Zaretta Hammond has spent her career pushing school leaders past feel-good equity language and into the instructional core, where the real gaps live. Her latest book, Rebuilding Students' Learning Power: Teaching for Instructional Equity and Cognitive Justice, names a pattern she calls cognition redlining — the quiet, well-intentioned way schools underdevelop the thinking capacity of historically marginalized students. She's the author behind Culturally Responsive Teaching and the Brain, a text already sitting on most instructional coaches' shelves. Districts have poured billions into equity work for three decades, and the outcomes for Black, brown, Indigenous, and linguistically diverse students haven't moved. Zaretta Hammond says that's not a funding problem or an effort problem — it's a cognition problem, and most principals have never been trained to see it.

Labour has overtaken Reform UK this week for the first time since March last year, according to polls. The ‘Burnham bounce' comes two weeks into Andy Burnham's tenure in No 10, during which he has made major announcements on the cost of living and localised education to reduce youth unemployment, and an announcement on social care is expected soon. Is this a turning point for the beleaguered Labour government – or simply a honeymoon for the new PM? Lucy Hough speaks to senior political correspondent Peter Walker. Watch on YouTube.

Brandy Shufutinsky details how Qatar has provided extensive grants for Arabic language and culture programs in U.S.K-12 schools. These programs often utilize textbooks that omit Israel from maps and glorify extremist ideologies. Qatar Foundation International (QFI) even funds teacher salaries and work visas, raising concerns about who these educators truly report to. This funding creates a "pipeline" from elementary school to higher education, potentially instilling foreign-influenced perspectives in future generations of American citizens. (15)SEPTEMBER 1932

Patrick opens with a flurry of questions about parish sacramental access, shifting straight into parents wrestling with how faith endures when children grow up and step into secular spaces. Unexpected moments surface: a father refusing a suitor, families weighing boundaries, and frustrated reflections on why young adults abandon the beliefs they were raised with, all while the wider culture seems eager to tug them elsewhere. The conversation pivots to why students barely touch books and how even spiritual terms like “Spouse of the Holy Spirit” can unsettle listeners, hinting at how language and habit both drift amid change. Kevin (email) - Denying a Sacrament because of your zip code? (00:54) Email - Do you expect a man to ask your permission before he proposes to your daughter? Do you teach your sons to ask her father's permission before he proposes to a woman? (08:35) Kim - How do I tell my daughter that God loves her? (19:23) Kathy - I am enjoying the topic you are discussing about dating. Can you also talk about evaluating a woman for your son?

What if we read with our kids? I think that could get them into the story. (41:57) Todd – I don’t care for the term “Spouse of the Holy Spirit”. This doesn't seem to be scripturally based title for Our Lady or based in Catholic doctrine. (44:43)

Through playful training for children and adults, participants challenge limiting beliefs, expand perception, and discover new possibilities for education, family life, wellness, personal transformation, and growth...

Two Women Inspiring Real Life with Stephanie Coxon and Kathy Anderson-Martin – It's especially troubling when these activities happen in the school; the adult is a teacher, and the administration is seemingly more interested in public relations and media attention than mandated reporting and follow-through. Often, the children most impacted by adult predators are also the ones most vulnerable...

Send us Fan MailABA on Tap is proud to sit down with Lupe Castañeda (Part 2 of 2):You can have the best behavior plan in the world and still fail if the classroom doesn't trust you. Mike and Dan pick up part two with Lupe Castaneda, and get practical about school-based ABA, BCBA leadership in schools, and the messy middle where collaboration meets real-world constraints. We talk through what it looks like when we're “not the experts” in the family system or the classroom environment, yet we're brought in because something is already going wrong, and the people in the room may not want change.From there, we get into the hard stuff most people won't say out loud: school politics, predetermined placement decisions, and how to protect your staff when they're doing great work but still getting nitpicked. Lupe shares how he approaches teacher buy-in by building rapport, talking with paraprofessionals, and living the principle of “show me, don't tell me” rather than being the BCBA in the corner with a laptop. We also explore supervision and mentorship strategies that improve retention, including bi-directional feedback, coaching, and shaping performance instead of punishing mistakes.We then zoom into tactics for bridging 1:1 ABA into group instruction: small-group DTT, instructional pacing, short learning sprints, contextual fit, and preparing students for natural environments. Along the way we unpack clinical judgment, crisis prevention, and why it matters to teach teams how to think on the fly, especially when the difference between an extinction burst and failed treatment is not obvious to educators. We wrap with burnout prevention, skill diversification, and why staying curious might be the most underrated career strategy in behavior analysis.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a school-based BCBA or teacher, and leave a review so more people can find the show. What's the biggest obstacle you hit when trying to collaborate in schools?Tune in, drink up and ALWAYS ANALYZE RESPONSIBLY.Support the show

This Week: The Romeo Community School District in Michigan has issued educators a list of 32 phrases that are pre approved for us on classroom posters. The phrases are, perhaps excruciatingly, unoffensive. Classics like: be yourself, you belong here, you matter, and lift others up, make the list. But, not coincidentally, absent from the list are any phrases making note of any identity markers, or that have become synonymous with movements for LGBTQ visibility in schools. The district claims this policy, which would require teachers to go through 4 layers of committee and district approval before using other language on posters, is about consistency across classrooms and ensuring “political” content doesn't take away from the approved curriculum. Parents and teachers know better. Also, new data shows there has been a massive drop in perceptions of confidence in American colleges and universities. What does this data mean? Where is it coming from? And where do we go from here? Manuel and Jeff discuss!  All of the Above was named #30 on the Best 100 Education Podcasts in the US by MillionPodcasts.com.

When Alex Campbell set out to teach sociology through true crime, he wasn't trying to catch a murderer. He was trying to make the stakes real. Nine years later, his high school students in Appalachia have restored names to victims of the "redheaded murders," helped families, and become the subject of a limited series with a perfect critic score. But as Alex tells it, the thing that mattered most was never on the syllabus: how much his students came to care. In this conversation, Alex and Tricia dig into what it actually takes to hand young people a real problem — and why that's the whole point. In this episode: Why sociology and murder aren't apples and oranges — and how high stakes bring out the best in students The surprise Alex didn't plan for: students connecting with victims who died decades before they were born Schools as "the institution best at separating people" — and how project-based learning breaks down the walls His three-part test for a real project: passion-driven, community-focused, interdisciplinary Practical, permission-giving advice for teachers who find this exciting and scary — start small, start with a partner, use the resources that already exist "You don't work for me": how buy-in reframes classroom management and reaches the students who've stopped believing in school's promises Civics you can feel — freedom-of-information requests, and why John Benet Ramsey has a thousand websites and Lori Pennell had almost none The creative gamble behind the series: victim-forward, not offender-forward, and a true-crime story that doesn't end tied up in a bow Portraying Appalachia and teenagers with authenticity instead of stereotype Using the series for professional development — what to watch for, and why it might matter more than you'd expect Building a house, powerlifting, and teaching yourself: Alex on learning as a lifelong series of real problems to solve   Watch: Murder 101 is streaming now.

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Agree or disagree: Schools need less technology and more pencils and books." Michael examines the growing backlash against classroom technology, inspired by neuroscientist Dr. Jared Horvath's bestselling book "The Digital Delusion" (hear that interview on The Book Club with Michael Smerconish Podcast!). Has America's decades-long experiment with laptops and tablets in the classroom undermined reading comprehension and academic performance, or are critics confusing correlation with causation? Michael explores the evidence, the sharp decline in student achievement, international trends like Sweden's return to printed textbooks, and why even supporters of educational technology are questioning whether schools have gone too far.

Anchor Chat #32: The Middle MattersIn this episode, Dr. Woods challenges educators to rethink where they focus their attention by highlighting a group of students who often go unnoticed—the ones in the middle. While schools naturally devote time and resources to students who are struggling and those who are excelling, there is tremendous potential among students who are quietly meeting expectations but may not be reaching their full potential. Dr. Woods explores how intentional instruction, meaningful challenges, and a focus on growth can help these students move beyond simply being "on track" to truly thriving. This Anchor Chat encourages educators to look beyond proficiency and ask a more important question: How can we help every student maximize their potential?

ACTS 3:13-26 - CHRIST WOULD SUFFER - BRIAN SUMNER - 2026ACTS 3:13 "The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go. 14 But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, 15 and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses. 16 And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.17 “Yet now, brethren, I know that you did it in ignorance, as did also your rulers. 18 But those things which God foretold by the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled. 19 Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, 20 and that He may send Jesus Christ, who was preached to you before, 21 whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began. 22 For Moses truly said to the fathers, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear in all things, whatever He says to you. 23 And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.' 24 Yes, and all the prophets, from Samuel and those who follow, as many as have spoken, have also foretold these days. 25 You are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘And in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.' 26 To you first, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.”To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY. Since coming to faith in 2004 doors continued opening locally and internationally to do more and more ministry with a focus on Evangelism, Outreach Missions, Marriage, Counsel, Schools, Festivals, Conferences and the like.  Everything about this ministry is made possible because of people personally partnering through the non profit. God Bless and thank you. †Support the showSUPPORT THE SHOW

Seth questions the emphasis on teaching critical theory and social justice in medical schools, and expresses concern that medical schools are deviating from their core purpose of teaching medical professionals to diagnose and treat patients. Instead, they're focusing on topics like colonialism, critical theory, and social justice. Producer David Doll talks about his latest culinary creation. Violence on the Left. We’re joined by Don Spini from Sun Valley Wealth. Happy Bastille Day from the Seth Leibsohn Show.

Hour 1 of The Marc Cox Morning Show comes out swinging on a Wednesday morning. It opens with the latest on Irans escalating conflict and the ICE body camera controversy, exposing how Democrats stalled funding while blaming agents in the media. From there, Chris Rufos bombshell reporting reveals woke activists hijacking the Smithsonians American history museum ahead of Americas 250th birthday, twisting the founding into a tale of shame instead of pride. Kim on a Whim digs into a jaw-dropping House hearing where a UCSF medical school chancellor cant say whether a non-biological woman can have a baby, exposing just how far DEI ideology has infiltrated medical education. And the hour wraps with a Chilis server fired for refusing to call a coworker by a made-up name, a story that has conservative America saying enough is enough. Family, faith, freedom, and common sense — thats the hour on The Marc Cox Morning Show.

Congresswoman Mary Miller returns to the show to expand on her viral hearing exchange, declaring that medical schools abandoning basic scientific truth for DEI ideology should lose their accreditation entirely. She confirms the Smithsonian is being restored under the Trump administration after reports of pride flags replacing American flags in exhibits, and updates listeners on House Republicans pushing to get the SAVE Act, requiring voter ID, through a resistant Senate. Miller doesn't hold back, calling out Democrats for demanding photo ID to attend their own events while fighting it at the ballot box. Truth, accountability, and election integrity — that's Congresswoman Mary Miller on The Marc Cox Morning Show.

On this Wednesday, July 15th edition of The Marc Cox Morning Show, the crew tackles it all — from the escalating standoff with Iran and the Strait of Hormuz blockade, to a jaw-dropping House hearing where a UCSF medical school chancellor couldn't confirm whether a non-biological woman can have a baby. Congresswoman Mary Miller joins twice to demand accountability from woke medical schools and push the Senate to pass the SAVE Act, while Heritage Foundations Andrew Harding breaks down the military and diplomatic chess match with Tehran. Locally, St. Charles County elections candidate Jen Olson fires back at a politically motivated smear campaign, Governor Kehoe signs the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act into law, and Megan Green cashes in a controversial taxpayer settlement. Business coverage brings the best inflation report in six years courtesy of Fox Business's Taylor Riggs, plus a tragic boat sinking near Alcatraz, a Chilis employee fired over a name dispute, and Joe Bidens rambling memoir announcement rounding out the laughs. Faith, family, freedom, and common sense — that's another full show in the books on The Marc Cox Morning Show.

Should Christians celebrate the Bible being taught in public schools? Todd explains why what seems like a win for Christianity may not be what it appears while exploring declining birth rates, cultural Christianity, and what it really takes to change a nation. Segment 1 • Why do Pride parades so often revolve around public displays of sexuality? • Can you judge a religion by the kind of culture it produces? Todd compares Christianity and Hinduism. • An Irish teacher spent nearly two years in prison over preferred pronouns. What does his case reveal about religious freedom? • Should Christian schools accept government funding if it means compromising biblical convictions? Segment 2 • Why are fewer young people getting married and having children? • Are social media, celebrity culture, and pornography reshaping an entire generation's view of family? • Does God's design for marriage and parenthood actually lead to greater joy and fulfillment? • What are young adults giving up when they delay marriage and parenthood? Segment 3 • Why doesn't Todd want the Bible taught in public schools? • Is teaching Scripture as literature actually diminishing its true purpose? • Can Christian values change a nation without changing hearts? • Why is cultural Christianity becoming increasingly attractive to conservatives? Segment 4 • Can a nation become "Christian" without people becoming Christians? • Should the church focus on changing culture—or making disciples? • What can we learn from the early church's response to a pagan culture? • Could our expectations for transforming society be aimed at the wrong target? ___ Thanks for listening!

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (7.13) A nasty SoCal heatwave is rolling in with sky-high humidity — we’re all sweating balls out here! Wildfires have sparked but firefighters are working hard on containment. Paris Hilton is back in the news as an advocate fighting to shut down the brutal Provo, Utah boarding school she attended as a teen, though we can’t help missing the old “Simple Life” Paris from the aughts. There’s a vegetation fire called the Zebra Fire burning in Azusa north of the 210, and don’t forget the shirtless nut in East Hollywood who jumped on a Waymo’s windshield, yelling at the sensors and ripping the car apart. In Boyle Heights, residents are dealing with an unbearable rotten stench, flies, and rodents thanks to the 85 million pounds of food rotting at the burned Linear Logistics warehouse, plus a burst water main leaving people without water nearby. On a slightly better note, two corpse flowers are about to bloom at the Huntington Library — those things only flower for 24–48 hours every few years and smell exactly as bad as the name suggests. In celebrity news, comedian Tom Segura and his wife Christina Pazsitzky announced they’re divorcing but will keep doing their podcast “Your Mom’s House” together (that should go smoothly!), while Brad Pitt’s kids Zahara and Maddox took out newspaper ads announcing they’re dropping “Pitt” and keeping “Jolie.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Building a tutoring nonprofit that now serves 25,000 students a year — with a vision to reach millions — required someone who'd lived the exact gap she was trying to close. Aly Murray grew up a low-income student raised by a single immigrant mother, moved through a string of Title 1 schools, and felt firsthand what it's like to navigate homework and college applications without support at home. She left a trading job at JP Morgan eight years ago to build Upchieve, a nonprofit offering free, 24/7 human tutoring and college counseling to every Title 1 middle and high school student in the country. Her work is backed by a Gates Foundation-funded study comparing human and AI tutoring, and Upchieve now partners with schools, districts, and CMOs at a cost of about 50 cents per tutoring session. Most school tutoring programs run from 3 to 5pm — and that single design choice quietly locks out the students who need help the most. Aly Murray, founder of the nonprofit Upchieve, built a 24/7 human tutoring program instead, and the data on why AI can't replace it yet might surprise you.

In many schools today, students hesitate to give class presentations. Not because of stage fright, but because they're afraid of being secretly recorded and mocked on social media. Principals across the country are spending their time managing the aftermath of incidents sparked by viral trends like "Ship or Dip" posts. Physical altercations between students are often filmed by bystanders and shared online, amplifying the harm. In this episode, Dr. Ruston visits a middle school in Washington State and sits down with Principal Zach to explore what happened when phones were allowed on campus and how things changed dramatically once new policies were put in place. Zach shares the powerful transformation his school has experienced, and how restorative practices are helping students learn healthier ways to resolve conflict.

Allie is joined by Joel Penton, the founder and CEO of LifeWise Academy. LifeWise is a nonprofit organization that provides Bible education to public-school students. However, some schools are cracking down on LifeWise while permitting progressive initiatives in the classroom, like Pride Month. The Bible was removed from public schools in 1963; however, a Supreme Court ruling in 1952 allows released time for religious instruction. LifeWise takes students off campus for biblical instruction and walks them through the entire Bible in five years. LifeWise reaches 100,000 students across 34 states in over 1,100 schools, with parental permission and zero government funding. Anxiety and depression are rising among young Americans, and Joel is fighting to reach kids with the only solution: the truth and hope of Jesus Christ.
