With Republicans holding control in Washington, a significant debate has emerged within conservative circles regarding the role of the federal government in primary and secondary education. Should conservatives leverage their electoral mandate to influence the curricula of K-12 schools, or is good governance better served by a more restrained approach? What is the purview of the federal government when it comes to education, and what is better left at the state and local level? What changes, if any, should the government try to implement, and what would be the best methods available?Join us for an expert discussion on these and related issues.Featuring:Robert S. Eitel, Co-Founder and President, Defense of Freedom InstituteRoger Severino, Vice President of Domestic Policy and The Joseph C. and Elizabeth A.

In een samenwerking tussen pedagogen van de universiteit Leuven, die begin 2025 een congres organiseerden over de toekomst van de school, en de schoolleidersopleiding ATTC maken we een speciale serie van Onderwijs leiden met hart en ziel over de grammatica van de school. Elke aflevering gaat over  een of twee aspecten van de school. Deze keer…Kunnen we de school hebben, bedenken of maken zonder… curriculum?Te gast zijn Maarten Simons en Rembert Dejans we spreken over de volgende aspecten van het curriculum:Curriculum kan prescriptief en descriptief benaderd worden, dus enerzijds als inhouden en vaardigheden die een leerling moeten leren, anderzijds als in curriculum vitae, dus na afloop terugkijkend vragen: wat heeft de school met mij gedaan?Curriculum als een leefwereld of een proces, in plaats van alleen de focus op het eindproduct en zo efficiënt en effectief mogelijk van A naar B te gaan. Wat daartussen net zo belangrijk.Curriculum als hardloop track, een ruimte en tijd die je bewust creëert om te kunnen oefenen in plaats van een instrument om het onderwijs te controleren.Curriculum als een manier om leerlingen tot het midden te brengen, het punt waarop ze elke richting uit kunnen. Je leert niet om schrijver te worden, wel om alles te kunnen schrijven.Curriculum als het leren van nieuwe werelden, maar ook van een andere verhouding met wat je al kent, zoals leren schrijven een nieuwe verhouding tot je moedertaal is.Curriculum als transformatie van de inhouden die de samenleving van belang acht en in vertrouwen overdraagt aan de school. Niet als uitvoeringsprogramma, maar als middel voor leraren om inhouden op tafel te leggen waar leerlingen mee kunnen oefenen.Curriculum als enerzijds een manier waarop de samenleving haar verwachting naar het onderwijs uitdrukt, in termen van inhouden, anderzijds als de vraag van de school aan de samenleving om haar verantwoordelijkheid op te nemen over wat op tafel moet komen.Deze podcast is mede mogelijk gemaakt door ⁠schoolleidersopleiding ATTC⁠, onderwijsadvies ⁠School Matters⁠ en rustplek ⁠De vallei van het goede leven⁠.

Dave is joined by Dr Joanna Williams for a wide ranging conversation on the Philosophy of Education, the purpose of teaching and the role of knowledge in the curriculum.

Hosts: Taylor Morgan and Adam Gardiner  Growing up in rural Utah, State Representative Rex Shipp says his life was aided and protected in knowing how to act around firearms.

He’s proposing a bill that would add firearm safety courses to Utah’s public-school curriculum; he joins the show to talk about why he believes the courses would protect Utah’s youth.

 Tune in to the Marc Cox Morning Show with Kim St. Onge for a rollercoaster ride through the land of gender inclusivity in children's education. We'll dive headfirst into the chaos of introducing 437 genders into kids' games,.

The Marc Cox Morning Show, hosted by Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge, is broadcasting live from Chick'n'Elly's in Eureka, Missouri.

In this podcast, Niall interviews Niamh Uí Bhriain about a controversial SPHE (Social, Personal, and Health Education) book being used in Irish schools. The conversation revolves around accusations that the book mocks traditional Irish culture, portraying an Irish family as backward, insular, and narrow-minded compared to more modern, diverse families depicted as progressive and inclusive. This portrayal has sparked outrage among parents, teachers, and politicians, with many calling for the book to be withdrawn.Niamh and Niall discuss how the book's representation of traditional Irish cultural elements, such as GAA, Irish music, and family businesses, is framed negatively, implying that these traditions are outdated and inferior. The book's narrative is accused of promoting critical race theory by suggesting that Irish culture is less valuable than more cosmopolitan and diverse lifestyles. Niamh notes that the book's controversial chapter is absent from the Irish-language version, which she finds indicative of a deliberate inconsistency.The podcast also touches on the inclusion of gender ideology in the SPHE curriculum, with both Niamh and Niall expressing concerns about teaching students that gender identity is fluid and not inherently tied to biological sex. They argue that this approach is confusing for children and lacks scientific grounding.Public reaction has been significant, with multiple senators and TDs supporting calls to remove the book from schools. Niamh mentions that many teachers are uncomfortable with the material and some have refused to teach it, highlighting a growing discontent within the educational community.Social media's role in bringing attention to this issue is also discussed, with Niall and Niamh emphasizing the importance of platforms like Twitter for free speech and for disseminating information that might otherwise be suppressed by mainstream media. They express concerns about potential government efforts to limit such platforms, which they believe are crucial for public discourse and accountability.This episode raises important questions about cultural representation in education, the role of political correctness, and the impact of these educational practices on national identity and cultural values in Ireland.

A CMO Confidential Interview with Lynne Segall, Associate Dean at the Goizueta Business School at Emory University, formerly the Director of Talent and Organization Offering Development at Accenture. Lynne discusses the importance of students learning technical and theoretical skills along with the "harder to teach" softer skills like "how to get stuff done," the differences between Millennials and Gen Z, and why core conceptual classes still matter. Key topics include: why experiential learning is so important but so hard to teach; why she pushes students to "fully define the problem" to be solved; and some of the barriers slowing development of new b-school curricula. Tune in to hear why "good showmanship" can't cover up poor thinking.#CMO #BusinessPodcast #MarketingSuccess #LeadershipDevelopment #MarketingTechniquesCHAPTERS:0:00 - Intro0:40 - Lynn Seagull Introduction1:40 - Are B-Schools Keeping Up with the Market Trends5:20 - Lynn's Business Classes11:00 - Showmanship in Business12:22 - Business Schools: Teaching "C" Skills Over Functions17:28 - Evaluating Leadership Skills18:08 - Desired Business School Curriculum by Companies19:58 - Gaps in Business School Education21:50 - Scaling Business Education26:26 - Experiential Learning in Business31:40 - Practical Advice for Business Students32:10 - Practical Career Advice32:35 - Funniest Business Story35:22 - Sign OffLinkedin: CMOConfidentialSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1MzXYx0wRB3thgZitlfJoS?si=406b1b98eca6470fApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cmo-confidential/id1668226567Subscribe to the CMO Confidential Newsletter for Exclusive Content: https://cmoconfidential.substack.com/Lynne Segall: https://www.linkedin.com/in/professor-lynne-segall/https://goizueta.emory.edu/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The largest school district in Texas lost its elected leaders in the summer of 2023. In their place – a state-appointed board along with a leader unafraid of creating upheaval and massive changes.It's unusual for school districts to lose local control, especially on a scale this large. Suddenly, the Houston Independent School District with its nearly 200,000 students and 11,000 teachers didn't know what would happen next. But the reforms came quickly.What led to the takeover and what's the impact of this whole-scale, test-based reform? We go back decades to understand how a history of high-stakes testing got us here. That pressure to perform trickles down to campus leaders and teachers, to students and their parents. The stakes mount as the takeover plays out and no school is left untouched.The Takeover is a seasonal podcast about power and public education. The first season captures 18 months of on-the-ground, neighborhood-level reporting, enterprising investigative work, and deep context about education policy and history from a range of expert researchers.
