Pacific Paradise by Kurt CarlsonPacific Paradise is the tale of two coming-of-age stories, one of a small island-nation, and the second of a young girl, the daughter of the nation's president.While citizens of Sumonajob battle between isolationism and an open country welcoming tourism, Mimi must decide which side to choose as her relationship with American businessman Jason Richards grows from hatred and misunderstanding to friendship and alliance.Among the subplots of the story include the European colonization of the island, the separation of political factions on the future of Sumonajob, and the various characters who show up throughout the story.Whether it's the weeklong crab races, the deadly trip down to Shanty Town, the abduction of Richards's secretary on their second day on the island, or the comings and goings of Luana and Jeanie, the story twists unexpectedly at every point.Kurt Carlson was born and raised on Long Island, New York. He spent 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, having spent approximately 14 of those years in the Pacific Theater of Operations.Carlson was stationed in the Philippines, Thailand and Okinawa, Japan. It was while on Okinawa that the idea for this story began to develop. The island-nation of Sumonajob is a compilation of all these countries where Carlson was stationed. Some of the events were loosely based on world events which happened during the time frame that Carlson was there.After retiring from the military, Carlson settled in Winter Haven, Florida. He has a son living in Massachusetts, one step son and one step daughter, both in North Carolina, and a fiancee, Jo Anne, making her own adventures in the Middle East.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08NFMKZFR/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1https://www.kurtcarlson.net/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/5522pmg.mp3

This episode, hosted by Kurt Carlson, features noted author and workshop leader, Julie Stern speaking with us about her work in conceptual teaching and learning. Julie is a keynote speaker for our 2019 MNIB Summer Conference at Bethel University. Registration can be found at our website. Their conversation, recorded over Skype, is filled with examples of students using concepts to transfer learning across subjects. Once students have an understanding of the big concepts, operating behind the facts, it is almost like the movie, "The Matrix". They see connections everywhere they look and easily begin creating their own knowledge from those connections. It is pretty impressive to hear about 3rd graders who find ways to connect culture and economics on their own.Julie Stern has many ways to share her work - check out these links:BooksFree resourcesYouTube

In this episode, we talk to Kurt Carlson, a trainer in the IB Educator Network - known as IBEN. We will hear how the IB uses a cadre of current teachers (who take part in continuous professional development) as trainers for the entire network of IB teachers in schools across the globe. It is their work as IB Educators that ensures the IB principles and practices are in place in every IB school. IBEN members play different roles in the organization: subject area trainers, site visitors, school consultants, among others. Kurt lays out the benefits of becoming an IBEN member both for the teacher and their home school communities. Listen to see how you might become a part of this important work helping train the next generation of IB teachers and leaders. More information about the IB Educator Network (the link Kurt mentioned in the podcast) is available here. You can also learn more about the IB Organization here.

As U.S. election rhetoric reaches a fever pitch, politicians aren't the only ones taking a stand on issues. Some of the biggest brands around -- Chipotle, Chick-fil-A and Apple -- are wading into politics, a behavior that may only intensify as November approaches. Georgetown researchers Kurt Carlson and Chris Hydock join Tori to discuss the economic consequences companies face when they take a position on divisive issues, and how it's easier than ever for consumers to vote with their wallets.
