I'm James Sturtevant. I taught for 34 years, I'm in my 60's, I'm in great shape and I feel fantastic. I'm a certified health coach and my objective is to help retired educators make awesome health and lifestyle choices. That's my mission in coaching and the mission of this podcast. Each episode will feature a topic that is highly relevant to retired teachers. I'll either interview an engaging and relevant guest, or I'll fly solo. Each episode will follow a template: I'll identify a problem I'll expose you to some solutions I'll encourage you to take action I want to keep this first episode brief, but before I leave, I'll give you a bit more background. I'm a husband, a father, a grandfather, a teacher, and a coach. I taught high school social studies for 34 years. My passion about education inspired me to author 4 books on student-teacher relationships, student engagement, and teacher well being. I coached football. I coached track and field. I was a strength coach. Outside of school, I taught group fitness classes. I'm a graduate of the Primal Health Institute. I'm still teaching, but now at the college level working with future and current educators. I'm also still coaching, but now with my tribe—fellow retired educators. As I previously mentioned, I feel fantastic. You deserve to feel fantastic too. I crafted this program with the retired educator in mind. And before I wrap-up this introductory episode, I'd like to invite you to navigate to theretiredteachercoach.com. This is where you'll find the pages for each episode which include a narrative, images, and helpful links. Hey…we've worked hard to get where we are right now. A lot of people envy us. But finding retirement bliss can be tricky. Let me help you learn to love being retired.

Kubernetes with James Sturtevant As applications grow to span multiple containers deployed across multiple servers, operating them becomes more complex. While it is possible to maintain these growing applications manually, most will reach out to an orchestrator to help them with the tasks. As applications grow to span multiple containers deployed across multiple servers, operating them becomes more complex. One of such orchestrators is Kubernetes.  Today we talk with James Sturtevant, Principal Software Engineering Lead at Microsoft. James is a coauthor of the book Kubernetes for Windows. He helped blaze the trail for Windows support in upstream Kubernetes for enterprises, and now he helps us understand how Kubernetes work and why you would want to use it.  When you finish listening to the episode, connect with James on LinkedIn, visit SIG-Windows and Kubernetes channels on Slack and grab a copy of Kubernetes on Windows.  Mentioned in this episode: James on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamessturtevant/ Jay Vyas, James Sturtevent, Kubernetes on Windows, at https://www.manning.com/books/kubernetes-on-windows  SIG-Windows Channel on Slack at https://kubernetes.slack.com/?redir=%2Fmessages%2Fsig-windows Kubernetes Channel on Slack at https://slack.k8s.io

When did you decide you wanted to be a teacher? For some of us we were rather young, and for others it wasn’t until after college. For James Sturtevant, it was the latter. But his late arrival to the teaching career path has not impeded his ability to become an exemplary educator. In this episode we discuss what he did early in his career that kept him in the field, how being open to new ideas accelerated his career and challenged him to write his first book, and why he continues to serve the world of education as an adjunct lecturer and his continued writing practice with the release of his new book “Teaching In Magenta: 100 paths to joy and well being for you and your students”Timestamps0:01 - Intro3:01 - James and his school-age experience7:45 - Post-college and falling into a teaching career11:07 - Experience at Ohio State13:12 - Best thing about that first year of teaching16:26 - Being open to new suggestions to improve your craft23:12 - The conception of “You Gotta Connect”27:21 - Balancing connecting with students and holding them accountable30:50 - Favorite tips and tools from “Hacking Engagement” - Voxer and PearDeck40:10 - Where “Teaching in Magenta” came from.45:32 - Path #1 - Apologize.49:10 - Final thoughts on how fast your career goes50:30 - Exit Ticket Questions55:48 - Nugget and Wrap-up

Do you have a class that you probably should get a little extra in the paycheck for coping with on a daily basis? Do you have students who dominate your thoughts...and not in a good way, when you're away from school? Do you catch yourself having imaginary confrontations with certain kids? Do you have a class that causes you great anxiety as they roll through the door each morning? If you do, join the club. I had such a class last semester. I was wondering, Do I still have it? So, I set to work bonding with these challenging kids. This episode will describe my approach. What I love about this episode, is that all my suggestions are totally in the teacher's control. You're not reliant on student compliance in order to implement these strategies. My hope is that over time your calm, consistent, and persistent efforts will be rewarded. Give my ideas a try. I have confidence in your success!

I remember 10th-grade Geometry. I was quite a distracted high schooler. And to accentuate this problem...I was a total humanities guy. Math class was more of a social opportunity as opposed to an academic endeavor. Consequently, I was totally lost. I had virtually no idea what was going on. Unfortunately, there are a lot of kids in Math classes today who resemble the 15-year-old me. So at this juncture of our journey, Mark Robinson enters the fray. Mark is a fabulous Math teacher who embarked this fall on a Standards-Based Learning journey. Standards-Based Learning is a powerful wave that's churning on education's horizon. Mark stops into today to talk about what it is, how it works and evaluates its effectiveness. The 15-year-old James Sturtevant would have thrived with a teacher like Mark.

He predicted he would teach a year or two, before pursuing something grown up: go to law school, get a PhD, or enter the private sector and earn a fortune. But, a funny thing happened on the way to the Forum. James fell in love with his students. Could one really get paid for bonding with young people? The answer was…ABSOLUTELY! And still is, some thirty years and thousands of students later. “Your students seem so relaxed and happy. How’d you create this atmosphere?” was the haunting question a visiting Education professor once asked James after observing his class. Caught off guard, he gave a meager and vague response. After much reflection and research, James is now prepared to answer the question. He teaches at Big Walnut High School in Sunbury, Ohio. He is married to Penny who is a middle school principal. They have 3 children…Jason, David, and Maria, and one grandchild…Kaia. James is also an author of “You’ve Gotta Connect” published in 2014 (see link below) and Professional Development Presenter. He has been featured in numerous publications (listed below).   Quotables: Your students are mirror images of you. Accept your students exactly where they are.

Todays guest joining us on Join Up Dots is a man who is on a mission to change lives. And it seems to me he is doing at the very spot where we need those lives to changed the most...the classroom. Yes, he is a teacher who is focusing on a very simple principle but one that can make so much difference. He believes that "A secure and trusting relationship between teacher and students is at the heart of positive discipline and a safe, productive classroom. The positive effects of building teacher-student relationships impact all aspects of classroom life. Students come to class and like to be there, they are more engaged in learning, they retain more of what they learn, and their creativity is unleashed. There are fewer behavior issues, lower dropout rates, and more harmony between class members." And that period of our lives when we are going through the system to be pushed out into the real world, is the time when we should be inspired and encouraged to think big, be creative, and love our studies. And now with a bestselling book "You've Gotta Connect: Building Relationships That Lead to Engaged Students, Productive Classrooms, and Higher Achievement" and more and more people taking an interest in his work it seems that this is a mission that we can all connect with at heart. So when did he realise that its more about connecting and less about the content that he teaches that truly makes the difference? And did he always have a desire to be a published author, or is he surprised to now see himself sitting proudly in the author section of "Amazon"? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots, with the one and only Mr James Sturtevant.

In this segment our guest shares what he's learned about building relationships with students --especially those who don't want to connect with you. Follow: @jamessturtevant @coolcatteacher @bamradionetwork #edtechchat #edchat #edtech James Sturtevant is working through his 30th year in public education. He believes a strong student/teacher is essential to the learning process and is the author of You've Got to Connect.
