Is working on your mindset all it's hyped up to be? Is it actually what people need to maximise their potential, or can it misalign expectations and cause a lot of wasted time? In this week's episode, Todd talks about 'Collective Teacher Efficacy', presented to him in his rationality group. We draw on some of the parallels found in fitness. Collective Teacher Efficacy claims that teachers having a belief in making an impact is what helps teachers be effective educators when the evidence points towards a different, much simpler direction, whether home life values and supports education. We see this in fitness a lot, with specific coaches claiming that their methods or less tangible things like mindset make people successful. Listen to learn more about our thoughts on having a helpful outlook on mindset in training. For example, when having an anything is possible mindset can help get someone off the couch, but not so beneficial in unpredictable competitive sports.

This isn't just Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math, it's a State of Mind. STEAM State of Mind is a different way to approach education in the classroom. Produced by the students and staff of the Kettering City School District in Ohio, you'll hear conversations from students, staff, and community members. This show will break down misconceptions and assumptions about STEAM education in the hopes to promote project based learning and other integrations in the classroom.Student CreditsMusiciansIan Melin - GuitarJulia Mothersole - Bass GuitarEvan Loyd - DrumsetEmma Morgan - MarimbaAlexia Wescott - VocalsVoice OversJaidyn Peoples - Intro Voice OverJacob Gentry - Intro Voice OverEdward Gentry - Intro Voice OverLogo ArtMaya BittnerAudio EditingLuis Cortes-HestonStaff CreditsHost: Bern SchwietermanHost: Kari BassonExecutive Producer: John Gentry Hosted on Acast.

Joshua Yeager is a servant leader who strives to be compassionate and loyal while holding a high level of integrity. With fifteen years of dedicated service in the areas of business, education, and leadership, he feels that now is the time to collaboratively be a catalyst of change by providing a high level of quality leadership that increases principal and teacher capacity. Joshua has held many leadership roles in K-12 schools such as teacher, coach, literacy coordinator, assistant principal, special projects, principal, and director of schools. He is currently a PhD candidate in curriculum and instruction with an emphasis in Leadership, at the American College of Education in Indianapolis, Indiana. Joshua has a continued commitment to ensuring that all students and teachers are  competitive at the highest level in a global society. Currently, he resides in Hattiesburg and has one daughter who's a freshman in high school.  Key Takeaways: Teachers will perform to the level that they believe they can perform at if supported. You have to become uncomfortable if you are going to continue to grow to your greatest potential. Professional development needs to be teacher centric, engaging, and relevant. Whole school improvement becomes second nature when teachers are being coached. Regular ceremonies to champion teachers and students is essential to building a successful culture. Don't use existing policies as an excuse not to change. They were meant to be adjusted. Being visible all day every day is a key to leadership. Leadership isn't about the leader, but instead those they lead. Practicing humility is essential. Stay in Touch: Twitter Website

A few weeks ago I attended an online conference about visible learning and other teaching strategies.   I particularly enjoyed a presentation by American based Educator Douglas Fisher. Along with Nancy Frey, Douglas has done research about many aspects of teaching, but what caught my attention was this idea of Collective teacher efficacy & credibility among colleagues & students. On this scale,  there are 4 types of teachers There's the teacher we'll call the ‘amplifier', who has high levels of teacher efficacy, and very high credibility with students. This is the teacher that we all should strive to be. We'll dig deep into that one last. So that's the ‘amplifier'. At the other end of the spectrum we have a teacher with low collective teacher efficacy  and low credibility with students and. I've nicknamed this teacher the ‘burning out' teacher.    In the middle there's the ‘talker'. Now the ‘talker' has very high levels of collective teacher efficacy, but actually has quite a low level of credibility with students.  Then there's the independent contractor. This teacher is fantastic in the classroom, has very high levels of credibility with students. Buuuuut, they don't really engage with their colleagues, have a negative view of the school, and keep their resources to themselves.   The amplifier is the teacher that we should all aspire to be.  This teacher has a high level of collective teacher efficacy and very high credibility with students. This teacher is Perceived as competent, trustworthy, dynamic, caring and accessible by colleagues & students. They are Professionally generous with colleagues & Seek to learn from them.  The amplifier also teacher Has an optimistic view of students, colleagues & the school.   So you wouldn't find the amplifier complaining about management, or whinging about this student and that students in the staff room. They would radiate positivity with all the encounter in the school. And deal with grievances or concerns in a professional way.   And the part from Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey's work that I love the most, is how they note that when it comes to a teacher who is an amplifier, Students & colleagues reach their potential because of this person.   Students & colleagues reach their potential because of this person.  So the question for all of us is: Are my students, and my colleagues, reaching their potential because of my presence in our learning community.  Am I bringing out the best in my students?  And am I actively working to contribute positively to the work of my colleagues, and am I allowing them to reach their full potential.  More videos about this topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSINhoh5b4c This episode of The Teacher's Guide Podcast is perfect for beginner teachers, aspiring teachers, prac teachers, uni students, experienced teachers, primary teachers, high school teachers and more!Today's sponsor: WillProUse the code teacherpodcast for a 15% off discount! https://willpro.com.au/https://theteachersguide.com.au/https://www.facebook.com/theteachersguidepodcast https://www.instagram.com/theteachersguidepodcast/

This is the third conversation I've had since the beginning of the podcast with Jon Eckert. In this podcast I ask Jon about what John Hattie calls "Collective Teacher Efficacy" and how it is the factor that has the greatest impact on student learning. Likewise, I ask Jon about what he calls "Catalytic" leadership in his book Leading Together. Jon's Bio: As a Professor of Education at Wheaton College, Jon’s research includes teaching effectiveness, teacher preparation, teacher evaluation, and teacher compensation. In addition to his work at Wheaton he is a Research Consultant for the Center for Teaching Quality and he has also consulted with the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching and the U.S. Department of Education. You can find his recent research on Collective Leadership in his new book, “Leading Together: Teachers and Administrators Improving Student Outcomes.”

3 Powerful Points to Resolving Problems and Move Forward! Resolving Problems, how many times have you thought about your problems and still there is no resolution inside? Days go by and you find yourself constantly thinking about the problem. You have tried so many things and yet the problem won’t go away. What can you do to resolve problems and move forward in life?  When it comes to your problems, what do you perceive is your problem?  Are you resolving the right problem?  Here are 3 powerful points to re-direct your thinking to actually move you forward in life:  Be specific about the problem. People perceive their problems are bigger than they can handle. They say they are not good with finances.  There is no hope in relationships.  Their health will never turn around.  People talk about their problems using broad words such as finances, relationships and health.  How can you be more specific about the problem you are trying to resolve? For example, let’s say you are not good with your finances.  The word ‘finances’ involves things like spending, saving, investing, earning, keeping cash around and credit cards. What specifically is your problem around your finances?  You say you feel really good about putting money into investments every payday. You feel good to know you pay your bills on time. Are those problems?  Now if you maximize your credit card all the time and that really upsets you that is a specific problem you would want to resolve.  You have taken what you perceived as a huge problem with finances and specifically identified the area of unrest.  To know the specific problem moves you forward to easily resolve the unrest inside.    Look inside for the solutions to your problems. There are things you feel good about inside and then there are things you do not feel so good about. The things you don’t feel so good about are the things you need to resolve.  This means in the moments when you are upset or bothered in some way you do not look to fix or change the people around you.  You start by looking inside for the solutions to your problems.  Any kind of emotions, such as being upset or bothered in some way are reactions which cause you to feel unrest inside.  Your reactions are about you and how you feel!  If you want to resolve the unrest you need to go inside to get a sense of what is upsetting or bothering you.  For example let’s say you are fighting with your husband.  You say he isn’t being respectful and it makes you mad.  Once you identify what is making you mad the very next step is to ask yourself what specifically makes you mad about that?  Go past thinking about how your husband treats you and move your focus inside yourself to where you can resolve your feelings of being mad.  When you have time to yourself close your eyes and This is very powerful.  When your problem has been resolved you will feel a sense of calm inside yourself. It is inside yourself where you will find the solutions to your problems.  This does not mean you changed the other person and the problem goes away!  This means you have resolved the reactions or the unrest you were feeling inside.  To resolve the unrest means you are no longer reacting like you did which moves you forward in life.  Know what it is you are feeling! When you go inside yourself to resolve your problem you are actually getting a feel for what the unrest is about.  The best way to describe this is to close your eyes and think of your problematic thoughts until you can feel the unrest inside yourself. That unrest may show up as a pain type sensation.  Once you feel that unrest stay with that feeling and stop thinking of the thoughts.  Your intention is to take your focus off of what you perceive the problem is and put your attention on what you are actually feeling. Everyone is unique and will experience this differently.  Putting your attention on what you are feeling actually helps you to know what the real problem is!  When you resolve the real problem you will move forward in life.          For example, let’s say you are starting to feel pain in your back.  Because of all the pain you are feeling, over time you have come to refer to your back as a ‘bad’ back. Is the pain you are actually feeling coming from your back or is the pain coming from the energy related to your thoughts around what you are feeling?  How is that for a question today!  Thoughts cause you to feel and your feelings are expressed through the physical body.  Feelings can be felt in many ways such as tension or pain-type sensations. Whatever you feel in your back can be resolved by going inside.  When you feel the unrest with the intention to resolve the unrest inside, your pain will be gone and you will experience healing in more ways than you know. Resolving your problems using these three points allows you to move forward in life with a greater sense of calm inside.  You may be pleasantly surprised to learn the actual problem is something different that what you perceived it to be!!   Sheila Unique, Trainer & Speaker Expert in Field of Teacher Efficacy and Student Achievement The Unique Approach http://theuniqueapproach.com/ BIO....
