Podcasts about HRP

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Mohawk Valley Brownfields Developer Summit.Sumeet Gupta is an upstate native with a storied career that has taken him around the world. He's returned to the valley to pursue the promise he sees in this region. HRP's been a big part of the summit for several years now, and we figured that a developer like Sumeet is the perfect guest to talk to about the value of the summit, not only for developers but for every community that's impacted by brownfields.As listeners know, 3:12 is divided into a work hard and a play hard segment. We spoke with Sumeet for our work hard segment and for play hard I sat down with HRP's John Gorman. John is Buffalo, NY based so our paths don't usually cross unless we're both at the summit. Since we're both movie fans, I used the opportunity to talk with John about what he's been watching lately. You can listen to that segment or watch the video version on HRP's YouTube channel.

Welcome back to part 2 of our 'Science of Prayer' series! Back in April we discussed prayer with Aiden the VVitch, with a focus on the use of prayer in a variety of spiritual and occult settings. In this episode, the hosts tackle the science behind prayer, investigating the mechanisms behind how prayer affects our brains as well as the controversial fields of faith healing and whether prayer can benefit our health.

Join hosts Tom Simmons and Matthew Wallace, joined by HRP's EHS&S Practice Leader, Jackie Baxley, as we break down the new deadline for PFAS TSCA reporting.EPA announced an interim final rule which extended the dates of the reporting period for data submissions for the TSCA PFAS reporting rule. Submissions are now due by October 13, 2026, for most manufacturers. Small businesses reporting data solely on importing PFAS contained in articles have until April 13, 2027, to submit reports. This rule provides much needed time for the regulated community to assess its manufacturing (including import) from 2011 to 2022 relative to PFAS.  Prior to this rule being published, the reporting period was set to open this July with reports due January 11, 2026. For more information on this rule, refer to HRP's webinar presented February 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNalxzfPxog  Listen to learn more and subscribe to The Pulse for all the details.

With the help of Teacher-Powered Schools, Socol-Moran Partners, Stimpunks, and What School Could Be, we've completed the lineup for our 4th annual virtual Conference to Restore Humanity for July 21-23, focused this year on the Quest for Connection. Tickets are just $50 and you can find out more info at humanrestorationproject.org/conferenceWe're excited to have members of the team from Story Xperiential with us for today's episode, which was recorded way back in 2024. Developed by veterans from Pixar and Khan Academy, Story Xperiential brings the art of professional storytelling into the classroom, giving students the tools to craft and share their own stories using the same creative process as major studios.The program is structured to fit into school schedules, offering a two-part curriculum: Storytelling Essentials, where students develop a story outline into a story reel, and Mastering Storytelling, where they expand their work into a full narrative. Through self-paced lessons, hands-on projects, and a moderated peer feedback system, students not only learn the technical aspects of storytelling but also gain confidence in their creative abilities.One unique aspect of Story Xperiential is how it can be integrated into every subject area, aligning with interdisciplinary content standards -- bringing together social studies and ELA, for example, or STEM and fine arts -- while also fostering skills like collaboration, critical thinking, and visual communication. In this episode, we'll explore how Story Xperiential is being implemented in schools, hear about the impact it's having on students, and discuss how storytelling can be a powerful tool for learning and self-expression.You're gonna be hearing a few voices in this conversation. HRP director Chris McNutt is hosting this one, who you're probably used to hearing on this show, and he'll be talking to a few people on the StoryX team:Dennis Henderson VP of Education and StrategyChief Technical Officer, Tony DeRoseAnd Chief Learning Officer, Brit CruiseYou can learn more and sign your students up at https://www.storyxperiential.com/ Hosted on Acast.

If you go back through the HRP podcast archives, and I encourage you to do just that, you'll see that we've covered just about every topic imaginable in the world of education, with some that keep returning again and again. One area you'll probably notice a regrettable gap is in early childhood education, PreK-early elementary. One reason is that it's just out of the experience of the two high school social studies teachers who started the podcast, and another is that foundationally, at least for the classrooms I've visited since, PreK-early elementary tends to get a lot more right about developmentally appropriate instruction and schooling than the middle and high school grades that follow. That's a large part of why I reached out to my guest today to help unpack the ideas that make early childhood education such a powerful and important part of a child's life.Heidi Echternacht is co-founder of Kinderchat, a weekly professional conversation, resource library, and online network for early childhood advocates and educators. Created and led by teachers, Kinderchat has hosted global discussions between and among professional educators and in-service teachers for over ten years.

Certains tentent de l'éviter ou de le restreindre, alors qu'il est un élément essentiel et incontournable du jeu de rôle. En réalité, pour nous, il ne s'agit pas d'esquiver le HRP (le Hors-RolePlay), mais plutôt de l'intégrer et de l'utiliser à bon escient pour enrichir et améliorer nos parties. Le HRP peut aider à faire davantage progresser le récit, à éviter les moments qui trainent en longueur, à dynamiser les scènes, à améliorer le roleplay, à réduire les risques de rater une session, et bien plus encore. Dans cette série de podcasts en trois parties, nous vous invitons à découvrir, redécouvrir ou vous rappeler toute l'importance du HRP dans nos soirées de JDR. Bonne écoute !

Épisode 20 : Le selDans ce 20ème épisode, nous avons eu l'idée farfelue de parler de sujet qui revient souvent dans la communauté sans vraiment qu'on s'en rende compte, le sel : Avant toute chose il semble important de préciser que nous ne cherchons absolument pas à faire l'apologie de cette pratique, mais plutôt à comprendre les mécanismes qui pousse plusieurs d'entre nous à devenir particulièrement saléNous commençons par définir ce que c'est que le sel, qu'être salé, puis nous chercherons à comprendre quand est-ce que cela devient toxique ou comment éviter de l'être. Par la suite nous prendrons le temps de définir en détail pourquoi as-t-on parfois l'envie de salé sur notre prochain avant de terminer par une phase d'introspection en se demandant quoi faire de tout ce sel, ou est-ce qu'on devrait essayer d'être moins salé.Merci infiniment à Cha' Dads et Guillaume pour leur participation à cet épisode.Bonne écoute
