Today we’re talking to Jill Heinerth – a world-renowned underwater explorer, filmmaker, author, and an accomplished cave diver. As an Explorer-in-Residence with the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, Jill has ventured into places no human has ever seen: iceberg caves in Antarctica, volcanic lava tubes beneath the ocean, and some of the planet’s deepest, most dangerous underwater caverns. She’s not only an explorer, but also a storyteller, a scientist, and a passionate environmental advocate. She’s a trailblazer for women in extreme, traditionally male-dominated fields. In this episode, we dive into Jill’s courage, what it takes to defy expectations, and the challenges women continue to face in exploration and STEM. And, of course, we explore the power of curiosity, resilience, and following the pull toward the unknown.

Send us a textIn this episode of Practical Access, Lisa Dieker and Rebecca Hines focus on providing science and math tools for teachers working with students of all abilities. They highlight the importance of making abstract concepts like data and computation more engaging and accessible. The discussion features practical, research-backed resources such as the PhET simulations, which have been federally funded and classroom tested for years. The episode is filled with tangible recommendations to help educators bring energy, clarity, and creativity into STEM instruction. Key insights include:Use of Interactive Tools: Teachers can boost student engagement by integrating interactive digital platforms like PhET simulations to make science and math more visual and hands on.Accessibility through Flexibility: Flexibility in how content is delivered allows students to access science and math in ways that fit their learning style and pace.Emphasizing Conceptual Understanding: Focus should be placed on helping students grasp the why behind formulas and data rather than just memorizing steps or vocabulary.Positive Framing Matters: Teachers should model confidence and curiosity in STEM content. Avoid self limiting statements like I am not a math person in front of students.Start with What Works: Tap into free and research validated tools already available rather than reinventing the wheel. Resources that are time tested can save teachers energy and improve outcomes.We love to hear from our listeners! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

Want a candid look at how women build durable careers in one of the world's toughest industries? We sit down with three semiconductor leaders - Nitza Bosoco, Anne Meixner and Julia Freer - who share how early encouragement, gritty problem solving, and clear communication turned curiosity into impact. From summer jobs at national labs and early days at IBM to leading operations, test, and sustainability initiatives, their stories show why diverse voices aren't just nice to have—they're a competitive advantage.We dig into the real moments: being the only woman in a test engineering group, pushing for inclusive language that actually changes culture, and navigating career pivots to balance family, flexibility, and ambition. You'll hear how mentorship and sponsorship differ—and why you need both—plus specific tactics to make them work inside fast-moving chip companies. One unforgettable segment starts with a five-minute crash-and-burn presentation and becomes a two-year, teamwide communication overhaul that turns shy engineers into confident presenters ready for conferences and boardrooms.Across materials science, advanced packaging, test and inspection, and sustainability, the thread is clear: communication is a core engineering skill. Writing reflective status reports, designing slides for decisions, and telling a tight technical story can accelerate yield improvements, align manufacturing and supply chain, and win executive support. We also tackle today's DEI headwinds with a practical lens—keep the pipeline alive, promote from within, and build programs that outlast policy shifts. The conversation closes with why their new book matters: ordinary, relatable role models who show many valid paths into STEM and semiconductors.Learn more about the book, Empowering Women in STEM. TeradyneTeradyne test solutions for semiconductors lets customers consistently meet their quality standards.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Wat is de schepping?De schepping is de som van al Gods Gedachten, oneindig in getal en overal totaal zonder beperkingen. Alleen liefde schept, en alleen als zichzelf. Er is geen tijd geweest waarin al wat zij geschapen heeft er niet was. Noch zal er een tijd zijn waarin wat zij ook schiep enig verlies lijdt. Voor eeuwig en altijd zijn Gods Gedachten precies zoals ze waren en zoals ze zijn, onveranderd door de tijd heen en nadat de tijd voorbij is.Aan Gods Gedachten is alle macht gegeven die hun eigen Schepper heeft. Want Hij wil aan liefde toevoegen door haar uit te breiden. Zo heeft Zijn Zoon deel aan de schepping en moet hij daarom delen in de macht om te scheppen. Wat God gewild heeft dat voor eeuwig Eén is zal nog Eén zijn wanneer de tijd is gedaan; en het zal door de loop der tijden niet worden veranderd, en blijven zoals het was voor de gedachte aan tijd begon.De schepping is het tegendeel van alle illusies, want de schepping is de waarheid. De schepping is de heilige Zoon van God, want in de schepping is Zijn Wil in ieder aspect compleet, ervoor zorgend dat elk deel het geheel bevat. Haar eenheid is voor eeuwig als onschendbaar gewaarborgd, blijft eeuwig in Zijn heilige Wil bewaard, buiten elke mogelijkheid tot schade, scheiding, onvolmaaktheid, en buiten enige smet op haar zondeloosheid.Wij zijn de schepping, wij de Zonen van God. We lijken elk apart te zijn en ons niet bewust van onze eeuwige eenheid met Hem. Maar achter al onze twijfels, voorbij al onze angsten is nog altijd zekerheid. Want liefde blijft bij al haar Gedachten, terwijl haar zekerheid de hunne is. De Godsherinnering is in onze heilige denkgeest, die zijn eenheid en verbondenheid met zijn Schepper kent. Laat onze functie erin bestaan alleen deze herinnering terug te doen keren, alleen Gods Wil op aarde te laten geschieden, alleen onze innerlijke gezondheid weer terug te vinden en slechts te zijn zoals God ons geschapen heeft.Onze Vader roept ons. We horen Zijn Stem en we vergeven de schepping in de Naam van haar Schepper, de Heiligheid zelf, wiens Heiligheid gedeeld wordt door Zijn eigen schepping, wiens Heiligheid nog altijd deel is van ons.LES 324Ik volg slechts, want ik wil niet de leiding.Vader, U bent Degene die mij het plan voor mijn verlossing hebt gegeven. U hebt de weg bepaald die ik heb te gaan, de rol die ik op me heb te nemen en elke stap op het mij aangewezen pad. Ik kan de weg niet kwijtraken. Ik kan er slechts voor kiezen een tijdje af te dwalen, om dan terug te keren. Uw liefderijke Stem zal me altijd terugroepen en mijn voeten de goede kant op leiden. Mijn broeders kunnen allen de weg volgen die ik hun voorga. Maar ik volg slechts op de weg naar U toe, zoals U die mij wijst en wil laten gaan.Laten we dus Iemand volgen die de weg kent. We hoeven niet te talmen en we kunnen niet afdwalen van Zijn liefdevolle Hand voor langer dan een ogenblik. We gaan samen onze weg, want we volgen Hem. En Hij is het die de afloop zeker stelt en een veilige thuiskomst waarborgt.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl

Episode 82: The New Dream SchoolsWith Jeff SelingoAvailable November 18, 2025What is a “Dream School?” Almost since the college admissions process began, students have had ideas about where they dream they'll end up after high school, and increasingly, those “dream schools” have existed on a very short list of what we think of as prestigious, name-brand institutions. But what if we're wrong about that list? What if everything we think we know about the factors that make a college great has been misguided? Higher education expert Jeff Selingo joins host Debra Wilson for a frank discussion of what needs to change in our approach to college admissions, and his new book, Dream School.Guest: Jeff SelingoResources, Transcript, and Expanded Show NotesIn This Episode:“I want to bring back some normalcy to high school so that not everything is about, not everything you do is about getting into college and into the right college, that you're doing things because you want to challenge yourself. You enjoy them, you want to try new things out…There's so much pressure around me to apply to a certain set of schools, and I wanna change that conversation.” (6:08)“The November 1 deadlines, the October 15th deadlines now, even earlier deadlines, has just moved up the entire college search process now really into the junior year. And then now what used to happen in the junior year is happening in the sophomore year. So you're not even getting through half of high school without really thinking about college.” (11:33)“I mean, the big unknown here, Debra, is the role of AI in the job market. What are the jobs of the future really going to be and what are they going to need? What are the skill sets they're going to need? It was pretty certain over the last 10 years that we've seen, one of the reasons why liberal arts colleges have kind of gone out of favor is because we've seen a huge shift in majors to the business and STEM because parents thought that's where the jobs were…Now parents are asking, huh, what is the, now what's the next major? And by the way, maybe this brings the liberal arts back into vogue and maybe the liberal arts institutions with their ability to have a mix of problem solving and communication and critical thinking and bring in hands-on learning to that, that might bring them back in a way that we didn't quite expect.” (34:14)Related Episodes: 76; 74; 63; 44; 36; 29; 22 Hosted on Acast.

Balanced Euphoria is a deep, groove-driven, late-night soundtrack designed to bring the room from peak intensity into pure after-hours flow. Spanning just over two hours, this mix is my first set built 100% from STEM files, meaning not a single track is played in its original form. Every moment is reconstructed, re-layered, or re-imagined. Across four decks, the set drifts between smooth transitions, hypnotic rhythms, and melodic textures. Roughly 40% is mixed on all four decks, 50% on three decks, and the remaining 10% on two, giving this mix a constantly shifting, evolving feel. Expect subtle grooves, rolling basslines, and carefully balanced energy — the kind of set I'd play in the final hours of a long night, when the dance floor wants to move but also float. Perfect for late-night drives, creative focus, or anyone who loves progressive, melodic, and atmospheric dance music with intention. As always, here is the track listing....BUT, they may not be in the exact order.  Most of the tracks have STEMs from being used throughout the set, and layered with others, so yoiun will not hear any original segment of a track by itself.   Let the journey unfold.     Artist Title Argia Stella The Chemical Brothers Feels Like I Am Dreaming Kupon Zoom In (Original_Mix) Kollektiv Turmstrasse Sorry I Am Late (Extended) YOZZ The Galaxy (Extended Mix) Yannick Mueller Cobra WhoMadeWho Never Alone (Patrice Bäumel Remix) Yannick Mueller Cuatro JFR Jane Watch The Stars Cassius The Sound Of Violence (Antony Toga Background DiscoVox Version) EANP Hypersonic (Original Mix) Lloyd Barwood Chain of Thoughts Emanuel Satie Resilience (Andhim Remix) Argia Attagirl (Allai's Her Pimp Hand Strong Edit Select) Kölsch Der Alte New Order Temptation (Allai's Quantum Remix) Guztavo PT & Mike Fuentez & Carmen Amaka Let You Go Glass Animals Tear in Space (Allai's Edit Select)  

President Donald Trump van Amerika sê hy sal ʼn wetsontwerp dat die Justisiedepartement die Epstein-lêers bekendmaak, onderteken as dit op sy lessenaar beland. Die Huis van Verteenwoordigers stem na verwagting vandag vir die vrystelling daarvan. Demokrate in die Huis het verlede week e-posse van die Epstein-boedel bekendgemaak waarin Trump se naam genoem word. Trump sê sy administrasie het Huis-komitees reeds tienduisende dokumente gegee en herhaal dat die Epstein-kwessie ʼn klug is:

Die Verenigde Nasies se Veiligheidsraad het ʼn resolusie deur Amerika aanvaar, wat ʼn vredesplan vir Gaza en ʼn tydelike internasionale mag in die gebied goedkeur. Dertien lande, insluitend Frankryk, die Verenigde Koninkryk en Somalië, het die resolusie gesteun terwyl Rusland en China buite stemming gebly het. Die resolusie se doel is om internasionale legitimiteit te verleen aan president Donald Trump van Amerika se 20-punt Gaza-plan.

Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless TD, has announced funding of over €3.5 million for 16 research projects under Research Ireland's COALESCE (Collaborative Alliances for Societal Challenges) 2025 programme. COALESCE supports excellent, interdisciplinary research that addresses national and global societal challenges by fostering collaboration between researchers and policymakers, civil society, and enterprise. Announcing the awards, Minister Lawless said: "Harnessing the power of research is key to tackling the most pressing challenges facing our society. These awards are not just about academic excellence - they are about delivering real, tangible benefits for people and communities. Whether it's supporting survivors of gender-based violence, driving climate action, or safeguarding our cultural heritage, these projects will make a meaningful difference. This is research with purpose, and I commend all the awardees for their dedication to the public good." Dr Diarmuid O'Brien, CEO of Research Ireland, commented: "The projects being announced today bring together diverse disciplines, communities, and policy partners to co-create knowledge that matters. We are proud to support projects that amplify underrepresented voices and tackle issues that are often overlooked. These research projects are advancing knowledge, sustainability, justice, and inclusion." Two of the projects are funded by Cuan: The Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV) Agency, under a newly-launched strategic strand. Dr Stephanie O'Keeffe, Cuan CEO, stated: "Cuan is delighted to partner with Research Ireland to establish a new research funding strand for COALESCE 2025, dedicated to Domestic Sexual and Gender-Based Violence research. A key objective for Cuan is to strengthen the existing knowledge base and build an evidence-informed response to domestic, sexual and gender-based violence, informed by the lived experience of victim-survivors. In this regard, the creation of this important research strand is of great significance to Cuan. "Given so many academic disciplines are of relevance to the study of domestic and sexual violence, Research Ireland's COALESCE funding strand provides a rich opportunity to support action and policy-oriented research, providing much-needed insights for policy makers and practitioners, and improving outcomes for victims and survivors." Funded projects include: Lived Realities: The first Irish study to explore the lived experiences of victim-survivors in sexual offence trials, aiming to inform future legal reforms (Dr Susan Leahy, University of Limerick) - funded by Cuan. Faith-Inclusive and Culturally Competent Responses to Domestic, Sexual, and Gender-Based Violence (DSGBV): Addressing Systemic Barriers for Muslim Women in Ireland (FATIHA) (Prof. Roja Fazaeli, University of Galway) - funded by Cuan Canúint.ie: Developing a digital platform to preserve and share Ireland's regional Irish dialects through searchable audio archives (Dr Úna Bhreathnach and Prof. Tomás Ward, Dublin City University).

Panama City, Panama - 29th October to 1st November - Team Ireland has achieved an outstanding result at the 2025 FIRST Global Challenge, placing 8th in the world, the highest ever finish for Ireland. The event, held this year in Panama City, brought together the brightest young minds in robotics, engineering, and innovation to tackle real-world problems through technology and teamwork. The FIRST Global Challenge is an international robotics competition that aims to inspire science and technology leadership and innovation among youth worldwide. Each year, FIRST Global invites every country to send a team to design and build a robot to compete. Teams collaborate to complete challenges in a game designed around solving some of the world's biggest issues. This year's theme focuses on biodiversity loss and the ways we can work to prevent it. The competition aims to inspire global cooperation and understanding among young people as they use their skills and creativity to tackle real-world problems. FIRST Global Challenge Robotics Competition 2025 Representing Ireland, the team demonstrated exceptional creativity, technical skill, and collaboration throughout the competition. The 8th place finish, Ireland's highest ever ranking, was accompanied by 2 further awards, The Video storytelling award, and The Social Media award. This high finish allowed them to advance onto the play-off stage of the competition, where only teams of the highest quality compete. For each match, teams were grouped into alliances of 3 V 3 with alliances changing for every match. It was a test of technology and problem solving, communication across language barriers, and the ability to form new strategies each time. Although all countries started with the same kit, each resulting robot was unique - every country's robot had its own strengths and weaknesses and this required students to collaborate continuously and adapt their strategy as they were allied with country after country - in order to optimise their success in every match. "We're incredibly proud of Team Ireland's success on the world stage," said mentor Pawel Zielinski. "This achievement reflects the team's dedication, creativity, and collaboration over the past few months. It showcases the remarkable talent of young people in Ireland and offers great optimism for the future and what they can achieve." The competition not only highlighted Ireland's growing talent in robotics and engineering but also emphasized the importance of international collaboration and STEM education for solving future challenges. More info about FIRST Global and the World Robotics Competition: FIRST Global is a US charity founded by inventor and innovator Dean Kamen and it strives to convince the various national governments and organizations of the world to embrace STEM education, invest in FIRST programs, and support their young adults. The aim is to nurture cross-cultural communication and cooperation among high-school students around the world through STEM. In doing so students are empowered to collectively tackle the world's most pressing challenges and come up with solutions that improve quality of life for all. The FIRST Global Challenge is the mechanism for doing so. By bringing future STEM leaders together in an engaging and collaborative competition that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEM education, FIRST Global is using robots and technology challenges to build young adults that have the self-confidence, skill sets, imagination, courage, and vision to do important things. This year's theme challenged FIRST Global teams of students from around the world to collaboratively innovate to maximize biodiversity and protect the incredible variety of life that sustains us all. From rainforests to coral reefs, the health of us and our planet depends on it!

With new data from the National Academy of Sciences, it dismantles the myth that the U.S. lacks skilled STEM talent—showing that American students outperform their foreign counterparts across the board. What's really driving the visa surge, the commentary argues, isn't superior talent from abroad but cheaper, tightly controlled labor through what amounts to modern-day indentured servitude. From Fox News' sudden populist streak to real-world stories—like an American Amazon hire surrounded entirely by H-1B workers—this breakdown exposes how big business, politicians, and the visa system create a rigged market that sidelines U.S. graduates while pretending it's all about “innovation.

Tara breaks down the hidden truths behind the H-1B visa system and how it's impacting young Americans. With unemployment among 20- to 24-year-olds at 9.2%, entry-level white-collar STEM jobs are being filled by visa holders willing to work 10–50% below median U.S. pay—often for a guaranteed pathway to citizenship. Tara exposes how companies exploit this system, effectively chaining foreign workers to their desks for years while displacing talented American graduates. She also critiques recent political missteps, highlighting how these policies could alienate an entire generation of voters and empower the opposition.

Tara dives deep into the biggest threats to American workers and the next generation. From massive welfare fraud across multiple states to H-1B visa exploitation that displaces young Americans from STEM jobs, this episode exposes the hidden forces shaping the economy and politics. Tara discusses the consequences of illegal immigration, corporate manipulation, and government mismanagement on housing, wages, and employment, while highlighting how recent policy changes and enforcement efforts are reshaping the landscape. She also addresses political hoaxes and media manipulation, revealing how transparency and accountability are finally challenging the status quo.

Tara dives deep into the escalating crisis facing America's young generation — from crushing unemployment among recent graduates to the H-1B visa system undermining U.S. wages. With a staggering 9.2% unemployment rate for 20–24-year-olds and foreign workers taking entry-level STEM and white-collar positions at 10–50% lower pay, America's youth are being shut out of the jobs they earned. Tara explains how Trump's H-1B remarks and mixed messaging have created a political vacuum, with young voters flirting with socialism and radical alternatives. She also exposes how foreign student visas and radical campus movements threaten national security, showing why accountability, reform, and prioritizing American workers are more urgent than ever.
