Podcasts about hurford

Molly Hurford knew she wanted to be a writer from a very young age. She also loved being active outdoors. But she had decided that, as a writer, she couldn't possibly also be an athlete. That all changed in college.  Today Hurford embodies many identities, including owner/founder of Strong Girl Publishing, writer, podcaster, and athlete, including being an ultra runner.  This story is all about how Hurford developed into the athlete she is today, and how her combined passions of writing and sports have become a powerful force for change and inspiration for Hurford herself, as well as the girls and women she writes for and publishes books for.

I am delighted to announce that our first guest interview for the 2025 season of Decoding Learning Differences is Dr. Hurford.  Dr. Hurford is doing great things in the world, studying dyslexia and teaching kids with dyslexia as part of his non-profit organization!

Did you know that up to 40% of children in the US struggle with reading by the fourth grade? In the UK, that's the same as years 4-5 in Primary School! In this episode, Matthew Head sits down with Dr. David Hurford, a research scientist, professor at Pittsburgh State University, and founder of CARRD, a non-profit dedicated to helping people with dyslexia become confident readers.Dr. Hurford shares his personal journey from aspiring astronomer to leading expert in developmental psychology, where he focuses on why children struggle with reading and how to solve these challenges. His early research revealed that teaching reading effectively hinges on structured literacy—a method centred on decoding words as a systematic code.We discuss the emotional impact of dyslexia on children, including anxiety and self-doubt, and how early intervention can transform not just academic outcomes but emotional well-being. Dr. Hurford explains how CARRD offers affordable evaluations and interventions, even creating tools like the free online dyslexia evaluation platform, Dyslexia101.com, to make resources accessible globally.One of the standout moments in this episode is Dr. Hurford's perspective on dyslexia: while it's important to highlight strengths, it's misleading to tell children they have “superpowers.” Instead, he encourages parents to focus on providing accurate information and unconditional support.Whether you're a parent, educator, or someone navigating dyslexia yourself, this episode is packed with actionable insights and hope for creating a more inclusive, literate world.Key Topics:Early intervention changes lives—don't wait to seek support if a child is struggling to read.Use structured literacy techniques to teach reading effectively.Focus on your child's abilities and provide unconditional support rather than perpetuating myths.Free online resources like Dyslexia101.com can offer quick and accessible support.Literacy is a human right —societies thrive when everyone can read and critically evaluate information.Timestamps00:13 – 00:55: Introduction—Meet Dr. David Hurford and his mission to help people with dyslexia01:10 – 03:43: Dr. Hurford's journey from aspiring astronomer to expert in developmental psychology03:56 – 07:15: The emotional impact of dyslexia on children—anxiety, depression, and the power of intervention08:27 – 12:39: Why English is a challenging language to learn and how structured literacy addresses this13:15 – 15:08: Addressing myths like the “superpower” narrative and focusing on real strengths21:47 – 24:13: The creation of Dyslexia101.com and making evaluations accessible globally27:37 – 31:01: The importance of educating children about their dyslexia with tools like the I Have Dyslexia book series35:11 – 38:18: Why science-based reading methods are crucial for societal progress47:10 – 50:35: Dr. Hurford's reflections on his career and advice for parents seeking answersFor more hacks tip and tricks for dyslexia and full show notes please visit Dyslexia Life Hacks.Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter

Welcome to another episode of the Mads Singers Management Podcast!Joining us today is Ceri Hurford-Jones. Ceri has had humble beginnings by working on a farm but eventually made his way up and worked by being the managing director of Spire FM and finally starting his own business. Ceri and I share the same passion for helping businesses develop, grow, and succeed. So today, Ceri and I sat down to talk about management and how to hire the right people. Being open, honest, fair, fun, professional, and unconventional are Ceri's values; however, he shares that, while we can share or influence others to follow our values, these won't work or impact if we do not follow our values. And although change doesn't happen overnight, you will eventually see many positive changes (and close more deals) in yourself and your staff. However, simply writing down your values and making stuff up along the way to prop up a company or brand quickly won't help it survive in the long run. Like most business owners, Ceri also had his share of difficulties in his career where another group tried to do their job, and although this led to the radio being bought, Ceri was able to bounce back. Ceri stresses the importance of being open with your staff by sharing whatever profit or loss you've made because this allows your staff to help gain an insight into the business or company and make them steer the business in the right direction. An informed team is also good at making decisions that will help you and everyone else involved in the industry.Key Learning Points: Ceri says that you can't share your values if you don't live or follow your values in life - 3:44 Although it sounds cliche, Ceri shares how a staff that makes you (the business owner) look good can work wonders for your company and/or brand. - 5:38 Mads shares how businesses, especially the small ones, are helping people by offering jobs because this allows people to have something to look up to. - 07:21 Ceri says that good people (employees) stay longer because they take pride in their business. - 08:24  Mads says that when it comes to hiring people, one should start with their staff because people like working with like-minded people.- 10:39 Ceri encourages business owners and managers to be open with their team by sharing updates about its projects.- 12:44 Ceri says that business owners should not be scared to make their staff "mini-owners" in their business or schemes. - 19:15 Ceri shares that one shouldn't start something if they're not going to see it through seriously- 20:47 Ceri adds that business owners should hire slowly and fire quickly - 21:18 Mads says that managers shouldn't sit around and focus on the stats and numbers but instead focus on their team members well-being.- 27:00 Connect with Ceri:LinkedIn

Building upon The Origins of Meaning (see previous interview), James R. Hurford‘s The Origins of Grammar (Language in the Light of Evolution, Vol. 2) (Oxford University Press, 2012) second volume sets out to explain how the unique complexity of human syntax might have evolved. In doing so, it addresses the long-running argument between (to generalise) linguists and non-linguists as to how big a deal this is: linguists tend to claim that the relevant capacities are unique to humans, while researchers in other disciplines argue for parallels with other animal behaviours. James Hurford sides with the linguists here, but not without giving careful consideration to the status of birdsong, whalesong, and similar systems. Meanwhile, at the other end of the evolutionary process (so far), interest is growing in accounts of human syntax that are incidentally much more gradualist in nature and which invite potential explanation in evolutionary terms. Moreover, the idea of quantitative limits on human processing are being appealed to, in conflict with the tradition view of ‘infinite’ generative capacity. In the second part of the book, Hurford charts a course through this field in order to characterise the ‘target’ of the evolutionary story. Finally, he turns to the process itself, positing a role for the ‘symbolic niche’ in the rapid co-evolution of culture and individual capacities throughout the span of humans’ existence, and considering how grammaticalisation might be responsible for the earliest, as well as the most recent, innovations in human language. In this interview, we touch on many of these topics, and try to situate this work within the history of linguistics. We consider the implications of new trends in linguistic theory and research practice, and look at how evolutionary claims might be validated – or at least shown to be plausible, in the face of residual scepticism. And we discuss whether and when genome research will inform linguistic analysis. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

James Hurford sides with the linguists here, but not without giving careful consideration to the status of birdsong, whalesong, and similar systems. Meanwhile, at the other end of the evolutionary process (so far), interest is growing in accounts of human syntax that are incidentally much more gradualist in nature and which invite potential explanation in evolutionary terms. Moreover, the idea of quantitative limits on human processing are being appealed to, in conflict with the tradition view of ‘infinite' generative capacity. In the second part of the book, Hurford charts a course through this field in order to characterise the ‘target' of the evolutionary story. Finally, he turns to the process itself, positing a role for the ‘symbolic niche' in the rapid co-evolution of culture and individual capacities throughout the span of humans' existence, and considering how grammaticalisation might be responsible for the earliest, as well as the most recent, innovations in human language. In this interview, we touch on many of these topics, and try to situate this work within the history of linguistics. We consider the implications of new trends in linguistic theory and research practice, and look at how evolutionary claims might be validated – or at least shown to be plausible, in the face of residual scepticism. And we discuss whether and when genome research will inform linguistic analysis.

Evolutionary approaches to linguistics have notoriously had a rather chequered history, being associated with vague and unfalsifiable claims about the motivations for the origins of language. It seems as though the subject has only recently come in from the cold, and yet there are already rich traditions of research in several distinct fields that offer relevant insights: insights that are crucial if we consider Dobzhansky’s maxim, “Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution”, also to apply to human language. In his two-volume (so far) work, James Hurford brings together many of these disparate strands of research and endeavours to answer the question of how humans, uniquely among extant species, came to have such elaborative, productive, referential language. His work is at once vast and authoritative, stimulating and original, and highly accessible. It serves both to introduce new ideas and to draw out potential connections between familiar ones. It’s critical without being dismissive, and seems to succeed in its goal of being genuinely interdisciplinary. This first interview revisits the 2007 book, The Origins of Meaning (Oxford University Press, 2007), which sets out some ideas as to how both meaning (as a relatively ‘private’ matter) and communication (a ‘public’ one) came to be elaborated in humans. We discuss how meaning can be characterised in a way that is evolutionarily friendly, and the kinds of neural processes that might underlie the shape of propositional thought. We look at the relation that might be argued between visual attention and (pre-)linguistic semantics. And we turn to studies of monkey alarm calls, and ask whether the origins of referential meaning are already exhibited by our distant primate cousins. Learn more about your ad choices.
