In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, Carla Cummins is joined by her daughter Jennifer Cummins and special guests Candace Seda and Stephanie Seda for a fun and thought-provoking dive into Disney's 2006 cultural phenomenon High School Musical. With a multigenerational panel of educators, designers, and education advocates, the group explores how the film's catchy tunes, teen drama, and feel-good message intersect with real-life high school experiences. Set at the fictional East High School, High School Musical follows Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez as they challenge stereotypes, break out of their expected roles, and redefine what it means to belong. The conversation goes beyond choreography to unpack deeper themes of identity, student voice, peer pressure, and the often rigid boxes students are placed in. Carla, Jenny, Candace, and Stephanie reflect on how the film's message of “breaking free” still resonates with students today. They discuss the importance of cultivating environments where young people feel seen, safe, and empowered to pursue their full potential—whether on the court, in the lab, or on stage. Together, they celebrate the magic of student-centered learning while confronting the real challenges schools face in living that out.   Takeaways: Students are more than stereotypes. Just like Troy and Gabriella, students thrive when given the freedom to explore interests outside of their “assigned” labels. Schools should nurture the whole child—not just the athlete, the scholar, or the artist. When students try something outside of the norm, they need allies—peers, teachers, and parents—who encourage them to break free from expectations and find their voice. Culture eats curriculum for breakfast. A strong, inclusive school culture is the foundation for student growth. The environment at East High showed how cliques and unwritten rules can restrict potential. Candace reflected on how High School Musical—with its vibrant sets, energetic common spaces, and distinct zones for different student identities—influences how designers think about school environments today. The film reminds us that the physical space of a school tells a story. When designing schools, it's not just about functionality; it's about creating places where students feel inspired, seen, and connected.     About Candace Seda, NOMA, AIA, NCARB: Candace Seda is an Atlanta-born architect with almost a decade of professional experience in the K-12, higher education, civic, and medical office sectors.

Briefing: Knowledge has power and controls access to opportunity and advancement. During this time, Liz Persaud will explore and share the collective role each of us plays in promoting successful independent living beyond the everyday “typical” environments for individuals with disabilities by recognizing and adapting to diversity, inclusion, awareness, and the powerful role of Assistive Technology (AT). As a professional in the AT community with personal experiences that have structured and informed everyday living, Liz will spend this time to reflect back, look forward, and share her incredible life journey along with some valuable lessons learned. Diagnosed at the age of 9 months old with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, Liz was not expected to live beyond the age of 2. Medical advice focused on institutionalization and stated that survival would not include access to education, socialization, and employment. Using hope as a catalyst for survival, Liz has and continues to defy all medical expectations. Now at the age of 42, Liz is a college graduate, married, and recognized on an international level for her work to promote independence and disability awareness through assistive technology. She is a nationally recognized public speaker and advocates for addressing the need to build bridges and solidify the gaps between individuals living with and without disabilities. Liz currently serves as the Program and Outreach Manager for Tools for Life, Georgia's Assistive Technology Act Program, at the Center for Inclusive Design and Innovation within the College of Design at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Liz also serves on the Board of Directors at NMD United, Inc., a non-profit organization composed of adults living with neuromuscular disabilities and provides outreach and raises disability awareness to numerous groups and organizations across the globe. Her passion lies within education about generations of adults growing up and living independently and successfully with childhood neuromuscular diseases. Liz is sought-after for her influential storytelling, shedding light on the power of assistive technology and its impact on the lives of individuals living with disabilities and their support circles and by educating on self-determination and advocacy with a focus on technology and disabilities. During Liz's time with you she will shed more light on disability culture, share information about attitudinal barriers faced by people living with disabilities, along with helpful tips, strategies, and solutions on how to overcome these barriers using tools like education, understanding and moving beyond tolerance towards acceptance. Join Liz as she shares positive outcomes that can occur when thoughtful communication, inclusion and awareness are integrated into the lives of each and every one of us in a collective community. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marsh-naidoo/message

#065 –Today, on this Career Episode, we present Industrial Engineering, one of the hottest careers for the period between 2020 and 2030. Jankel and I begin our conversation by explaining what industrial engineers do and highlighting their utility in diverse industries and organizations throughout the world. As I define industrial engineering as “Project Management on Steroids,” we uncover the robust activities that industrial engineers perform on a daily basis, from using computer simulation to decide on the best way for passengers to board planes at United Airlines, to performing quality control at Hershey Food to minimize candy breakage on its way to retail stores, and to doing the job of project manager at the Walt Disney Company to develop pickup and drop-off schedules for trains and shuttle busses. The work that industrial engineers do is highly necessary and without it, elements, such as, production, efficiency, quality control, and innovation, decrease or outright cease to exist. We also go over the Industrial Engineer Program at Georgia Tech, one of the best IE programs in the country. We go over data from the most recent freshman class, courses that a student interested in industrial engineering should take in high school, areas of specialization, the 5-year path that leads to a Master's Degree in IE, and the benefits of the Co-op model used as a means to provide students with real experience. You can find the show notes and links to everything we mentioned on this episode at https://collegemetropolis.com/65. Please help us by giving us a 5-star rating and leaving us a great review. In doing so, you will ensure that more high school students and parents find us and benefit from the information we provide. Thank you!

Todd Zipper, President of Wiley Education Services, welcomes Zvi Galil, creator of the Online Master of Computer Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology's College of Computing. Todd and Zvi discuss the launch of this program in 2014, which is regarded as the first affordable, fully online MOOC-based master's degree in the United States. Zvi disputes the premises that we should be afraid of online, and that in-person teaching is superior. Topics Discussed: • The impact of the first MOOC-based degree at Georgia Tech, and how it opened-up a larger, global market • Opportunities for universities to deliver online degrees at a fraction of the cost and to a larger student population • The expansion of high-quality and low-cost MOOC-based degrees into the undergraduate realm • How success was driven through the board of trustees, critical faculty, and an investment from a corporation Guest Bio Zvi Galil is the creator of the Online Master of Computer Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology's College of Computing, who The Wall Street Journal dubbed “The man who made online college work.” Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, he earned BS and MS degrees in Applied Mathematics from Tel Aviv University, both summa cum laude. Zvi later obtained a PhD in Computer Science from Cornell University. In 1982, he joined the faculty of Columbia University, served as the chair of the Computer Science Department in 1989-1994, and became dean of The Fu Foundation School of Engineering & Applied Science in 1995-2007. In 2007, he returned to Tel Aviv University to serve as president. Zvi then took over as the third John P. Imlay Jr. Dean of Computing at Georgia Tech from July 2010 through June 2019. He has written over 200 scientific papers, edited five books, and has given more than 150 lectures in 20 countries. Zvi has served as editor in chief of two journals and as the chief computer science adviser in the United States to the Oxford University Press. Recently, he was named one of the 10 most influential computer scientists in the last decade by Academic Influence.

This week we're covering the Georgia Institute of Technology. Created as part of the 'New South' creed to fast-tract industrial education, it began as a school focused on teaching trades. Within a decade, it was changing toward the academic model. We'll talk football, traditions, campus size, Olympics and through today. https://space.gatech.edu/sites/default/files/images/histpresplan.pdf   Want to support this podcast?

Dr. Ajit Yoganathan – The Wallace H. Coulter Distinguished Faculty Chair in Biomedical Engineering & Regents' Professor at The Georgia Institute of Technology – joins Innovators to talk about his history in biomedical engineering and the background on the field as a field of higher education. Dr. Yoganathan and host Dr. Rick Skinner also conclude their conversation talking about how biomedical engineering could be a "catalyst" to solve problems like COVID-19. According to Dr. Yoganathan, his Cardiovascular Fluid Mechanics Lab at Georgia Tech "focuses on understanding complex cardiovascular problems using fundamental engineering and science. The main objective of my lab is to provide answers to life-saving clinical questions using engineering approaches.” Dr. Yoganathan earned his bachelor's degree from the University of London in 1973 and his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 1978. His lab has evaluated (directly or indirectly) all prosthetic heart valves in use in the United States since 1975. Innovators is a podcast production of Harris Search Associates. The show is produced by Grant Burkhardt.  *The views and opinions shared by the guests on Innovators do not necessarily reflect the views of the interviewee's institution or organization.*

Soaring over Utah, it's easy to imagine that you've left Earth and have stepped onto another planet.

Atlanta is a city full of possibilities, and Lisa Babb is the kind of person who not only sees them all, but encourages others to see them as well. As an educator, Lisa teaches the next generation of designers that there is room for the table for them in this industry. And as assistant director at Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA), she also helps bring design and art into the local community. Our conversation started off with a closer look at MODA and talking about how Lisa got her start as a designer and what eventually drew her to Atlanta. From there, we discussed the state of the design community here in the city, as well as how design education has changed over the years. If you're ever in Atlanta, head on down to MODA and say hi!

IFE Distinguished Visitor Lecture, recorded 9 May 2018 at QUT. Unfortunately, warfare and conflict in their many forms seem destined to blight our world for the foreseeable future. While war continues to be fundamentally a human endeavour whose character remains largely unchanged, the nature of contemporary and future conflict is undergoing significant changes. Speaking from direct and extensive experience, Major General Jeff Sengelman (retired), as a former commander of Special Operations Australia, will reflect on high-performance special forces teams and the attributes that have made them so globally successful under the most extreme conditions and circumstances. From this, he will more widely discuss how autonomous and semi-autonomous systems, and the technologies that underpin them, are likely to impact fundamentally on current cultural, military, societal, ethical and legal approaches to conflict and warfare. Ronald C. Arkin is Regents' Professor and Director of the Mobile Robot Laboratory in the College of Computing at Georgia Tech and is the Director of the Mobile Robot Laboratory. He served as STINT visiting Professor at KTH in Stockholm, Sabbatical Chair at the Sony IDL in Tokyo, member of the Robotics and AI Group at LAAS/CNRS in Toulouse, and recently completed a year's leave at QUT and CSIRO.

Ten years ago, I realized that case-based reasoning, an approach to designing computer programs that could reason based on their experiences, suggested ways of promoting productive learning in people. Based on that insight and on CBR's implied cognitive model, my research group and I have designed a project-based inquiry approach to middle school science called Learning by Design. LBD takes into account the cognitive model proposed by CBR as well as the constraints and opportunities afforded by middle-school classrooms and students. By studying the strengths and weaknesses of the approach as it has been implemented in a variety of venues in the Atlanta area, we've discovered opportunities for designing and integrating several kinds of technology appropriate not just to LBD classrooms, but to project-based inquiry classrooms more generally.

By facilitating the growth of a culture of collaboration and rigorous scientific thinking in middle school science classrooms, we've been able to promote significant learning of and engagement in scientific reasoning. I present some of what we've learned about how to promote a classroom culture and the learning that ensues from it.
