Canada faces an uphill battle to recoup the roughly C$35 billion ($25.74 billion) in taxpayers' money it has sunk into the Trans Mountain oil pipeline, as uncertainty over shipping tolls and a limited pool of buyers cloud the asset's unique strategic value.

We learn how the group first came together around Steve's online courses and peerScholar, a learning product that Steve developed that Atef discovered while teaching educational technology at Hashemite University in Jordan, From there, things rapidly shifted with the onset of the pandemic in 2020, leading the group to partner on the paper describing how to design learning experiences that leverage asynchronous instruction, synchronous collaboration, and peer-to-peer assessment to enable the resilience, flexibility, and social emotional skill development students need in these challenging times. We get insight from a broad cross-section of the global learning landscape with Atef and Irameet providing their perspectives from Jordan and India respectively to round out the work Steve and Irameet have doing at the University of Toronto in Canada. It's a wide=ranging and informative dive into how to avoid snapping back into old ways of course design that can and should be transformed due to the challenges and awakenings of recent years.

The Hamilton Today Podcast... The Bulldogs' winning streak continued last night when they took on the Missisauga Steelheads and they're looking to keep it rolling. The U.S. says it shared intelligence with Ukraine about the location of the Russian missile cruiser, Moskva, prior to the strike that sank the warship, an incident that was a high-profile failure for Russia's military but an American official said that the strike was Ukraine's decision alone. This Sunday May 8, Ukrainian virtuoso musician Vasyl Popadiuk will perform at The Zoetic Performing Arts Theatre as part of an event to help support Ukrainian families. Last night the Westdale Theatre held a special event, Hamilton Helps Ukraine. All of the proceeds from the evening of music, film, and conversation went to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation and its humanitarian efforts in Ukraine. Our own Diana Weeks was in attendance. Last night, the Conservative leadership debate was held with a lot of focus put on the sparring match between Jean Charest & Pierre Poilievre while Patrick Brown was absent altogether. Changing the way we talk about mental illness – not just that we talk about it more openly but the language that we use. Naomi Judd was said to have lost her battle with mental illness when we learned of her death. Does the way we talk about it and frame it affect us? 1-3 Canadians are willing to change jobs just to work from home.

Dr. Steve Joordens returns to join Mike Palmer in a conversation about the connections between growth mindset and feedback. If growth mindset is the "What," getting good at giving and receiving feedback is the "How" of learning and personal growth. Steve draws on his experiences as a Psychology Professor and Director of the Advanced Learning Technologies Lab at the University of Toronto and as a Founder and CoDeveloper of an app called peerScholar that has students engage in collaborative, peer-to-peer feedback that can be used as a formative assessment. We give praise and respect to the great work of Carol Dweck on the subject before providing a more detailed walkthrough of how effective, scalable feedback sessions ultimately benefit students and faculty alike. Getting good at seeking out, delivering, and receiving feedback is a critical skill set today and increasingly in conceptions of the workplace of tomorrow. We dive into the criticality of feedback, why it's hard, and how to make it safer and easier to get better at it in a free-flowing and informative conversation.

Steve posits that the powerful forces of humans’ desire for social connection paired with our deeply entrained habits from prior to the pandemic will lead us to a quick snapback to many of the behavior patterns we had adopted prior. We explore the opportunities institutions and individuals have to change those habits, but it will require focused, intentional actions as restrictions are lifted to lock in and establish new and improved patterns on the other side.
