In this episode of Why Distance Learning, Seth Fleischauer, Allyson Mitchell, and Tami Moehring welcome Hope Windle, Director of SUNY COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning). Together they unpack what COIL actually is, how it works inside real courses, and why it gives all students—not just those who can study abroad—access to meaningful international collaboration. Drawing on years of experience connecting students across countries, languages, and disciplines, Hope explains why meaningful collaboration isn't about content mastery alone, but about process, perspective, and growth.Pain PointMany educators believe that authentic global learning requires travel, study abroad programs, or well-funded international exchanges—opportunities that remain inaccessible to most students. Even when virtual connections exist, they are often superficial, short-lived, or focused on “learning about” others rather than learning with them.SolutionSUNY COIL offers a project-based, faculty-driven model that embeds international collaboration directly into existing courses. Rather than one-off calls or presentations, students work in mixed international teams on shared problems—ranging from food insecurity and data visualization to journalism, astrophysics, and app design.Throughout the conversation, Hope shares:What distinguishes COIL from “Mystery Skype”–style exchangesWhy friction, miscommunication, and failure are essential parts of cross-cultural learningHow COIL builds student maturity, humility, professional communication skills, and global awarenessWhy virtual exchange is a powerful tool for equity, access, and inclusion, especially for students historically excluded from international experiencesHow the UN Sustainable Development Goals provide a flexible, shared framework across disciplinesActionEducators across K–12 and higher education can begin rethinking global learning by:Designing short, team-based international projects within existing coursesPrioritizing process, collaboration, and reflection over perfect outcomesAllowing students to navigate real-world challenges like time zones, communication styles, and cultural differences—with guidance rather than rescueViewing virtual exchange not as a backup to travel, but as a distinct and powerful pedagogyWhy Distance Learning?For Hope, distance learning creates space for reflection, grace, and intentional response. By combining synchronous connection with asynchronous thinking time, virtual learning allows diverse voices, languages, and cultures to grow together—right now, not someday in the future.Episode LinksSUNY COIL: https://coil.suny.eduUN Sustainable Development Goals: http://sdgs.un.org/goalsHost LinksDiscover global virtual learning opportunities and resources at CILC.org with Tami Moehring and Allyson Mitchell.Seth Fleischauer's Banyan Global Learning provides meaningful global learning experiences that prepare students worldwide for success in an interconnected world.

Hey Friends~   What if mouth breathing isn't just a habit… but a symptom? In today's episode, I'm joined by a guest who revealed something I hadn't fully understood in all my years in this field: crooked teeth, small jaws, restless behavior, trouble with focus, even lingering speech sound errors can ALL be connected to how well a child is BREATHING. You'll hear how an under-developed airway affects far more than speech and behavior. When a child is mouth breathing, they don't get  the deep, restorative sleep their growing brain desperately needs. And deep sleep and proper oxygenation, everything from attention to learning can suffer. And make sure you listen through to the end, as we have something special for you!! Podcast listeners get access to a free online airway evaluation - a simple way to find out whether breathing might be part of your child's (or your own) challenges.  Also, if you are from MN, WI, or IA, you have an exclusive discount for in-person clinic visits. So, if mouth breathing, snoring, focus struggles, or stubborn speech sound issues feel familiar… this might be the insight you've been missing. If you or your child snores, mouth breathes, struggles with focus, wrestles with behavior, or has speech sound challenges, this might be the missing piece you've been searching for.  There is help for adults, so the listener discounts and freebies work for YOU, too!  This episode might change everything for you and your child!!  Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  hello@thelanguageofplay.com   ABOUT THE GUEST:   Dr. Ben Miraglia graduated from SUNY at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine in 1993.

Summary: Book a Free Talent Strategy Call In this episode, Tyler Bloom sits down with Ryan Bain, one of the very first NYSTA Greenskeeper apprentices, and Sue VanAmburgh from the New York State Turfgrass Association to unpack how the apprenticeship program is reshaping career pathways in golf course maintenance. They walk through Ryan's non-traditional journey from business/marketing graduate and landscaper to assistant and emerging leader in turf, and how an "open-minded" superintendent at Noyac Golf Club took a chance on potential over pedigree. Sue then pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to administer a statewide apprenticeship: communication with employers and SUNY Delhi, onboarding expectations, time management, and what happens when apprentices fall behind… or move on. Together, they tackle the questions superintendents and club leaders quietly worry about: Who is actually a good fit for an apprenticeship? What kind of employer environment is necessary? What if it doesn't work out? Along the way, you'll hear how the program balances classroom learning with on-course reps and how networking, peer support, and vendor participation can turn apprenticeship into a true workforce-development engine for the industry. What You'll Learn: Non-traditional backgrounds can be high-ceiling hires. Ryan had limited turf experience but a formal business degree, landscaping background, and clear drive - exactly the kind of profile most clubs overlook but this program is built to serve. Apprenticeship is a partnership, not a recruitment gimmick. NYSTA and SUNY Delhi emphasize that employers should identify someone already on their team they want to grow, then wrap structure, education, and support around that person. Structure + communication make the program work. Clear expectations (3–5 hours of coursework per week, a dedicated apprenticeship director, check-ins between employers, SUNY Delhi, and apprentices) keep the workload manageable and progress on track. It's not for everyone - on both sides. Apprentices need motivation, self-awareness, and a long-term growth mindset. Employers need the bandwidth and desire to mentor, not just get another set of hands on a mower. The hidden ROI is networking and leadership development. Cohort connections, in-person labs at SUNY Delhi, and peer group texts help apprentices feel less isolated — and give emerging leaders like Ryan a platform to coach the next class.

He later expanded his research to include pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and lead, situating these exposures within the broader context of urban adaptation and health disparities. The study of lead exposure in Albany, NY, examined its influence on child physical and cognitive development, with attention to maternal nutrition and other factors that affect the transfer of lead from mother to fetus. In partnership with the Akwesasne Mohawk Nation he has recently completed three major projects. The first examined how PCBs that were used in manufacturing affect physical and sexual development during adolescence. His second project followed up the adolescents in project 1 to learn how exposure had influenced their transition into adulthood. The third project, also conducted with the Akwesasne community, explored how environmental pollutants may impact reproductive health and fertility among women. Through this work, Dr. Schell highlights the urban environment as a critical frontier for human adaptation, emphasizing the challenges posed by pollution, stress, and other features of modern city life while recognizing that these challenges are inequitably distributed in society. In 2004 Schell established a research center at Albany with NIH support to grow research on health disparities. Continued NIH support culminated in an endowment grant that will support the center and the development of health disparities research for many years to come. ------------------------------ Contact the Sausage of Science Podcast and the Human Biology Association: Facebook: facebook.com/groups/humanbiologyassociation/, Website: humbio.org, Twitter: @HumBioAssoc Chris Lynn, Co-Host Website: cdlynn.people.ua.edu/, E-mail: cdlynn@ua.edu, Twitter:@Chris_Ly Courtney Manthey, Guest-Co-Host, Website: holylaetoli.com/ E-mail: cpierce4@uccs.edu, Twitter: @HolyLaetoli Anahi Ruderman, SoS Co-Producer, HBA Junior Fellow, E-mail: ruderman@cenpat-conicet.gob.ar

I recorded the intro to this episode on the first morning after we learned that, with about 50% of the vote and the highest turnout in recent history, Zohran Mamdani – a migrant, Muslim, and democratic socialist – is going to be New York City's next mayor. And he was elected on a platform that centered working class people's everyday struggles, and presented them with a vision of this city in which everyone has a right to be here, and that we need to fight for the conditions – of childcare, housing, transport – that make that possible. But we know, getting Zohran elected is only the beginning. Andwhile New York City has had progressive mayors in the past, in other ways we are facing a uniquely new context: one defined by an exceptionally openly socialist mayor, facing an exceptionally hostile and authoritarian federal government. And given the historic marginalization in the United States of the left, it turns out Latin American cities actually have a lot to teach New York City and the future Mamdani administration. At least this was the motivation behind an event recently organized at NYU titled “What New York's Next Mayor Can Learn From Latin America's Pink Tide”, which happened some days before the election. I know I am biased, btu this is genuinely one of the most genuinely informativeand thought-provoking events I've been to in a long time, demonstrating so clearly just how rich the experience of the contemporary left has been in Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and Ecuador, and how much wisdom is to be derivedfrom its successes and failures. The event featured Edwin Ackerman, professorat Syracuse University, followed by Gianpaolo Biocchi, Professor and founding director of the Urban Democracy Lab at NYU. Next was Gabriel Hetland, sociology professor at SUNY and who we hope to feature in Sur Urbano for a full episode soon, and finally, Thea RioFrancos, professor of PoliticalScience at Providence College.

Governor Kathy Hochul is urging SUNY students to volunteer at food pantries as the federal shutdown nears 40 days and threatens food aid for millions of New Yorkers. Meanwhile, ICE is recruiting NYPD officers through social media ads promising higher pay and up to $50,000 in bonuses. Also, more New York City buses will start using cameras Monday to ticket drivers who block lanes, part of the MTA's push for faster, safer service. Plus, in this week's transit segment, a closer look at Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani's bus plan and how controversy around the planned Gateway tunnels may have helped Mikie Sherrill win the New Jersey governor's race.

Step into Episode 184 of ‘On the Delo' as Delo reconnects with chef-owner Aaron Chamberlin and partner/chef Suny Santana to trace a 13-year mentor-to-partner journey from St. Francis to building Taco Chelo. It's a straight-talk playbook on persistence, clean food, tight operations, and leading with trust—told by the people who lived it.From a 15-year-old staging every station to co-creating a brand named after Suny's mother, this episode delivers practical lessons for restaurateurs: keep menus clean, models simple, and teams empowered. If you care about real ingredients, scalable ops, and developing leaders, you'll get a lot here.Chapter Guide (Timestamps): (0:00 – 0:31) Opening & Episode Setup: “This is episode 184…” and early memories of the show's first guest slots.

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdqcOIj_Lp/The promotional health claims found on the front sides of food packaging bear little or no relation to the actual nutritional value of the product within.  This the conclusion of researchers at SUNY's Upstate Medical University at Syracuse.The study involved 597 items representing 11 categories of the most commonly purchased foods and beverages.  For each, the health claims made on the front of the product's packaging were compared with the actual health value of the contents as determined by critical analysis of the package nutrition label.The data analysis showed no consistent relationship between the health claims heralded on the front of packaging with the actual nutritional value of the product for the most commonly purchased food items.  The claims were only accurate for fruits, vegetables, and fats and oils.  The greatest deviations between claims and actual nutritional value occurred for snacks and sweets, sugars, grains, protein foods, and condiments.The bottom line: buyer beware.   Read the actual nutritional labels and take the claims on the packaging with a ton of salt since most are actually BS.https://journals.stfm.org/primer/2025/venkatesh-2024-0129/#labeling #healthclaims #foods #nutrition

The period of the "second slavery" was marked by geographic expansion of zones of slavery into the Upper US South, Cuba, and Brazil and chronological expansion into the industrial age. As The Reinvention of Atlantic Slavery: Technology, Labor, Race, and Capitalism in the Greater Caribbean (Oxford UP, 2020) shows, ambitious planters throughout the Greater Caribbean hired a transnational group of chemists, engineers, and other "plantation experts" to assist them in adapting industrial technologies to suit their "tropical" needs and increase profitability. Not only were technologies reinvented so as to keep manufacturing processes local but slaveholders' adaptation of new racial ideologies also shaped their particular usage of new machines. Finally, these businessmen forged a new set of relationships with one another in order to sidestep the financial dominance of Great Britain and the northeastern United States. In addition to promoting new forms of mechanization, the technical experts depended on the know-how of slaves alongside whom they worked. Bondspeople with industrial craft skills played key roles in the development of new production processes and technologies like sugar mills. While the very existence of such skilled slaves contradicted prevailing racial ideologies and allowed black people to wield power in their own interest, their contributions grew the slave economies of Cuba, Brazil, and the Upper South. Together reform-minded planters, technical experts, and enslaved people modernized sugar plantations in Louisiana and Cuba; brought together rural Virginia wheat planters and industrial flour-millers in Richmond with the coffee-planting system of southeastern Brazil; and enabled engineers and iron-makers in Virginia to collaborate with railroad and sugar entrepreneurs in Cuba. Through his examination of the creation of these industrial bodies of knowledge, Daniel B. Rood demonstrates the deepening dependence of the Atlantic economy on forced labor after a few revolutionary decades in which it seemed the institution of slavery might be destroyed. The reinvention of this plantation world in the 1840s and 1850s brought a renewed movement in the 1860s, especially from enslaved people themselves in the United States and Cuba, to end chattel slavery. This account of capitalism, technology, and slavery offers new perspectives on the nineteenth-century Americas.

Guest Lyle Kirtman has been a leadership development consultant for more than 30 years. As CEO, of Future Management Systems Inc., he has worked on developing leaders to increase results for students in 500 school districts in 15 states. Kirtman's focus on innovation in education is a key element of his presentations, keynotes, and publications. His field-based research has already made major contributions to the educational leadership arena through his “7 Competencies for High Performing Leaders,” the use of leadership assessments for self-reflection and hiring, and the importance of getting a “C” in compliance to increase focus on results for student achievement. He is the author and co-author of numerous books, including Leadership and Teams: The Missing Piece of the Educational Reform Puzzle and Shaping the Future: Four Leadership Pivots for Lasting Educational Impact, which we discuss in this episode. Lyle earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from the State University of New York (SUNY) and a master's degree in counseling with a concentration in career development from SUNY and Fairfield University, Connecticut. Why This Episode Matters Lyle Kirtman's new book, Shaping the Future for Leadership Pivots for Lasting Educational Impact, aims to help educational leaders cultivate a positive results culture through four essential pivots. Identify a clear North Star that defines student success. Develop a new approach for hiring, developing, and retaining all staff (shifting from instructional leader to talent leader). Implement a system where employees self-assess their progress toward enabling student success. Establish and commit to high expectations for all students and staff. Kirtman argues that educational leaders lack a 21st-century "North Star" for student success, which is often narrowly defined by high-stakes test scores. He redefines "results" as the essential skills and competencies students need to be successful in life, beyond just academics. These include skills like critical thinking, resilience, and adaptability. Social Media www.futuremsi.com Twitter (X): @FutureManageme3

In this conversation, we explore the challenges of building more inclusive AI systems with John Pasmore, founder and CEO of Latimer AI and advisor to the Artificiality Institute. Latimer represents a fundamentally different approach to large language models—one built from the ground up to address the systematic gaps in how AI systems represent Black and Brown cultures, histories, and perspectives that have been largely absent from mainstream training data.John brings a practical founder's perspective to questions that often remain abstract in AI discourse. With over 400 educational institutions now using Latimer, he's witnessing firsthand how students, faculty, and administrators are navigating the integration of AI into learning—from universities licensing 40+ different LLMs to schools still grappling with whether AI represents a cheating risk or a pedagogical opportunity.Key themes we explore:The Data Gap: Why mainstream LLMs reflect a narrow "Western culture bias" and what's missing when AI claims to "know everything"—from 15 million unscanned pages in Howard University's library to oral traditions across thousands of indigenous tribes.Critical Thinking vs. Convenience: How universities are struggling to preserve deep learning and intellectual rigor when AI makes it trivially easy to get instant answers, and whether requiring students to bring their prompts to class represents a viable path forward.The GPS Analogy: John's insight that AI's effect on cognitive skills mirrors what happened with navigation—we've gained efficiency but lost the embodied knowledge that comes from building mental maps through direct experience.Multiple Models, Multiple Perspectives: Why the future likely involves domain-specific and culturally-situated LLMs rather than a single "universal" system, and how this parallels the reality that different cultures tell different stories about the same events.Excavating Hidden Knowledge: Latimer's ambitious project to digitize and make accessible vast archives of cultural material—from church records to small museum collections—that never made it onto the internet and therefore don't exist in mainstream AI systems.An eBay for Data: John's vision for creating a marketplace where content owners can license their data to AI companies, establishing both proper compensation and a mechanism for filling the systematic gaps in training corpora.The conversation shows that AI bias goes beyond removing offensive outputs. We need to rethink which data sources we treat as authoritative and whose perspectives shape these influential systems. When AI presents itself as an oracle that has "read everything on the internet," it claims omniscience while excluding vast amounts of human knowledge and experience.The discussion raises questions about expertise and process in an era of instant answers—in debugging code, navigating cities, or writing essays. John notes that we may be "working against evolution" by preserving slower, more effortful learning when our brains naturally seek efficiency. But what do we lose when we eliminate the struggle that builds deeper understanding?About John Pasmore: John Pasmore is founder and CEO of Latimer AI, a large language model built to provide accurate historical information and bias-free interaction for Black and Brown audiences and anyone who values precision in their data. Previously a partner at TRS Capital and Movita Organics, John serves on the Board of Directors of Outward Bound USA and holds degrees in Business Administration from SUNY and Computer Science from Columbia University. He is also an advisor to the Artificiality Institute.

Historiographies of Game Studies: What It Has Been, What It Could Be (Punctum Books, 2025) offers a first-of-its-kind reflection on how game studies as an academic field has been shaped and sustained. Today, game studies is a thriving field with many dedicated national and international conferences, journals, professional societies, and a strong presence at conferences in disciplines like computer science, communication, media studies, theater, visual arts, popular culture, and others. But, when did game studies start? And what (and who) is at the core or center of game studies? Fields are defined as much by what they are not as by what they are, and their borderlands can be hotly contested spaces. In this anthology, scholars from across the field consider how the boundaries of game studies have been established, codified, contested, and protected, raising critical questions about who and what gets left out of the field. Over more than two dozen chapters and interviews with leading figures, including Espen Aarseth, Kishonna Gray, Henry Jenkins, Lisa Nakamura, Kentaro Matsumoto, Ken McAllister, and Janet Murray, the contributors offer a dazzling array of insightful provocations that address the formation, propagation, and cultivation of game studies, interrogating not only the field's pasts but its potential futures and asking us to think deliberately about how academic fields are collectively built.

September 5, 2025- SUNY Chancellor John King gives an update on the state's effort to place adults in high-demand degrees at community colleges. He also talks about the structural deficits at some SUNY campuses and addresses the possibility of SUNY drawing the ire of the Trump administration.

This week on Dawnversations, I chat with author Katy Allen about her new book Stuck in Our Screens. Spoiler alert: the drama isn't just with teens—adults are just as guilty (maybe worse!). We dive into how our phones, scrolling habits, and social media antics are messing with real-life conversations, family dinners, and friendships. But don't worry—we keep it real, relatable, and yes, even a little funny. If you've ever side-eyed someone at the table glued to their phone (or been that person), this episode is for you.  KATHLEEN P. ALLEN is a  graduate of the University of Rochester, Warner Graduate School of Education and Human Development, Rochester, NY. A lifelong educator, she worked with the Alberti Center for Bullying Abuse Prevention at the University at Buffalo, SUNY from 2012 to 2023. Dr. Allen is a program evaluator, researcher, educator, writer, parent, and grandparent. She has published several articles on adolescent social drama.
