Send me a message.Formative assessment in Design and Technology requires structured peer feedback approaches to be effective. Research shows a significant gap in assessing technological knowledge, with most studies focusing on design knowledge instead.• Design crits from higher education can be adapted for classroom use through peer feedback• Research from the Netherlands identifies convergent feedback (clarifying ideas) and divergent feedback (promoting creative responses)• Teachers must model feedback techniques and provide clear criteria for students• Effective sentence starters include "I notice your design solves the problem by..." and "Have you considered how your design might work if..."• Using exemplars (WAGOLL) can limit creativity if not implemented carefully• Structured peer feedback reduces teacher workload while ensuring all students receive input• Andrew Halliwell is conducting new research on formative feedback to be presented in July 2025Resources and References from Episode 3: Beyond the Design Crit: How Students Learn Through Giving and Receiving FeedbackResearch from the Netherlands on peer feedback in D&T educationResearch focused on effective convergent and divergent feedback techniquesResearch addressing how pupils struggle with receiving and giving useful feedbackNuffield Key Stage 3 materials with sentence structures for convergent and divergent questionsAvailable on the D&T for D&T websiteChapter by Alice Shutt in the "Debates in Design and Technology" book about the Netherlands research Acknowledgement:Some of the supplementary content for this podcast episode was crafted with the assistance of Claude, an AI language model developed by Anthropic.

“You'll be divorced, alone, and flaccid…” Let's go back a few years, back to a time when we were young and impressionable and just starting out on our respective metal odysseys as fans and purveyors of all things metal, including (but not limited to) the hard rock of our childhood years in the late 70's to the plethora of NWOBHM, thrash, and other classic metal bands we discovered during our teen years in the late 80's and early 90's.  Back to a time when wearing a newly purchased tour shirt from a show the night before to school the next day was a sacred badge of honor, a time when local bands gave out flyers for shows that included “treasure map” style instructions for locating the venue, and a time when we each had our own personal attaché case containing the cassettes we'd recently procured (or otherwise came into possession of) on our unquenchable thirst and unending quest for anything and everything metal.  Imagine what “Miss Piggy with laryngitis” might sound like and remember to never do people dirty, because just like Pepperidge Farms, karma remembers. Get ready for a “crombination” of “skythes…or scythes”, discover some of the most absurdly talented drummers and bassists in the world today, and prepare to behold one of, if not the best, thrash bands from the local scene back in the day when you JOIN US as we travel back in time to THE METAL DAYS OF YORE: OUR FORMATIVE METAL YEARS.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast   Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast Show Notes: (00:01): “He's 70…and he's in great shape.” / #DLR / “He started getting a salary and not royalties…”/ MichaelAnthony #⁠VanHalen⁠ / #RussellsReflectionsDavidLeeRothEdition / “Apparently he's got a #teenieweenie …”/ “There it is…right there…”/ “I think he's fine…”/ #networth / “He was a 20% member, manager Noel Monk being the 5th…” / ***WARNING: #listenerdiscretionisadvised *** / “Once we hit 6 years, we need to do something…maybe we should do our own version of it…”/ “That makes me 100% flaccid…”/ ***WELCOME BACK TO THE METAL NERDERY PODCAST FROM DEEP WITHIN THE BUNKERPOON!!!*** / “Sounds too much like #MissPiggy with laryngitis…”  (09:40): “I feel like my whole routine is shot…I talked about it too much…”/ “You mean the front parking or the rear parking?” / “We may be ordering a pizza halfway through this…”/ “You're gonna be hammered later…”/ “I started to mention it on the #Patreon…”/ “You can't enjoy ANYTHING anymore because EVERYTHING is stupid…”/ #CharlesBerthoud / “I recognize that name…”/ #bassvirtuoso / FADE TO BLACK #fretlessbass / “That's next level…”   (18:00): “Let's talk about the #Patreons first…”/ #PatreonShoutOut / ***JOIN US ON THE PATREON AT ⁠patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast⁠ *** / “Hail TO all…he's got a case of the Russes today…”/ ***JOIN US on #Instagram and #YouTube and #Facebook and #TikTok or EMAIL US at ⁠metalnerdery@gmail.com⁠ or VOICEMAIL US AT 980-666-8182!!!*** / #GalacticEmpire / THE IMPERIAL MARCH / “A #crombination of #KISS and #⁠Slipknot⁠ #KISSKnot …” / “That's what this show is about…it's about learning.”/ “Haven't heard from Milla (Milley) or Geeoff…”/ “It's just on the edge of being annoying as fuck…or impossible to stand…”/ #sixyearanniversary #metalnerderypodcast / “First of all, we got an email from a girl…”/ #Leafblower #wellplayyourshittah / “Burn Cruise?

If I give my students an exit slip to check their grasp of a particular skill, and a third of them don't do well, just moving forward with my original teaching plan is a missed opportunity. Ideally, my next steps should involve some kind of targeted response. Let's talk about what that looks like. ------------------- Thanks to Studyo for sponsoring this tip.

Unlimited situations don't create creativity as much as limitations do." - Bob Thurnhoffer (18:05) “(Training in a Hallway) I can do acceleration, I could do plyometrics. I can get very strong in the weight room. And try to learn how to be truly great at these things that I can do. Because I knew that the things I could do I had to be better than everyone else at” - Bob Thurnhoffer (29:38) “I still work general training a very, very large degree. Probably more than most coaches even. Yeah, I remember Brooke, the pole vault coach at Louisville. She said to me at the start of the year how she really liked how much general strength I do. She's like, yeah, I don't know. Coaches never do that anymore” - Bob Thurnhoffer (41:00) “Interestingly enough, I actually, at New Mexico I almost entirely went to Monday, Tuesday neural, Wednesday, Thursday general, Friday neural. The whole two years I was there for everyone. And it worked great” - Bob Thurnhoffer (47:30) “I almost always finish a neural lift with med ball throws; to restore proprioception after heavy lifting” - Bob Thurnhoffer (49:13) "I think like long jump you gotta, it's all about displacement, smoothness, being a passenger, letting the natural inherent reactivity that you've developed in training and it's inherent in the human body do the jumping for you." - Bob Thurnhoffer (1:02:01) "It's the quick ground contact time with the vertical displacement. That's what I'm looking for." - Bob Thurnhoffer About Bob Thurnhoffer ​Bob Thurnhoffer is an accomplished track and field coach specializing in jumps, currently serving as the Assistant Coach for Jumps at the University of Louisville.

Helen speaks with coach Adam Smith about the stories we tell ourselves and how they shape everything.From negative self-talk to the pressure to prove ourselves, Adam shares how he broke free from old patterns and now helps others do the same.Together, they explore how changing your inner dialogue can shift your whole life. Starting with just a few simple words.Here are the highlights:00:00 Introduction02:32 Reframing anxiety: the language we use shapes our reality09:48 Formative voices become our inner critic13:55 Why high achievers often struggle with low self-esteem18:08 Social media validation and the craving to be seen23:27 Shame vs guilt: the danger of attaching identity to actions27:09 Interrupting the spiral: the power of a more helpful thought32:13 Emotional regulation starts with letting yourself feel36:18 The healthiest choice might not be what you think it is42:26 “Have you had enough pain yet?” The question that sparks changeAbout Adam Smith:From depressed and suicidal to the happiest and fittest he's ever been, Adam's self-development journey hasn't been easy but it has been worth it. Today, he is a qualified in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and a certified Time Line Therapist®.He has coached hundreds of high performers, CEOs, celebrities, and athletes including Team GB, using NLP to rewire their thoughts and behaviours so they can destroy limiting beliefs and engineer the change needed to excel.He was working in hospitality, drinking in excess, and hoping to find happiness at the bottom of a bottle - of course, he did not.After a failed relationship, losing a job, and drinking too much, he hit rock bottom and wanted to end his life. After only what I can call a blessing, he was interrupted by a call from my Mum, and everything changed.He transformed his mental and physical health by starting small and gaining momentum.

Muhammad Ali is widely recognized as one of the greatest athletes of all-time and one of the most important figures of the 20th century. In addition to his long and celebrated career as a boxer and three-time heavyweight champion of the world, Ali changed the conversation about race, religion, and politics in America. Ali's refusal to be inducted into the U.S. military during the Vietnam War on religious grounds—a profound act of resistance that resulted not only in Ali's three-plus-year exile from professional boxing, but also a criminal conviction and five year-prison sentence that Ali almost had to serve until it was reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court—represented a pivotal moment of the 1960s. Ali has been the subject of numerous books and documentary films, including the Oscar-winning When We Were Kings (1996) and The Trials of Muhammad Ali (2013). He is also the subject of the 2001 Hollywood biopic, Ali (co-written and directed by Michael Mann and starring Will Smith as Ali), which focuses on the ten-year period from Ali's capture of the heavyweight crown from Sonny Liston in 1964 to Ali's fight against George Foreman in Zaire in 1974 (the famed “Rumble in the Jungle”). Once a sharply polarizing figure, Ali became one of the most celebrated and eulogized individuals in America, whose rich, if not incomparable, legacy reverberates around the world today.  Timestamps:0:00    Introduction2:22      Formative experiences5:00     From Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali10:26    Opposition to the Vietnam draft13:16     Ali's loss of his prime years15:42     The broader significance of Ali's opposition to induction 18:08    Ali's legal challenges and the U.S. Supreme Court22:48:   The Fight of the Century24:06    From a symbol of resistance to reconciliation27:50     Becoming a global icon: The Rumble in the Jungle35:30    Ali and Howard Cosell 36:57    Ali and Malcolm X41:08    Some problems of the Ali biopic44:12     Ali's post-boxing career47:53    Sports and resistance: Ali's legacy      Further reading:Hauser, Thomas, Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times (1991)Kindred, Dave, Sound and Fury: Two Powerful Lives, One Fateful Friendship (2006)Lederman, Marty, “The story of Cassius Clay v.

Undeclared: A Philosophy of Formative Higher Education (MIT Press, 2024) is an imaginative tour of the contemporary university as it could be: a place to discover self-knowledge, meaning, and purpose. What if college were not just a means of acquiring credentials, but a place to pursue our formation as whole persons striving to lead lives of meaning and purpose? In Undeclared, Chris Higgins confronts the contemporary university in a bid to reclaim a formative mission for higher education. In a series of searching essays and pointed interludes, Higgins challenges us to acknowledge how far our practices have drifted from our ideals, asking: What would it look like to build a college from the ground up to support self-discovery and personal integration? What does it mean to be a public university, and are there any left? How can the humanities help the job-ified university begin to take vocation seriously? Cutting through the underbrush of received ideas, Higgins follows the insight where it leads, clearing a path from the corporate multiversity to the renaissance in higher education that was Black Mountain College and back again. Along the way, we tour a campus bent on becoming a shopping mall, accompany John Dewey through a midlife crisis, and witness the first "happening.” Through diverse and grounded philosophical engagements, Undeclared assembles the resources to expand the contemporary educational imagination. Chris Higgins is Associate Professor and Chair in the Department of Formative Education in Boston College's Lynch School of Education and Human Development, where he directs the Transformative Educational Studies program. He is the author of The Good Life of Teaching. The book is available Open Access here. Learn more about your ad choices.

Undeclared: A Philosophy of Formative Higher Education (MIT Press, 2024) is an imaginative tour of the contemporary university as it could be: a place to discover self-knowledge, meaning, and purpose. What if college were not just a means of acquiring credentials, but a place to pursue our formation as whole persons striving to lead lives of meaning and purpose? In Undeclared, Chris Higgins confronts the contemporary university in a bid to reclaim a formative mission for higher education. In a series of searching essays and pointed interludes, Higgins challenges us to acknowledge how far our practices have drifted from our ideals, asking: What would it look like to build a college from the ground up to support self-discovery and personal integration? What does it mean to be a public university, and are there any left? How can the humanities help the job-ified university begin to take vocation seriously? Cutting through the underbrush of received ideas, Higgins follows the insight where it leads, clearing a path from the corporate multiversity to the renaissance in higher education that was Black Mountain College and back again.

In this deeply moving episode, Uri Schneider reunites with former client Naomi Zauderer, now a clinical social worker in Tel Aviv. Naomi shares her journey from being a confident, outgoing child to experiencing the "rock bottom" of her stuttering in middle school, and ultimately transforming into a therapist who helps others process and heal. Naomi reveals how drawing cartoons externalized her overwhelming experiences, making them tangible and even humorous. She recalls the pivotal moment of her bat mitzvah speech and how finding her father's supportive gaze gave her the courage to continue despite her stutter. Their conversation highlights the powerful "Daddy Naomi Radio" ritual that created a special bonding space between father and daughter. The turning point came in ninth grade when Naomi discovered that by shifting focus away from stuttering and celebrating moments of fluency, she experienced dramatic improvement. This revelation about the power of perspective became the foundation for her professional path in therapy. This episode offers profound insights for anyone facing challenges: look beyond the problem to see solutions, recognize that you are more than your struggles, and understand that adversity can unlock special knowledge that becomes your greatest asset. For parents and educators, Naomi emphasizes the importance of focusing on what children say rather than how they say it, and protecting the innate self-confidence children are born with A must-listen for anyone interested in personal transformation, the psychology of communication, and the journey from getting help to giving help.   TIMESTAMPS 00:00:00 - Introduction of Naomi Zauderer and her current role 00:01:54 - Naomi describes her "rock bottom" with stuttering in middle school 00:03:23 - Naomi's personality as a young child before stuttering became an issue 00:05:16 - Formative experiences in school and avoidance strategies 00:08:00 - The stuttering iceberg metaphor explained 00:10:00 - How drawing cartoons helped externalize overwhelming experiences 00:15:26 - Naomi's bat mitzvah speech experience and intense anxiety 00:20:00 - Finding Uri in the audience and gaining courage to continue 00:23:13 - The "Daddy Naomi Radio" show as a bonding experience 00:27:12 - The turning point in ninth grade with social and academic pressures 00:28:05 - Stuttering as a scapegoat for other challenges 00:30:08 - How focusing less on stuttering led to more fluency 00:40:11 - The pizza analogy: reducing the proportion of stuttering in identity 00:42:00 - Patch Adams story: looking beyond the problem to see solutions 00:47:48 - The "secret knowledge" gained through adversity 00:50:21 - Naomi's journey to becoming a therapist 00:51:53 - Addressing underlying shame and beliefs beyond fluency 00:54:34 - What Naomi would tell her younger self: "You're so much more than your stuttering" 00:55:57 - Advice for parents, teachers, and employers: focus on content, not delivery 00:57:10 - Closing reflections on protecting children's innate self-confidence   ABOUT THE HOST Uri Schneider, M.A. CCC -SLP is co-founder and leader at Schneider Speech; creator and host of Transcending Stuttering; and faculty at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine.   SEE ALL SHOW NOTES http://www.transcendingx.com/podcast   LEARN MORE Visit http://www.transcendingx.com or http://www.schneiderspeech.com

Philip Andelman's inspired take on the language and rhythm of music videos has impacted the medium in countless ways. The results are evident in his collaborations with contemporary artists, including Usher, Melissa Etheridge, Ludacris, Maxwell, d4vd, James Bay and Taylor Swift. Formative experiences with Annie Leibowitz launched his entry-point into photography. After NYU, continued experiential education under the guidance of Joseph Kahn, the legend, exposed Philip to the world of music videos with an ethos to help keep head above water. He worked as a second unit director on some of the most pivotal music videos ever made, including Moby's Southside and U2's Elevation. Soon after came the opportunity to step into the director's chair for the first of six video collaborations with Lenny Kravitz, beginning with 2004's Where Are We Runnin - a hedonistic exploration of faith. Some of the notable videos in Philip's catalogue include John Mayer's Waiting on the World to Change; Duck Sauce's It's You; Fiona Apple and Andrew Bird's Left Handed Kisses; Miriam, by Norah Jones; and Beyonce's Halo, featuring Michael Ealy. In our conversation, we discussed the origins of his journey and upbringing in France and New York; the grant he received from Martin Scorsese; the artistry in working with Maxwell; showing Jay-Z what he thought was an unfinished video; and a fateful Samsung commercial he directed. We also discussed his degree of versatility, and its effect on transcending genre.Opening Credits: Anitek - Tab & Anitek - Mina I CC BY-NC-ND 3.0; Genx Beats - Lofi Beats - 01 Always (Lofi Mix) I CC BY 3.0.

Kathleen Hall Jamieson has an enlightenment faith in “eloquentia perfecta” – faith in reason, faith in facts, faith in public debate and civil discourse. Sometimes – and especially these days – that faith might feel in short supply. But that faith took Jamieson from Marquette University, class of 1967, to the heights of political communication scholarship – authoring a library shelf of pioneering books, achieving a CV's worth of distinguished career awards, and serving as both dean and public policy center director at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School for Communication. In episode 14 of Formative, we talk about presidential communication styles from Reagan's televisual charm to Trump's norm-shattering volume; the epistemological peril in discrediting expertise; and how rhetoric, at its best, can open up the humanity of an audience.

Send us a textDavid Tilmon has lived in Colorado his entire life. Growing up, his parents encouraged him and his siblings to try something musical. He remembers first trying piano, but taking lessons and practicing, he never connected with the instrument. His parents still encouraged him to pick an instrument, so he decided to try playing a guitar in their house that hadn't been played for a while. He started lessons with an instructor who exposed him to various kinds of music, encouraging his interests and guiding him through styles he hadn't known about before.Tilmon remembers a turning point for him being the first time he heard the song “Classical Gas.” When the song, an instrumental piece written and originally performed by Mason Williams, played on the radio, he realized that the guitar could still be a powerful instrument by itself. From there, he shifted into fingerstyle playing and focused on instrumental music. Currently based in Berthoud, his instrumental stylings blend folk, classical, jazz, Americana, and even rock influences. He's worked instrumental interpretations of acts such as The Beatles, Queen, and Talking Heads into his shows, taken inspiration from guitarists such as Mark Knopfler and Chet Atkins, and written original instrumental compositions, releasing his debut album Formative in 2021.

Jia Sung is a Singaporean Chinese artist and educator whose practice spans painting, artist books, textiles, printmaking, writing, and translation. Drawing on motifs from Chinese mythology and Buddhist iconography, Sung uses the familiar visual language of folklore to examine and subvert conventional archetypes of femininity, queerness and otherness. Her recent work explores threads of ecofeminism, ethnoecology, the ecological capacities of the body, invasive species as family, and the potentials of collective and constant human transformation through interspecies dynamics. Her approach draws from that of the Chinese zhiguai tradition, that genre of ‘strange tales' cannot be translated directly through the lens of horror. The supernatural, the monstrous, the spiritual, seep into the tidy confines of ordinary existence, often humorous, arbitrary, smearing at the boundaries of our reality and then slinking away just as rapidly. Here is shapeshifter, here is trickster, things that inhabit liminal space and refuse to be held in place or form; the profane invades the interior, wilderness enters the domestic space, phenomena defy causation and morality, creature refutes taxonomy.
