All Things Considered

As part of the BBC “Be Scam Safe” campaign, Rosa Hunt and guests examine the impact the growing scale of scams has on the way we see the world around us. A recent survey by the Good Faith Partnership and the University of Birmingham's Jubilee Centre found that honesty is the most important virtue for all religious groups, yet on a daily basis we are encouraged to be suspicious that the text messages, phone calls or emails we receive could be fraudulent. It's estimated that in the UK ten billion pounds each year are stolen by fraudsters. But what impact does learning to be distrustful have on us? Are people of faith more susceptible to being scammed? Rosa is joined by three guests: Professor Keith Jones leads the national research into financial fraud and scams with the Trading Standards Institute and their National Scams Team. He's a Christian, has a background in social work and specialises in the safeguarding vulnerable adults. Katharine Gray is the founder and director of Friends First, a Christian dating agency, and she shares insights into how to prevent romance fraud. Phil Swann explores the theology around honesty and trust. Phil is the pastoral director of the Evangelical Movement of Wales and the pastor of Llanelli Free Evangelical Church.We hear from Trading Standards officer Sarah Thomas-Grant who shares the current scams identified in Rhondda Cynon Taf. Steve Bumford, a Safeguarding officer in the Major Investigations Team in the Vale of Glamorgan, offers insights into a case of romance fraud. Reverend Mae Christie shares her personal experience of con artists stealing £138, 000 from her church in South London.

Hello! This week we're back to school and learning all about character education. But what is it and why is it relevant beyond the classroom too? One of the leading authorities on the topic (the Jubilee Centre) defines character education as all explicit and implicit educational activities that help young people to develop positive personal strengths or ‘virtues'. We explore what ‘good character' means, the impact of adverse life experiences, and whether character is the key to a fairer and more compassionate society.We speak to Bec Tigue, Director of School at the University of Birmingham School; Alex Hanratty, co-founder of ReconnectEd; and author and podcaster Bruce Daisley, who questions our typical understanding of resilience.Plus: Has Ed finally outfoxed the fox?

He researches, publishes and gives presentations in the UK and internationally in these areas. He also develops resources and training programmes for schools, the voluntary sector and other organisations. In this episode of On Point and the West Point Association for Graduates ‘Character Cut' series, Dr. Harrison talks about how he coined the term ‘cyber-phronesis,' its relevance at West Point in training young leaders, and the models he came up with for cultivating character in children. He also talks about his most recent book that focuses on how to cultivate character in your children so they can flourish online.---------------“The path to full wisdom is never really completed. I don't think any of us can say that we're ever fully wise in kind of a moral sense, mainly because new situations and challenges come at us all the time.

Christians are often confused by the sections of law they read in the Bible. Do the laws in Leviticus and Deuteronomy still apply to us today? Can they teach us anything about how to engage with our own culture, thousands of years on from when the laws were first written down? What can Christians learn from the laws in the Old Testament? In this talk, Professor Jonathan Burnside explains why we should take all parts of Scripture equally seriously, including all the texts that concern Biblical Law. We will also be joined after the talk by Christian Concern's chief executive, Andrea Williams, and Head of Public Policy, Tim Dieppe, for a live Q&A. --- About the speaker Jonathan is Professor of Biblical Law at the University of Bristol, and teaches criminal law, Jewish law and jurisprudence. He holds degrees from the University of Cambridge in law and criminology, and a doctorate in law from the University of Liverpool. He became professor at the University of Bristol's School of Law in 2012. Previously, he spearheaded 'Relational Justice' for the Jubilee Centre. His book, God, Justice and Society, received outstanding reviews internationally. Jonathan seeks to build bridges between our understanding of Biblical Law and modern law by connecting Biblical normative conventions to areas of modern law. --- More about the series Gospel Issues is Christian Concern's seminar series launched in 2019 to inform and equip the church on issues that Christians are facing today. Whether we are aware of it or not, society is changing at a rapid rate, and many Christians are finding themselves at odds with the truths of the Bible and what is being accepted and promoted in modern society. On the third Monday of each month, we will explore hot-button topics such as transgenderism, abortion, education reforms, marriage and Islam. These seminars aim to give Christians clear and compassionate ways of understanding, responding to and challenging the issues that are becoming ever present in schools, workplaces and churches. Join us as we explore the ideological roots of the challenges around us and put on the mind of Christ as we think through the Biblical responses needed. You can also watch all of our previous seminars for free! “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Questions / Background Notes Ph.D. on the influence of the Internet on eleven- to fourteen-year-olds - #2020–07–22 “Unique ethical challenges for the 21st century: online technology and virtue education” - We argue that education directed at the cultivation of cyber-wisdom and other cyber-virtues provides our best chance of creating a moral vocabulary that can guide us towards living well in the 21st century. - The aim of this article is to offer the first outline an educational model, founded on neo-Aristotelian theory, that illustrates how these qualities could be cultivated through moral education. - #2021–01–14 Thrive: How to Cultivate Character So That Your Child Can Flourish Online - Cultivating Cyber-Wisdom through Character Education - “Doing the right thing for the right reasons when online” - Pedagogical Approaches to Developing Cyber Wisdom - Activities to Cultivate Cyber-wisdom - #2021–03 “A New Educational Model for Online Flourishing: A Pragmatic Approach to Integrating Moral Theory for Cyber-Flourishing” - The model is constructed through a pragmatic approach to moral theory, adopting the central tenets of deontology, utilitarianism and virtue ethics, and showing how these can be integrated and put to work by teachers to tackle online harms. - The model is comprised of three core components, cyber-rules, cyber-wisdom and cyber-flourishing, and each is explained in detail in the article. - Cyber-rules must be put in place by schools to provide the foundations for the cultivation of character and cyber-wisdom. - Cyber-wisdom is the individual quality of doing the right thing, at the right time, especially when no one is looking. - Cyber-flourishing is defined as authentic happiness that comes from living morally in the online world, and is the utility value that we should all strive for. - The article concludes by outlining nine educational practices that demonstrate how teachers can adopt and implement the model in their schools. The model is the first attempt in the world to integrate moral theory into an educational model that provides an overarching and whole-school approach to tackling pressing everyday online concerns. - Character is experiencing a resurgence – but is it too late?

For Flourishing's Sake
S1 Ep1: Hope and Excitement

For Flourishing's Sake

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 2, 2019 6:16


Hello! I’m so excited this day has finally come, after months of planning and looking forward to the launch of the “For Flourishing’s Sake” podcast, finally, it’s here! It seems apt that, as I launch this brand new podcast filled with hope that you will find it helpful and that it will live up to the excitement so many expressed in anticipation of its launch, I should focus this episode on hope and excitement.  If you are in the UK and this is the start of a new academic year for you, you may also be feeling a mixture of hope and excitement - I know I’ve seen much of this mix expressed on Twitter, particularly by newly-qualified teachers about to embark on their first teaching year after qualifying! I remember feeling the same way when I was a teacher! Your students are likely to feel a similar mix - they may welcome the return to school with the excitement about seeing their friends again, or as a relief from boredom during the long summer break, or even as a return to a safe haven if their home circumstances are challenging.  They may be hopeful that they’ll have great teachers, that they will get on with their classmates, that they will get good grades.  One of the key elements to flourishing is an awareness of and the ability to work on our character strengths.  There are different schools of thought on the nature of character strengths, from the philosophical basis used by the Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues, to the psychology-based research by the VIA Institute on Character. According to the VIA Institute, the strength of hope is linked to our expectations about positive future events and outcomes.  It is closely linked to optimism and implies that we are in control; that we can take action towards achieving our goals and desires.  Psychologists talk about “explanatory style” in relation to optimism. If your explanatory style is optimistic, you tend to see events as specific to any given situation, susceptible to change, and external, whereas a person with a pessimistic explanatory style tends to perceive events as spanning across different situations, unchangeable and internal.  To put this simply, take a student that does badly in a test or exam.  If their explanatory style is optimistic, they’ll see this as a one-off event, they may even put it down to a particularly difficult paper rather than blaming themselves for not doing enough revision, and they’ll focus on being able to do better next time.  Whilst of course an overly optimistic explanatory style is not always helpful - it can lead to difficulties in taking responsibility, for example - having a certain tendency towards an optimistic explanatory style tends to mean you find it easier to be hopeful.  Take a moment to reflect on your natural explanatory style.  Are you more optimistic or pessimistic? Whichever way you lean naturally, you can still work on and make the most of your strength of hope.  If you are naturally pessimistic, you may just need to work a little harder at it. The VIA Institute don’t have a character strength called ‘Excitement’, but they do have one called ‘Zest’! Zest is characterised by a tendency to approach things with lots of energy and, yes, excitement; of having a sense of adventure about life.  According to the VIA, zest is a strength closely linked to physical and mental wellbeing, and to overall levels of happiness, so it’s well worth cultivating. Today, therefore, I invite you to tune in to your sense of hope and excitement as you begin your week and possibly your new academic year.  I know, because I’ve been there, that these are not always the most prominent emotions and thoughts you experience as a teacher when starting a new academic year or even just a new week, but while all emotions are valid and I am not asking you to ignore any emotions that make you feel less great about the days ahead, I am simply giving you a nudge to spend a bit more time focusing on those positive, feel-good emotions and character strengths: Hope and Excitement.  As you set off for work this morning, what are your hopes for today? What are you looking forward to and feeling excited about? Check in with your thoughts throughout the day and the week to actively remind yourself to focus on what has you all fired up and looking forward to the days ahead, and what positive outcomes and events you are hoping for. As you greet your students each day this week, why not ask them what they’re excited about and what their hopes are for the day, the week, the year even? Try it, and see what positive impact this deliberate focus brings… and let me know how you get on! And…For Flourishing’s Sake, have a great week!   Everyday Hero - 60 second version (Corporate, motivational, you tube, podcast) Music by Pond5

The effects of the worst financial crisis in living memory are still around us. But how can we reverse the failings that led to such crises as those at Northern Rock, News International, GSK and Barclays? Do we need an increase in regulation, or in leadership and ethics training? Or is it more about incentives and personal morality? Former corporate lawyer in the City and author of 'Of Markets and Men', Cambridge graduate James Featherby explores these questions, arguing that finance reflects worldview. This lecture was then followed by a discussion by a panel of finance experts. This unique event was supported by Transforming Business, the Kirby Laing Institute for Christian Ethics, the Jubilee Centre, and Christian Heritage, all based in Cambridge. The event was held at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, on 22nd November 2012. Transforming Business is an innovative research and development project in the University of Cambridge.
