The Department of Education has had over 40 years to prove its worth, yet student achievement continues to decline while bureaucracy grows. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano debunks the fearmongering surrounding its potential elimination and exposes who truly benefits from the status quo. He breaks down how education can be reformed to focus on students, not bureaucrats, and why returning power to parents and local communities is essential. It's time for a real conversation about fixing our failing education system—because the future of our children depends on it. Episode Highlights: • Debunking the fearmongering – What the Department of Education actually does vs. what critics claim. • Who benefits from the status quo? – The role of teachers' unions, bureaucrats, and activist agendas. • Real education reform – How to create a student-focused system that prioritizes learning over politics.

It's been nearly five years since the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted learning for children. New data known as the Nation's Report Card shows that across the nation, fourth and eighth graders in 2024 still performed below pre-pandemic levels. That's also true for Minnesota. Across the state, students' test scores did not significantly change from two years prior. The last time the test was conducted in 2022, students around the country showed steep learning losses from the pandemic. Many experts had hoped to see students rebounding from some of those losses in 2024. The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), which provides data for the Nation's Report Card, is mandated by Congress and is the largest nationally-representative test of student learning. The assessments in math and reading are given every two years to a broad sample of students in fourth and eighth grade.For more on these results and what they might mean for Minnesota's students, MPR News host Nina Moini talks with Julio Caésar, executive director or research, evaluation and assessment for Bloomington Public Schools.
In this episode of the Learning Can't Wait podcast, host Hayley Spira-Bauer welcomes back Dr. Kelsey Young, Associate Director of Research Insights and Analytics at Curriculum Associates. Together, they dive into the latest research reports released by Curriculum Associates, including data from i-Ready that reveals significant insights into student academic performance post-pandemic. Dr. Young discusses the ongoing challenges of student recovery, highlighting that many students are still not performing at pre-pandemic levels, with younger students being disproportionately affected. The conversation explores the national implications of these findings, the emotional toll on educators, and the need for continued intervention, despite funding challenges. Dr. Young emphasizes the importance of targeted interventions, such as phonics-based reading instruction and high-dosage tutoring, and shares the nuanced data about how specific subpopulations, especially vulnerable students, have been impacted. As they dissect the complexities of educational recovery, they also offer practical advice for school leaders and educators on how to use this data to make informed decisions moving forward. Tune in to hear Dr. Young's expert perspective on what schools and policymakers can do to address the gaps and continue to support student learning, even in the face of limited resources.

#144What do you do with the information that you learn from the assessments that you give students? Even if we are talking about end–of-unit summative assessments we should look at the overall results and see if there are any changes we should make to instruction. This is our own consistent way of doing action research in our classrooms. In this episode, Wyatt Crane, a Spanish teacher in New York City, joins me to talk us through how he uses data from assessments (both formative and summative) to determine what is effective and what he may need to modify in his classroom teaching.Topics In This Episode:how Wyatt collects and analyzes student performance data in his language classroomthe tools and methods Wyatt finds most effective for this processhow student performance data influences Wyatt's instructional decisions and lesson planningexamples of when data prompted Wyatt to adjust his teachinghow to ensure that student performance data is used not just for assessment purposes, but also for fostering student growth and learninghow to tailor approaches to data analysis and interpretation to meet the individual needs of studentsConnect with Wyatt Crane:Twitter/X : @ElSenorCrane Connect with Joshua and the World Language Classroom Community: wlclassrom.comX (aka Twitter): @wlclassroomThreads: @wlclassroomInstagram: @wlclassroomFacebook: /wlclassroomWLClassroom Facebook Group__________________________Interested in having Joshua work directly with your department, school or district?

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.

September 11, 2023 - New York students appear to have regressed following the state's use of remote and hybrid learning during the pandemic, prompting the National Parents Union - a parental choice organization that bills itself as a countervailing force to teachers unions - to call for new accountability measures, increased access to high-impact tutoring, and a more comprehensive approach to teaching math and reading. We spoke with Ashara Baker, New York state director for the organization.
Thomas Newman is a highly accomplished sports performance expert with over a decade of experience in the industry. He has a proven track record of optimizing athlete development and achieving winning results on the field. Newman's expertise and leadership skills were honed during his tenure as Director of Student Performance and Innovation at Yale University, where he oversaw all varsity teams and successfully created the first-ever partnerships with the School of Engineering, Medicine, and Public Health. As a result of these collaborations, a comprehensive custom-built digital player profiling platform was created for all 32 varsity teams, which was instrumental in achieving tremendous on-field success. At the time of this recording, Thomas was working for Hawkins Dynamics, an industry leader using force plate technology to assess human movement and optimize it to the fullest.Force plates are tools used for the measurement of ground reaction forces during walking, jumping, or any other type of movement - they can be thought of as "fancy bathroom scales" as coined by Dr. Jason Lake, world leading biomechanist.Not only are force plates extremely effective in creating winning professional teams (like Thomas has done), but Thomas is also using force plates to help augment the human performance of tactical teams and even law enforcement. We get into this technology and how agencies or users could benefit to not only create winning teams, tease out what takes an athlete from good to great, and how to build a more resilient operator that is less prone to injury and more durable in the long run. We also talk about Thomas' huge health scare, recovering from a brain tumor, how he triumphed, and his foundation, 40 Staples Strong (https://40staplesstrong.com/) is making a difference from others suffering from this terrible condition.
In Michigan, local school district evaluations stated that there were only 165 teachers out of the 115,910 evaluated in 2021-22 that were found to be "inefficient." Statistically, that translated to 0%. In fact, 99% of all Michigan public school teachers last year were rated either as "highly efficient" or "efficient," the highest two of four evaluation categories. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michigan-in-focus/support
... and simple steps to help!You could argue positive results of context switching, especially if your brain naturally tends to jump steps in a process….. Hello gifted brains! But for the most part, multitasking has more negative results than positive because you're not fully focused on the task at hand. This means one task never gets the full creation process… just parts of it. Like only getting part of your amazon order and having to wait days for the rest. This mental effort can cost up to 40% of total productive time. This leaves only 60% or less for actually completing tasks. In terms of learning and developing, this means our students are wasting valuable brain energy just trying to understand what they are doing and how it should be done. So, what do we do? First, identify sources of context switching.Common sources include notifications, multiple open tabs or windows on a computer, or even being required to multitask. But, this doesn't just apply to technology. This can include hands-on tasks or activities.

As researchers study the success of students in active classrooms, they expose new questions to ask, they generate new data to analyze. These data put classrooms implementing active learning practices under the microscope. In looking closely at the details of implementation, researchers are now uncovering evidence of practices resulting in inequities, in some and perhaps most active learning environments. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Daniel Reinholz about his classroom observational analytical tool, EQUIP, and discuss how Daniel and his co-authors have used this tool to identify inequities in classrooms, inequities that may underlie differences in student performance. Fixing these inequities may not be hard, but one has to identify the problem first. EQUIP may be one tool we all need.
In today's episode, we speak with Pearce Miller, a culinary educator and entrepreneur, who is revolutionizing student-centric academic program models.Pearce has shaped the academic policy for several schools, improving retention and overall student performance. He has taught at the Pennsylvania Institute of Culinary Arts, served as the President of the Pennsylvania Culinary Institute, and filled the role of Vice President of Academics for Le Cordon Bleu.Listen as Pearce chats about developing new ways to connect with students in this new digital environment, hybrid education, and his personal teaching philosophy.
Standardized testing is a normal part of the school year, but what does this data really tell us about how children are performing? Today, Akilah Alleyne from the Center for American Progress, joins us to talk about standardized testing in local schools. Many families invest considerable time and money to make sure their student performs well on these college entrance exams, but several universities are doing away with requiring them for entry. Later, Scott Jaschik, Editor and Founder of Inside Higher Ed joins us to talk about this. First we talk to a Newtown CT resident about how the latest school shooting in Uvalde reignites the trauma felt by the community since 2012.

I've seen this a million times. A student's evaluation report shows average scores - maybe with a few relative weaknesses- but the student's performance in school is mediocre or worse. Missing assignments, disciplinary actions, and bad grades demonstrate that the student isn't meeting his or her apparent potential in school. Confidence wanes as the student becomes frustrated. Why does this happen? April Rehrig, advocate and licensed school psychologist, walks us through the reason this happens. More importantly, April spends lots of time helping us navigate what to do about it! How can we better assess students to make sure we understand how their disability will affect their school performance? What tests should you request, and more!!! you won't want to miss this super important episode!
Elementary school students educated primarily online during the pandemic are falling behind by as much as an entire letter grade, according to a study delivered by the National Bureau of Economic Research. Brown University Professor of Economics Emily Oster says it's enough of an impact that policy makers need to consider student performance when making decisions on school closures.

The traditional high school transcript reinforces outdated modes of education, limits learning to single subjects, and impedes the pursuit of educational equity. It sorts students through narrow measures such as grades and GPA. Ben Rein of the Mastery Transcript Consortium explains why the Mastery Transcript is a dramatic alternative. It supports each student in exploring varied pathways to futures of interest, and in being recognized for acquiring and mastering skills both inside and outside of school.

This episode of the edspective podcast, Drs. Bigham and Myracle discuss school grade retention and what options should be available given the current COVID pandemic given the challenges with technology and shifting the curriculum online. One of the primary reasons why districts and states suspended assessment, some schools were unable to change to online learning or how long the virus was going to stay around during the spring. Now we are entering the 2019-2020 school year, COVID appears to be here to stay. Yet, schools may determine some students are behind and could be held back. We discuss how those decisions might impact students and schools if not carefully documented. However, we consider most schools did not retain students within the same grade. Drs. Bigham and Myracle interview the podcast producer Dr. Silver regarding his experiences and how he would react if the school system were to hold Dr. Silver’s son back in school.

The Medical Student Performance Evaluation or MSPE, previously known as the Dean's Letter, is an important part of the residency application. In a recent survey of over 1,200 program directors representing 24 specialties, over 80% of programs cited the MSPE as a factor used to make interview decisions. To put this in context, only two other criteria - the USMLE Step 1 score and letters of recommendation - were used more often than the MSPE to decide whom to interview. Join Drs. Rajani Katta and Samir Desai as they discuss the MSPE in more depth. You'll learn when this important document is developed, how it's written, and the type of content that is included. You'll also learn how you can take an active role in shaping your own MSPE so that the final document produced serves you well in the residency selection process. www.thesuccessfulmatch.com

You are likely in week 1 to week 5 of this new era of teaching remotely, depending on when your school made this shift. As you start to settle into routines, we know that many of you start to ask the question, "how can I assess my students when we are all working from home?" I can't imagine two better people to answer this question than Amanda and Brian who came back to the NGPF podcast to share innovative ideas about assessing student performance. These ideas emerged from their standing Saturday morning meetings with NGPF Fellows. You won't think about assessments the same way after reviewing their Choice Board. Enjoy!

An artificial intelligence (AI) model can now better determine the degree of students' learning using educational games. Researchers from North Carolina State University created a model that can project student achievement on a test based on students' previous experience with learning tools like educational games. The researchers tested the effectiveness of their model by analyzing student behavior while student participants played an educational game called Crystal Island. In the game, participants act as medical agents engaging in different tasks to investigate a disease outbreak on an island. Before and after playing the game, the participants took a survey and a 17-item test. According to one of the researchers, the team wanted the AI model to be capable of predicting whether or not students would answer each item on the test correctly just by analyzing how they played Crystal Island. Using data from 181 students, the AI identified similar game-playing behaviors among students who answered each test item correctly and among those who answered erroneously. The model then used this data to predict how a new student would answer the same test item. According to the researchers, this AI model was about 10% more accurate in predicting student performance than other AI models. The researchers believe their model can be used to improve teaching and learning results. For instance, the model can alert teachers if students need supplementary lessons. Another researcher said the AI model can open the door to more sophisticated educational programs that can adjust to students' needs.

Mastery quizzing is a strategy linked to mastery learning. By using short low-stakes quizzes, you can help your students actively study course material. You can use mastery quizzes to help with exam preparation and prepare for classes. You can also use low-stake quizzes as a replacement for homework and as gateways for content release. In this episode, I am going to expand on my discussion about test pools and adaptive release with mastery quizzes. You will learn how others are using this strategy to increase student performance as well as successful strategies for implementing mastery quizzes. Come learn more.

What if achieving our goals is not about willpower but about gratitude, compassion and pride? It’s natural to experience negative emotions, like discouragement, frustration, and even fear when we’re working on something hard. And every time these feelings arise, we may be tempted to overcome them with willpower. But rather than dismissing our emotions, what if we put them to work on our behalf? In this interview, David DeSteno, author of the book, Emotional Success: The Power of Gratitude, Compassion, and Pride, explains: “Emotions push people to do hard things. And if we’re not utilizing those tools in the right way, we’re kind of fighting this battle with one hand tied behind our back.” In particular, the three emotions David champions are gratitude, compassion and pride. He explains that they not only fuel perseverance, but also “…reduce people’s blood pressure. There’s evidence they will help you sleep better at night. They will increase immune responses. In general, they basically act to destress the body.” David is a Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University and a Fellow of the American Psychological Association where he served as editor in chief of the journal, Emotion. His work has appeared in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the Atlantic.

Eric Hanushek of Stanford University's Hoover Institution talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about the importance of teacher quality in education. Hanushek argues that the standard measures of quality--experience and advanced degrees--are uncorrelated with student performance. But some teachers consistently cover dramatically more material and teach more than others, even within a school. Hanushek presents evidence that the impact of these differences on lifetime earnings for students can be quite large. The conversation closes with a discussion of school finance and the growth of administrators within school systems.

www.eltpodcast.com Welcome to the sixth episode of ELT Podcast, the Teachers' Lounge. In this episode, we discuss student expectations. What do students expect our classes to be like? What do they expect to get out of the classes? How are their expectations sometimes at odds with our own expecations of how the class should go?
