Education On Fire - Sharing creative and inspiring learning in our schools
Martyn Cast is a distinguished musician and educator from Jenca Music School in Jersey. Martyn discusses the transformative power of music, particularly in educational contexts, where it serves as a medium for individuals—especially children—to express themselves and navigate their emotions. He recounts his personal journey, beginning with a childhood steeped in musical influence, which culminated in the founding of the Jenca Music School in Jersey. Through this institution, he aims to cultivate a nurturing environment where students can explore their musical passions, develop resilience, and ultimately achieve personal growth through music. Martyn Cast, owner/ guitar tutor at Jenca Music School, Jersey C.I.Author of children's guitar songbook Mr Martie's Marvellous MelodiesTakeaways: Music serves as an empowering force in people's lives, enabling them to express their creativity and emotions. The journey of learning an instrument is often more about personal enjoyment than achieving formal grades or accolades. Inspiration is crucial in teaching, as it helps to foster a genuine love for music among students. Resilience is vital in the learning process; students must persist through challenges to achieve their musical goals. The connection between teacher and student can profoundly influence a child's engagement and growth in music. Music education provides not only academic benefits but also enhances social skills and personal development in learners.

CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Es ist keine Art, wie der Mensch mit anderen Arten umgeht, mit Tier- und Pflanzenarten! Er dringt in natürliche Lebensräume ein, er verändert und verschmutzt sie, er beutet sie aus und bringt sie aus dem Gleichgewicht. Und mit all diesen einschneidenden Maßnahmen sägt er zugleich an dem Ast, auf dem er selber sitzt. Denn wenn es weniger Arten gibt oder weniger Exemplare jeder Art oder wenn eine geschwächte heimische Arte von einer anderen verdrängt wird, dann hat das nicht nur Folgen für die Tiere und Pflanzen selbst, sondern auch für uns Menschen. Zahlreiche Studien zeigen (jede für sich und erst recht alle zusammengenommen), dass sich die Zahl der Tier- und Pflanzenarten und auch die Zusammensetzung der Artengemeinschaften immer mehr verändert. Höchste Zeit also, dass wir versuchen, wieder gut zu machen, was wir angerichtet haben. Denn noch ist nicht alles verloren. Wie also können wir zu Rettern werden - für Pflanzen, für Tiere und für uns selbst? Lassen wir uns aufklären von Prof. Josef Settele vom Helmholtz-Zentrum für Umweltforschung, von Astrid Schomaker, Leiterin des UN-Übereinkommens über die biologische Vielfalt, von Dr. Julia Krohmer, Leiterin Wissenstransfer bei der Senckenberg Gesellschaft und von Robert Spreter, Geschäftsführer beim Bündnis „Kommunen für biologische Vielfalt“. Podcast-Tipp: Im Gespräch - Deutschlandfunk Kultur Bienenforscherin - Kirsten Traynor: "Ohne Bienen fehlt die Vielfalt" Kirsten Traynors Liebe zu Bienen begann zufällig: Bei einem Schnupperkurs für Imkerei gewann sie einen Bienenstock ohne Volk. Aus dem Hobby wurde Profession.

Financial Coaches Network - The Podcast: Build your Financial Coaching Business
Josh and Amelie discuss the first chapter of the Financial Counseling textbook by Durband, Law, and Mazzolini. Top takeaways: Many AFCs work on military bases, in non-profits, or in private practice, but there are also opportunities in banks, schools, hospitals, and more. For one-time engagements, technology isn't as important, but for longer-term engagements, most clients are going to expect some kind of budgeting technology. Counselors should be careful about building codependent, ongoing relationships with clients. Building relationships with other professionals is important so you can refer out.

I'll never forget the first time I sat down with a dental insurance representative, and started asking questions. I began with questions based on all the “false information” that had been thrown at me through the years regarding PPO contracts, such as: “sending in fee-for-service (FFS) fees increases PPO reimbursement rates”, or “you can't upgrade patients on PPO plans” and many others. Her response to my questions was very interesting and not what I expected.Support the show

“We spent time today discussing all the ways that owners can have a positive impact on career growth, whether you're a bedside nurse or just in teaching, research, hospital leadership. More than career growth, I see ONS as kind of a barrier to burnout and a catalyst for professional self-care. I think that no matter what aspect of oncology care you're involved in, it is a difficult and complex specialty. And I think with that can come a lot of challenges and tough days, and ONS brings a sense of community to that and, specifically, a community that is pushing cancer care forward,” ONS member Amy Kaiser, MSN, CPNP-PC, told Nick Escobedo, DNP, RN, OCN®, NE-BC, member of the ONS 50th anniversary committee, during a conversation about the benefits of ONS membership. Escobedo spoke with Kaiser, who joined ONS as a student, and Susan Groenwald, PhD, RN, ANEF, FAAN, a charter ONS member, about how ONS membership and resources have helped them grow in their careers.

The area that sticks out to me was, I was the board liaison to the standards committee. And so, the development of oncology nursing standards, it was a hallmark and critical to the field and to me and my practice, as well as education. It was very exciting time.” TS 4:18 Kaiser: “I think that my very first introduction to cancer care came from the Cancer Basics course. I think I feel fortunate that I probably was the recipient of a lot of the efforts of Susan, who has pioneered so many of these different oncology resources. I had the benefit of being at school during a time where there were a ton of resources available through ONS.” TS 5:38 Groenwald: “Having attended the meetings and getting involved in some of the committees is where I met people and worked with people. And that became, for me, very vital for doing a book, where it was a contributed book, an edited book [Cancer Nursing: Principles and Practice], so we had lots of different chapters and contributors, but I met them all through ONS. And how we communicated was via the old-fashioned mail and telephone. I didn't even have a computer. We typed the whole manuscript, thousands and thousands of pages, the first couple editions.” TS 12:25 Kaiser: “What's so wonderful about going to [Congress] is everybody there is looking to move oncology nursing forward and meet people and connect and network. And it's this, you know, magical space of people who are meeting and sharing shared experiences, and I got to feel all of that prior to even being an oncology nurse. And I went home from that first conference, immediately discussed with my manager that I wanted to move to the oncology floor, and I did. But it was meeting all of those people and hearing about those career paths that did that for me.” TS 16:42 Kaiser: “I think people who are involved with ONS, I found, are also very, very willing to mentor. I was very fortunate as I was speaking to these people, not even being an oncology nurse, that they were so welcoming and wanted to welcome me into the specialty and wanted to show me how to get involved. So I think it's just taking that very first step of talking to somebody or going to that local chapter meeting, and then the rest of it becomes a lot easier.” TS 19:29 Groenwald: “One thing Amy mentioned that I think is important is that new nurses have so many opportunities. I think it's scary to put forth an abstract to speak at the conference. It's scary, but it's such a great opportunity for anybody at any level in their career. If they have something of interest to share, it's such a great place. I feel like it launched my career in terms of being able to speak in front of people and think critically about things and put together some projects. This all came from my work with ONS.” TS 20:51

"The noblest fate that a man can endure is to place his own mortal body between his loved home and the war's desolation." Robert Heinlein, Starship Troopers I think the military science fiction milieu provides a great tool for forecasting and predicting possible conflict futures. It may be yet another tool to take this magnificent US 20th century fighting machine and make it a peer combat competitor in the 21st century. Speculative fiction provides a means to extrapolate what possible war futures are peering over the horizon.
