I am ecstatic about today's conversation with my friend, Tracy Steel!! We have been friends for many years before finally meeting in 2019. This conversation was the first one we have had in years! Tracy is the author of "A Redesigned Life," which came out in 2019. She shares about her journey from battling an eating disorder and the pressure of numbers to finding true freedom in Christ. Hear about her experiences as a retired Air Force spouse, moving nine times in the first 13 years of marriage, and raising two children. She also discusses her role as the Women's Ministry Director at a church in Phoenix, her ministry work, and how God has used her story to help others. Enjoy this conversation and we both pray that is will help you and others in your life today! Bio: Tracy Steel graduated from Kansas State University with a BS in interior design and has a master's degree in biblical and theological studies from Phoenix Seminary. Moving from one type of interior design to another, she then worked in full-time ministry, serving as the Director of Female Students at Scottsdale Bible Church from 2003-2007, and most recently as the Associate Minister to Women at Scottsdale Bible Church from 2020-2021.  Currently, Tracy serves as the Women's Ministry Director at Palmcroft Church, is also the Co-Director of LIFT, and the Co-founder of My Only Aim & Every Life Ministries Director of Leader Development.Through these growing parachurch ministries, and through her involvement in her local church, Tracy delights in helping women of all ages and stages of life grow closer to God; enabling them to walk in the purposes and giftings He has given them. Tracy's husband, Chad, is a retired Air Force Lt. Colonel, and she is the proud mother of two teenagers, Jackson and Katie.

The 2024 Female Students and STEM Report reveals a striking disparity between young women's aptitudes for STEM careers and their expressed interest in these fields. This "career exposure gap" highlights the urgent need for earlier interventions in K-12 education to support and encourage female participation in STEM. As we face a future increasingly reliant on technical skills, addressing this gap is not just a matter of equity, but a crucial step in building a robust and innovative workforce for tomorrow. What can we do to support diverse interests and talents in all of our young children? Amy Miller-Weilan from YouScience joins the show.

Draw a Scientist is a test developed in 1983 to explore children's perspectives of scientists and how stereotypical views can emerge at an early age, influenced both by popular culture and how STEM subjects are taught in schools.In April, 50 images from Nature's weekly Where I Work section, a photo essay which depicts an individual researcher at work, went on display in London's Kings Cross district.The photographs were chosen to reflect the diversity of scientific careers, and in the words of senior careers editor Jack Leeming, to demonstrate that “scientists aren't all wacky lab-coated, round-goggled people from the science fiction film Back to the Future.”In this Working Scientist podcast, Julie Gould visits the exhibition with a group of 12-13 year-old female pupils from London's Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School, where she repeats the Draw a Scientist test, based on their perceptions of scientists. The children draw two pictures, one before and one after viewing the 50 photographs. Gould then asks them how their perceptions have changed, based on what they have seen.As one pupil put it after seeing the exhibition, which closes later this month: “You can be a scientist in almost any part of the world. You could be involved with flowers, with the ocean, with weather, with space. You can do anything.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Closing the STEM divide: Promoting gender equality in Ireland

Crystel Robbins Rynne, Chief Operating Officer at HR solutions provider HRLocker, outlines Ireland's journey toward gender equality in STEM and beyond. Highlighting success stories and addressing the ongoing challenges In recent years, Ireland has emerged as one of the world's leading technology hubs, with a reputation that continues to soar. Yet, if it is to achieve its aim of becoming Europe's STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) leader by 2026, Ireland, like many other parts of the world, has to improve the gender gap that sees women vastly underrepresented in STEM education and careers. According to recent research from the Department of Education, women only make up a quarter of those employed in STEM roles across Ireland. A figure that comes as no surprise considering just one in three EU STEM graduates is, as the European Commission reports, female. But it's not all doom and gloom - there are reasons to be optimistic. Female STEM role models in Ireland Women such as Abigail Ruth Freeman, Director of the Science Foundation Ireland, who has contributed to advancing scientific research and innovation in the country, and Fionola Cliffe, the Chief Operations Officer of Hooke Bio, are not just highly successful professionals, but they're also preeminent role models for young Irish women with aspirations of a career in STEM fields. Freeman, Cliffe and their peers epitomise the positive trend of increasing female participation in STEM in Ireland. This progress is not only encouraging but also inspiring, as it paves the way for more girls to follow in their footsteps. The visibility of Freeman and Cliffe, along with other Irish women in STEM, is crucial in empowering more women to pursue leadership roles in previously male-dominated industries. Another notable STEM role model, Sonya Geelon, the Chief Commercial Officer at Conferma Pay, champions the motto, 'If you see it, you can be it'. As a passionate advocate for nurturing young up-and-coming talent, Geelon embodies and endorses the progress that continues to be made and instilled in young girls and women. Ireland's low gender pay gap In addition to positive role models, we can be proud that, according to Eurostat, Ireland's gender pay gap is among the lowest in the European Union. Standing recently at 9.9 per cent, it is almost three percentage points below the regional average and has been falling since 2018. The gender pay gap doesn't represent illegal pay discrimination but is a measure of the difference between men's and women's average pay across an entire organisation. A high figure indicates a lower proportion of women in higher-paid leadership positions or more women at the lower end of the pay scale. A relatively low gender pay gap is definitely a positive step in the right direction. Whilst there is undoubtedly still a long way to go here to achieve full gender equality in the workplace, this is a reassuring sign for the future. Increasing levels of participation The rise of women and girls studying STEM subjects and entering STEM careers must also be acknowledged and celebrated. In their 2023 Survey of Female Students' Attitudes to STEM, I Wish, an Irish volunteer-led community committed to showcasing the power of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths to female secondary school students, reports a rise in the percentage of females studying a STEM discipline undergraduate programme from 29 per cent in 2014 to 36 per cent in 2022. The percentage of those studying ICTs rose from 15% to 23% over the same period. This is particularly heartening, considering the statistics cover the COVID-19 pandemic, when other industries slowed and saw less uptake. Other standout statistics include the percentage of female uptake of undergraduate courses in: Biology - 68 per cent Biochemistry - 65 per cent Food Processing - 64 per cent Environmental Sciences - 53% ICT - 51 per cent In response to the I Wish 2023 Survey, the team notes that over the past ten...

I Wish, the social enterprise inspiring girls globally to consider careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM), is welcoming almost 3,000 female students to its 10th annual Showcase today (February 8) in the RDS, Dublin. Over the past decade, I Wish has engaged with over 60,000 students, hosted close to 1,000 speakers, and partnered with over 50 industry leaders. This year's event boasts a line-up of over 50 influential speakers including former President of Ireland and current chair for elders Mary Robinson. Irish science communicator and entrepreneur Ciara Judge; VP of Mid-Market Global Business Group, EMEA Meta and Head of Meta Ireland, Anne O'Leary; global diversity and inclusion leader Furkan Karayel; aeronautical engineer Dr Norah Patten, and Irish Olympian hockey player and biomedical engineer Katie Mullan will also share their insights and experiences, igniting inspiration among the young attendees. Mrs Robinson, who will speak at a session today on climate justice and the challenges in achieving gender equality globally, outlined the importance of "seeing is believing", with female role models inspiring girls to think bigger. In the recent I Wish Survey of Female Students' Attitudes to STEM, 51% said a barrier to STEM was a lack of female role models while 66% cited poor gender equality in STEM careers. Mrs Robinson said: "I am delighted to join I Wish again this year,?marking?their 10th?anniversary. It's an honour to be part of an event that ignites the spark of possibility in the hearts of young women. As a staunch supporter of 'girl power', I witness its transformative impact every day through my work. "I recognise and applaud the profound influence that organisations like I Wish have on teenage girls, assisting them to embrace their power, and enabling them to forge paths in careers they are passionate about. Seeing is believing for young minds. Together, let us inspire and pave the way for a generation of fearless trailblazers, breaking barriers and shaping a world where every dream is within reach."?] Echoing Ms Robinson's sentiments, I Wish co-founder Caroline O'Driscoll highlighted the significance of providing access to inspiring role models, stating: "When we founded I Wish 10 years ago, our guiding ethos was to give 'Choices, Chances, Changes' to girls and ensure that they have every opportunity to take their place in the economies of tomorrow and not be left behind by broken stereotypical biases of the past. "In our annual survey, time and time again girls tell us that they want more information about STEM and report that access to female role models positively influences them. At our Showcase, over 3,000 teenage girls get the opportunity to listen to the lived journeys of some amazing trailblazers. This in turn allows them to see what a career in STEM is truly like, understand the variety of careers and pathways available and the positive impact that STEM has on our world." This year's event sees the introduction of the inaugural Podcast Hub, in association with Amy Jane Keating, founder of the Go Do You podcast, featuring insightful conversations with leading female STEM voices. These recorded podcasts will be rolled out over the coming months, further amplifying the impact of the event. Also, as part of an extended partnership, Iarnród Eireann and Bus Éireann are providing free rail and bus transport to almost 1,500 girls from 15 locations across Ireland to the event. I Wish co-founder, Gillian Keating extended her thanks to the 40 leading companies from pharmaceutical, technology, and engineering sectors taking part in the event, from speakers to interactive exhibitions. "We are fortunate in Ireland to have so many multinational and indigenous companies committed to showcasing STEM pathways to the next generation of female leaders and innovators.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. **Tai-Ex opening ** The Tai-Ex opened up 2.7-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 17,245 on turnover of $3.4-billion N-T. The market gained ground on Thursday after the U-S Federal Reserve raised rates by a quarter of percentage point - a move that had been widely expected. **Female Students in Taichung Gain Easier Access to Sanitary Products ** The Taichung City Education Bureau says female students will be getting easier access to sanitary products at schools or receive vouchers to buy them at major retail chains from August 1. According to the bureau, students will also be able get sanitary products at health center in the city's 350 high schools, junior high schools and elementary schools. While some 10,000 female students from low-income households will be given two 100 N-T vouchers per month to purchase the products. The bureau says the 102-million N-T scheme aimed at increasing access to sanitary products in the city is being funded by the Ministry of Education as part of an islandwide program. Taichung received 11.89-million N-T from the ministry to expand its existing scheme (方案) to offer free sanitary products. **UN Calls for Peace in Middle East ** The United Nations says the deterioration of the security situation in the occupied West Bank once again undermines a possible two-State solution. Security Council members on Thursday heard from the Assistant Secretary General, Khaled Khiari who said the situation is becoming untenable (難以繼續的,難維持的). The occupied West Bank is currently experiencing a period of increasing violence and several members have once again raised concern. Jody Jacobs reports from New York… **Kuwait Executes Five Prisoners ** Kuwait says it executed five prisoners including an inmate convicted over the bombing of a Shiite mosque in 2015 that killed 27 people and was claimed by the Islamic State group. A statement from Kuwait's Public Prosecution said the five inmates were hanged on Thursday. The 2015 bombing struck during midday Friday prayers inside one of Kuwait's oldest Shiite mosques. The Islamic State group views Shiites as heretics (異教者). The country conducted its last mass execution in November 2022 when it put seven inmates to death. **Vietnam Agrees to Vatican Representative and Office ** Vietnam has formally agreed to let a Vatican representative live in the country and open an office. The Holy See announced the conclusion (結論) of an agreement during a visit to the Vatican by Vietnamese President Vo Van Thuong, who met with Pope Francis. A Vatican statement said the appointment of a resident representative of the pope to the communist country would support the local Catholic community, contribute to the development of the country and help serve as a “bridge to advance relations between Vietnam and the Holy See.” The agreement Thursday still falls short of full diplomatic relations, which have been strained for decades. But the two sides have held regular talks since at least 1990 studying the renewal of ties. That was the I.C.R.T. news, Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded every day in the afternoon. Enjoy the rest of your day, I'm _____.

Bryan Kohberger, a graduate student at Washington State University and a teaching assistant in the criminal justice department, has been accused of killing four students at the University of Idaho. He was terminated from his teaching assistantship at Washington State University in December 2022, more than a month after the murders. The termination letter cites an altercation with the professor he was supporting, his failure to meet expectations as a TA, and a subsequent improvement plan as the reasons for his termination. Kohberger's conduct towards female students was also a concern reported by faculty members, including following a female student to her car. However, he was not fired due to this conduct, but rather due to his failure to meet norms of professional behavior and his poor performance as a teaching assistant. Kohberger had been studying for a PhD in criminology at WSU, and a criminology student had previously described him as difficult to work with as her TA. Kohberger's lawyer did not comment, and WSU declined to provide further information due to FERPA regulations. Want to listen to ALL of our Podcasts Ad-Free?

To celebrate my birthday, I’m re-releasing two of my favorite episodes from the “Music (ed) Matters” PD Week - the two episodes on vocal technique with adolescent singers with Mr. Vic Oakes and Dr. Lynne Gackle! I hope you enjoy these “gifts” from me to you. Thanks for listening, thanks for supporting, and thanks for being a part of this podcaster’s dream! 1. Vocal Tech with Vic Oakes Come with us as we explore aspects of the changing/expanding adolescent male singing voice through our examination of the physiology, psychology, and "phrustrations" of working with this stage of the developing singer.  Strategies for working with these singers, positively including them in the choral rehearsal, and encouraging continued growth and exploration through the "storm and stress" of the voice change will be explored, augmented with recordings of voices from a child voice through early adolescence.  This fun episode is a long one, so if you need to, feel free to break it up into two parts. The first, listening to the difference between a child’s voice and that of an almost adolescent just starting to demonstrate gaps and an expanded range. The second, which begins almost exactly at the halfway point, outlining tips for rehearsal and tools your singers can use to navigate through the uncertainty (and fun) of each day.  There is a powerpoint PDF available for you as you listen, check it out at EmmyBurch.org/podcast. 2. Vocal Tech with Dr. Lynne Gackle Adolescent Female voice expert, Dr. Lynne Gackle, walks us through the four phases of the female voice change. Not only does she provide helpful analysis and voice-placement tips, she provides examples of spoken and sung passages from women in the process. You’ll want to listen to this one all the way through as she drops absolutely GOLD along the way, sharing stories and changing lives. Something I can’t wait to start with my singers is her voice-tracking sheet. They offer our singers an opportunity for leadership, ownership, and understanding. The entire episode will offer you ideas to empower your adolescent female voices through a somewhat tricky, frustrating, and challenging time and ensure they keep on singing. There is a powerpoint PDF available for you as you listen, check it out at EmilyBurch.org/podcast. Want to learn more?

Isidora Stojanovic (Jean Nicod Institute Paris) gives a lecture (first session) at the Summer School on Mathematical Philosophy for Female Students (26 July - 1 Agusut, 2015) titled "Context-dependence and the Semantics-Pragmatics Interface". Abstract: Context-dependence is ubiquitous not only in language, but in cognition and action more generally. In the first part of the course, we shall introduce two basic tools from formal semantics (and pragmatics) that help understanding how the truth of a statement may depend on the context: on the one hand, the notion of presupposition, and on the other, possible world semantics, with its extensions and applications to modality, tense and doxastic expressions. In the second part, we shall use these tools to address a range of issues at the semantics-pragmatics interface, such as the relationship between alethic, deontic and epistemic modals, or the context-sensitivity of knowledge attributions and belief reports.

Carla Fehr (University of Waterloo) gives the evening lecture at the Summer School on Mathematical Philosophy for Female Students (26 July - 1 Agusut, 2015) titled "Prioritizing Epistemic Arguments for Justice in the Academy". Abstract: White women, and men and women who are members of some racialized groups are underrepresented in many areas of academic research. In addition to the ethical benefits of addressing this problem and improving diversity within our research communities, I have argued that there are also positive epistemic outcomes of this work. In other words, I have argued that improving diversity generally results in better research. In this paper I explore the relationship between these ethical and epistemic approaches, and conclude that significant ethical benefits arise from focusing on epistemic arguments for improving diversity in our universities.

Kevin Zollman (CMU) gives a lecture (first session) at the Summer School on Mathematical Philosophy for Female Students (26 July - 1 Agusut, 2015) titled "Introduction to Networks". Abstract: Social networks have become a central feature of the scientific study of social behavior and have been imported into philosophical discussions – like ethics, epistemology, and the philosophy of science – where social behavior is important. In ethics, scholars have asked what effect social networks might have on the evolution and maintenance of different ethical norms like fairness, cooperation, and altruism. As epistemologists have begun to take the social nature of knowledge more seriously, they too have begun to ask about how networks might influence the way knowledge is generated and transmitted. Finally, in philosophy of science scholars have asked how incorporating networks might change scientific theory, and how networks of scientists might come to learn about the world. This course will introduce students to the basics of social networks, some of the uses of social networks in philosophy, and how to understand and analyze networks for original research. Because some of the analysis of social networks requires the use of computer simulation, this course will also teach students how to use the computational tool NetLogo for analyzing networks. No prior knowledge of programing is expected.

Julia Staffel (Washington University in St. Louis) gives a lecture (first session) at the Summer School on Mathematical Philosophy for Female Students (26 July - 1 Agusut, 2015) titled "Attitudes in Epistemology: Belief vs. Credence". Abstract: This lecture stream is intended to be an introduction to some central topics in formal epistemology. Formal epistemology is a relatively recent branch of epistemology, which uses formal tools such as logic and probability theory in order to answer questions about the nature of rational belief. An important feature that distinguishes formal epistemology from traditional epistemology is not just its use of formal tools, but also its understanding of the nature of belief. Traditional epistemology tends to focus almost exclusively on what is called ‘outright belief’, where the options considered are just belief, disbelief, or suspension of judgment. By contrast, it is widely accepted among formal epistemologists that this conception of belief is too coarse-grained to capture the rich nature of our doxastic attitudes. They posit that humans also have degrees of belief, or credences, which can take any value between full certainty that something is true, and certainty that it is false. The shift in focus towards degrees of belief has generated a rich research program, parts of which integrate with issues in traditional epistemology, and parts of which are specific to the debate about degrees of belief. Important questions in the field are for example: How are degrees of belief related to outright beliefs? What constraints are there on rational degrees of belief, and how can they be defended? How can we adequately represent degrees of belief in a formal framework? How do ideal epistemological norms bear on what non-ideal agents like us ought to believe? The results of these debates are relevant for many areas of philosophy besides epistemology, such as philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and practical reasoning.

This study explored two factors, perceived sociocultural and maternal pressures relating to a thin body type, and their effect on ’126 female college students’ body image satisfaction and maladaptive eating behaviors.  Using regression analyses, these two factors were explored to determine which was the better predictor of poor body image and eating problems in women.  Results showed that higher levels of both perceived sociocultural and maternal pressures relating to a thin body type were strong independent predictors of poorer body image.  However, as for maladaptive eating behaviors, once perceived sociocultural pressures were controlled for, maternal pressures no longer significantly predicted maladaptive eating behaviors. Implications, including the role of informational and normative social influence, are discussed.
