Podcasts about hacking engagement

Last summer, I got the writing bug again. There have simply been so many ideas that have emerged during my tenure as an Education instructor. In this episode, I introduce my brand new book Even More Hacking Engagement.

Listener Mike Brilla has today's recommendation!

When I was in my early 30's, I got the 7-year-itch. NO, NO, NO...not to split from the lovely Mrs. Sturtevant, far from it. I was questioning my commitment to education. I was an ambitious competitive young guy. My college peers were climbing corporate ladders. They were wearing suits to work and bringing in some serious bank. They seemed so much more adult.I've always been goal-oriented, which was fine for the first few years in teaching when I was still figuring out the job. But my early 30's I found myself wondering, Can I be satisfied doing this till my mid-50's?I've always been a person of action and so I determined it was time to take some. I left Education to become a salesperson in the private sector. I reasoned that I possessed a good skill set for sales. I was right, but guess what? I was miserable in my new role. On my hasty exit from my classroom, I totally failed to inventory the wondrous positives of being teacher. I was a popular guy in my school and I loved my students. The first 5 minutes of every class was always devoted to bonding. I would describe what was going on in my life and the students would share about their existences. I totally took this magnificent bond with my students for granted. In the private sector, no one cared what I was reading, what workout I was doing, or what I made Mrs. Sturtevant for dinner the previous night. Instead my interactions were highly transactional. After a 1-year sales gig, I hightailed it back to the classroom. It was so good to be home. It was a magnificent learning experience that I still value and it helped me become a much better and more content educator. But my early frustrations with teaching were certainly not unique. Let's face it, teaching doesn't possess many extrinsic motivators. I don't know that that is necessarily a bad thing. Merit pay has never really delivered on its mythical promises. But there are darned few career advancement opportunities. You could become an administrator, a head coach, a department head, or a guidance counselor. If you're ambitious, you must content yourself with creating the best classroom experience for your students. That's wonderful objective, but perhaps, we need some more options. And this dear listener is where my buddy Michael Brilla walks on the Hacking Engagement stage. Michael is a passionate social studies teacher who's been on this program before. He starred on Episode 105 promoting StoryMaps as a marvelous platform. I loved his energy and I utilize StoryMaps every semester, even with my college students. Michael is creative and ultra-approachable. His students just love him. So why in the world would he leave his magical classroom and assume a new role? Please stay put dear listener and learn the what, the why, and the how. Who knows you might come up with an idea to explore this new year.

I started this podcast in the summer of 2016. I just had completed my book Hacking Engagement. The podcast was meant to supplement the book. There are 50 hacks in Hacking Engagement. My objective in 2016 was to produce 50 episodes. It seemed like climbing a mountain. It was hard to fathom producing 50 episodes...and yet I did. I had so much fun that I went ahead and produced 100! This episode is a celebration of this achievement. I interview Kevin Ellinwood. Kevin Ellinwood. Kevin, like me, is completing his 33rd year in the classroom. Please enjoy this show as we reflect upon 33 glorious years amongst thousands of young people. No episode template...just listen, enjoy, and thanks so much for listening!

When I wrote Hacking Engagement, I was amazed that fifty hacks flowed out of my fingertips and compressed the keys of my laptop. Fifty seemed like a marathon, however, those hacks systematically materialized. When I typed the last period of the last sentence, I thought, Wow. that was a lot of hacks. I need a break. But here I am again...back with 50 more engagement hacks. Hacking Engagement Again is just like its predecessor Hacking Engagement: Both are short, containing a little over 30,000 words apiece. Both are comprised of fifty hacks that are each about 600 words in length. Neither is linear. Instead, they’re like cookbooks; you scan the table of contents and find what you need to make tomorrow’s lesson delicious.

James Alan Sturtevant calls student engagement the "whole ballgame", and who would know this better than the 32-year veteran teacher, rapidly becoming known around the education world as the student engagement guru.While most teachers are racing for the door when they've been in education for 30 years, Sturtevant, whom Hack Learning nicknamed Jamstur (learn why in the podcast episode above), calls teaching a privilege and continues to raise the bar for all education stakeholders when it comes to engaging students and making teaching and learning fun.Sturtevant explains the 3 keys to student engagement, which underpin all 50 of his tips and tools in his new book, Hacking Engagement. http://hackingengagement.comLearn more on Episode 64 at http://hacklearningpodcast.com.

31 years in the teaching profession can bring many life lessons, and joy. Episode 2 of The Teacher Tunnel Podcast brings us James Sturtevant. James lives in Ohio as a husband, father, teacher, blogger, podcaster, and author of "You've Gotta Connect," and "Hacking Engagement." In this episode James discusses: *Why he teaches *Being an author and podcaster *Frustrations and Failures *Goals and Habits *His advice for teachers This episode is a fun conversation with an enthusiastic teacher/leader.

I have to confess, I love it when I’m supplied a template. My editor imposed a template on me for Hacking Engagement. I'd have been lost without it. K-12 education seems a lot like a huge rigid template. In fact, schools are darned similar to standardized mass production facilities. And therein lies the problem. While templates provide direction and form, they’re incredibly restrictive.Brian Sztabnik believes that creativity, student discovery, and self-directed learning can be stifled by over-reliance on templates. He urges teachers to take a courageous step and remove the training wheels.

Mark Barnes is familiar to a lot of listeners. He's the founder of the and guiding force behind the increasingly popular and influential Hack Learning brand. But what you might not realize, is that Mark's academic formative years were purely Dickensian. Mark attended the Cleveland Public Schools at a time when the district had a reputation as one of the nation's worst! Mark jokes that he first learned to "Hack Learning" when he ditched school some 50 times his senior year. He often traveled to school with an intense feeling of trepidation.From this unlikely, but highly relevant background, Mark has emerged as an international voice for rethinking everything about how kids are taught. Listen to this episode where he talks about his formative years, he elaborates on his successes and failures as a teacher, his launching of the wildly successful Hack Learning platform, and his decision to approach little ole me about writing Hacking Engagement: 50 Tips & Tools To Engage Teachers and Learners Daily, which will be available Septemberish!

Author James Sturtevant and I talk Hack Learning and student engagement.

This podcast was inspired by my book “Hacking Engagement…”50 Tips and Tools to Engage Teachers and Learners Daily”, which will be available in the late summer of 2016. In this episode, I’ll describe a typical listener who would enjoy and benefit from this program, I’ll provide the episode template, and I’ll introduce myself.

Teacher and student engagement expert Jim Sturtevant joins Mark Barnes in a discussion about the concept of the avatar -- no, not the movie. Sturtevant, author of You've Gotta Connect and Hacking Engagement, explains the power of the avatar for engaging kids and helping teachers and parents learn all they can about their most important target audience. Sturtevant details how he gets kids to open up about themselves with a simple online survey and then uses this information to discover the student avatar and help kids expand this metacognitive process outside of the classroom, into the real world. This is How to Find Your Avatar.
