talk about their areas of expertise. If you’re interested in being part of Brandman Speaks, please fill out the interest form.  You can also subscribe to podcasts via iTunes if you just want to listen.
