Podcasts about teaching learning

As part of my daily routine, I scan dozens of blogs, visit a handful of Facebook groups, and skim through Twitter. The goal: find the most helpful resources, tools, and articles that I can share with my teacher friends (that's you!).

This means you can provide students with reading support for your own stories, articles, and assignments. Google Vids Education Film Festival - teachers can submit their Google Vid creation to be featured in a Google For Education blog post. Submission deadline is May 15, 2025. Google Vids is available for EDU Plus and Teaching&Learning domains.  New sidebar menu for Google Slides - this handy menu provides quick access to templates, building blocks, and other features, based on your Google license.  Clone yourself in minutes - my latest YouTube video discusses three ways to use video in your classroom. It's not as hard as you might think! 5 end of year project ideas - I know it's hard to believe, but the end of the school year is not far away. Take some time to plan an end-of-year project to help students reflect on their learning Audio Overview for Gemini (and docs!) - This popular feature first appeared in NotebookLM, but is now available in Gemini as well. It is especially useful when using the “deep research” model.

Emily Kircher-Morris talks with Barbara Pape, Senior Director of the Learner Variability Project, about the concept of learner variability. The conversation touches on the importance of recognizing each student's unique strengths and challenges. They explore how educators can support neurodivergent learners through personalized instruction, they cover the role of technology in education, and talk about the need for a sense of belonging in the classroom. The discussion also touches on the barriers educators face in addressing learner variability and the evolution of educational policy to better support diverse learners. TAKEAWAYS Learner variability is the recognition that each student has unique strengths and challenges. Teaching to the middle does not effectively reach any student. Understanding learner variability allows educators to see design challenges rather than student problems. The Learner Variability Navigator is a tool for educators to understand and support diverse learners. Creating a sense of belonging is crucial for student engagement and success. Students should have agency in how their accommodations are presented to peers. Belonging in the classroom requires a whole child approach. Educational policy must evolve to provide adequate support for neurodivergent learners. Barbara Pape is the Senior Director of the Learner Variability Project at Digital Promise, where she led a national survey on learner variability, edtech, and teacher practice, authored the defining paper on learner variability, and co-developed the IEP Project, which emphasizes strength-based, whole-child approaches to writing IEPs. She also hosts a monthly edWeb webinar series and previously served as executive producer of the award-winning Teaching & Learning conference for the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. Her background includes roles in public policy, having worked on former U.S. Senator Paul Simon's Senate and Presidential campaign, as well as in the U.S. Senate on the Education and Labor Committee. Barbara has contributed to numerous publications and was the editor and publisher of the first electronically delivered education newsletter, The Daily Report Card. She serves on the boards of Benetech and The Riley Project and is involved in multiple education and learner variability working groups. Previously, she was an advisor for the Kennedy Center's Intersection of the Arts and Special Education and a strategic planning committee member for Montgomery County Public Schools. She is currently pursuing a PhD at University College London, holds an EdM in reading and literacy from Harvard University's Graduate School of Education, and began her career as a middle school language arts teacher.

Our job as developers is to make it as easy as possible. […] There's something about the craft and time you spent developing your ideas into a 3D model. There's something about that investment that makes it worthwhile.

Guest John Camp (he goes by Camp) is Head of Teaching & Learning at the New England Innovation Academy, where he oversees the development of systems to recruit, hire, support, and evaluate teachers. He also supports teachers in developing and implementing the curriculum. He's been a leader and a teacher at various schools throughout his 29-year career.  His experience includes English and writing classes and interdisciplinary courses such as “The Art and Physics of Time Travel.” At St. Mark's School, which bestowed him with The Trustees Chair and the Kidder Faculty Prize, Camp served as the Director of Experiential Learning and Associate Director of The Center of Innovation in Teaching and Learning. His pedagogical mantras include, “I aim to teach what cannot be Googled” and “I expect you to work hard, so I work hard.” Summary Our conversation examined how the New England Innovation Academy is shifting the landscape of 6-12 education toward integrating various learning styles and innovative teaching methods. Competency-based assessment was discussed as a promising alternative to traditional tests, emphasizing gauging students' mastery of skills and practical knowledge. The conversation went beyond academics, highlighting the growing importance of student-centered learning and fostering social-emotional development as crucial aspects of education. We also explored the practicalities at the New England Innovation Academy, delving into student workload, school policies, and their innovative practices. A central theme emerged: education is no longer solely about knowledge transmission. Instead, it is vital to nurture well-rounded individuals and promote personal growth through student-centered instructional approaches. This discussion provided valuable insights into the evolving education landscape, where innovation and student success are the driving forces shaping the future of learning.

Links: Olle's blog: https://www.hackingchinese.com/ My blog: imlearningmandarin.com Chinese Masterclasses: https://www.mandarinretreat.com/store/p/masterclasses In today's episode I interview one of my most hotly anticipated guests, the Mandarin educator, blogger and teacher, Olle Linge.  Olle is well known for being the founder of the blog Hacking Chinese. For over a decade, Olle has been drawing on his extensive experience of learning and teaching Chinese to offer tips and advice for other learners. If you've ever googled anything related to learning Mandarin, it's likely you'll have encountered his blog towards the top of the search results.  His own Mandarin journey began all the way back in 2007 when he studied Chinese at university. This was followed by two years  studying in Taiwan, after which he completed a Master of Education in his native Sweden, focusing on teaching Chinese and English.  Olle returned to Taiwan in 2012 for a two-years master's program for teaching Chinese as a second language. And since returning to Sweden in 2014, he's been working mostly at university teaching Chinese and professional development for language teachers. In the interview we had a wide ranging discussion covering his insights into learning tones, criticisms of conventional teaching methods and thoughts on the future of self-directed online language learning at a time when the numbers of people registering on formal Chinese studies courses are in decline globally. 

I'm a 24/7 teacher and learner, and I teach and learn via my relationships. This orientation may or may not work for you. No matter, I think it's interesting and worth sharing.

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Tom Rosenbauer, from Manchester Vermont.  Tom has been fly fishing and tying for nearly all his life.  After college he got a job as a retail clerk at Orvis when it was still a small but growing business in Vermont.  Slowly, but surely, Tom's emphasis on teaching and education helped develop him into a leader and educator at both Orvis and within the fly fishing community.   Tom is the author of over twenty fly fishing books, has created too many educational articles and videos to count, and is the host of the Orvis Fly Fishing Podcast, with over 12 million downloads.  His efforts have helped untold numbers of anglers on the water, myself included.  Besides the great personal gratitude I have for the resources Tom has put out into the world, perhaps what is most impressive to me is his persistent pursuit of learning and effortless humility.  We discuss what excites Tom about fly fishing these days, his thoughts on the creative process of writing, and exploring the richness of different trout streams.  Tom also shares his ideas on spot burning, catch and release, conservation, and overcrowding.To learn more about Tom and his fly fishing journey visit:Fish On - The Tom Rosenbauer StoryFor more fly fishing stories, lessons learned, and artwork check out my blog and online gallery at Wadeoutthere.com

As longtime listeners can attest, we love lists here at the Faculty Factory. This week we are joined by Mary Deane Sorcinelli who brings us the gift of her top ten tips for new faculty. Dr. Sorcinelli is Professor Emeritus & Senior Fellow, Center for Teaching & Learning with University of Massachusetts Amherst. Providing guidance and support to help navigate the challenges of academic medicine is what we are all about. Dr. Sorcinelli's in-depth list will help young faculty build a strong foundation for the rigors of their career. While geared towards young faculty, this list provides truly valuable insights and advice that will benefit faculty at all stages of their career. The list came from Dr. Sorcinelli thinking about what advice she wished she had received when she started out in her career. “I looked at the research which had identified a couple of core issues and interwoven concerns that new faculty have,” she told us. To learn more, please feel free to reach out to Dr. Sorcinelli via email: dene@umass.edu. She will be more than happy to send you a document of the tips she outlined in today's interview.

I am so excited to have Christina Bryan, the Chief of Staff at a Nonprofit, on the podcast for today's episode of #29DaysofMagic! We talk about what her first job at McDonald's was, and how it was that she worked at all of the roles at McDonald's, where she absolutely had the best time! We discuss how making mistakes and failing is not the end, and how things won't always be easy there will be some dirtiness and that is necessary to move forward. We bond over being event people, the challenges of curating events and the benefits. Christina would like to give this piece of advice, "I will not engage in any partnerships or friendships with any one who prioritizes money, wealth, and or status over passion, service to others, and kindness..." which is a promise she made to herself, and has found great success in keeping it. Look out for Christina's upcoming book about failure.

In higher education our introductory classes are more diverse than ever.  That's great!  Our graduating classes?  Less diverse. That's bad!  Faculty play a critical role in this loss of diversity and therefore have a responsibility to address the issue.  In this episode, Dr. Viji Sathy and Dr. Kelly Hogan, authors of “Inclusive Teaching: Strategies for Promoting Equity in the College Classroom” (2022) discuss a wide range of evidence-based practices that can help our most challenged, our most diverse students succeed, improving classroom equity.  Please listen, then take action! 

In episode 132 of the Lecture Breakers podcast, our guest is Dr. Susan D. Blum, editor of the popular book Ungrading: Why Rating Students Undermines Learning (and What to Do Instead). We talk about what ungrading is and the common misconceptions people have about it. Susan shares her own journey, and I appreciate her honesty and openness when it comes to her own transformation and how she views her role as an educator. If you are curious about ungrading, or if you're already using this approach and you want to improve the experience, then I know this episode will be helpful for you!

Featured Content (8:38) When It Comes to Picking Edtech, Are Schools Listening to Teachers? (EdSurge) When your school or district decides to invest in and make a new edtech product available, the goal is to transform student learning and add value to their experiences in the classroom. But where in the process do you fit in? If you're a teacher what, if any, is your role? And how much say do you—or should you—have in edtech decisions? In a survey released earlier this year, the edtech company Clever found that 85 percent of administrators say teachers are involved in choosing tools. When the company asked teachers, more than 60 percent said they were hardly ever—or never—involved in those choices. So which is it? Do You Have a Seat at the Table Is there enough teacher voice in the edtech selection process? NO. Why? Well first, teachers aren't the people in a position to spend district resources and sign contracts with vendors. At a fundamental level, this puts distance between the companies and the teachers. #2...when it comes to purchasing #edtech focus is usually on the tech and not the education. So your tech personnel is usually more involved because the tech needs to work before it can be used to teach. Striking a Balance So how do we find that balance? A major obstacle is that teachers, and I've been guilty of this, don't always see the big picture and have that birds-eye view. Think data security, FERPA, & COPPA. Schools and districts can easily involve teachers by running pilot programs before widespread adoption and implementation. Let some teachers kick the tires with their students and get feedback. This makes perfect sense because at a basic level people want to be heard and valued and if technology is just being mandated then, teachers don't feel heard or valued. Speaking of mandates...that's not always the best idea. Making everyone use one specific tool isn't always what's good for everyone. Choice and options are powerful. Who Gets a Say? Typically it's people out of the classroom who have the most say. Sometimes that's completely valid. There are plenty of organizations, certifications, and degrees that can give a person the knowledge to make those decisions and have a lot of pull in the conversations. But if a person is all books smart and not street smart - and by street smart I mean 5 or more years of classroom experience - then their opinion and POV don't hold as much water - in my opinion. Technology can make a teacher's life easier but it will never replace us and there is no magic pill that will solve all edtech issues. So beware of those that sell this brand of #edtech snake oil. Feeling Left Behind Another key challenge is that schools and districts often make purchases meant to support all teachers, even though the needs of teachers vary widely by subject matter and grade level. Hello Phys. Ed. Teachers! Can you think of another subject area that benefits less from edtech in your district? It might even be true that there is more technology available to assist a PE teacher than in any other subject area. Could you imagine a Peloton lab in your middle or hs where students could differentiate their fitness based on their individual health goals and needs? We have the ability easily collect health and fitness data but when was the last time the phys ed dept was involved in the edtech decision process? We're leaving some teachers behind. Collaboration From the Start How do we get collaboration from the start? Well if you're in a small school setting then it's really easy to get everyone's opinion. But what if you're in a district with 12 schools, 1500 teachers, and over 10,000 students? Or a district that's larger than that? Teacher buy-in has to come from the ground up. Every content area needs to have a voice and advocate for its needs. School and district officials need to work with classroom teachers and talk honestly about their edtech needs. We have committees for just about everything so if there isn't one, there should be an # edtech-related committee in each school that has a seat at the table and is valued in the edtech selection process. What is the edtech selection process like for you? What role do you get to play in the process where you are?
