This enlightening conversation aims to inspire listeners to embrace their inner potential and contribute to global well-being. About Rev. Bill: Rev. Bill's life has been a spiritual journey, spanning slightly over 7 decades. His whole life has been a mystical trip in search of gurus, the paranormal, and self-discovery. He has written about his many spiritually transforming experiences and “near-death experiences” including supernatural events during his combat tour-of-duty in the Vietnam War. In his books he has shared some incredible spiritual events that are beyond both common understanding or explanation. His autobiography “Warrior A Spiritual Odyssey” takes us on a life quest for love, understanding, forgiveness and enlightenment. His follow-up book (Publishing date 2017) “Alchemy of a Warrior's Heart “continues that mystical journey including four trips to India for even more profound experiences with holy men, miracles and his personal relationship with the Divine. His books are also available in German and Spanish. What he knows for sure, after all these years, is that the only thing that is truly real is LOVE. He speaks publicly about the need to forgive and power and energy of love. His mission in life is to inspire others to seek the Divine and he does that though his personal stories of his own life experiences. He is a seeker but not just for himself. His “mission” is to allow others to experience his journey through his stories. He has had 3 near-death and near-death-like- experiences and many countless encounters with the supernatural. His beliefs are simple: There is but ONE GOD – and our only mission is to LOVE & SERVE ALL. Key Points Discussed: (00:00) - Rev.

Anumeha Bhagat, MD, DNB, joins the Faculty Factory Podcast this week for a timely interview on medical education, innovative teaching skills, and building a new generation of well-rounded leaders in the field worldwide. As mentioned in this interview, Dr. Bhagat is a fellow of the Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education and Research (FAIMER) Institutes. She also serves as an Assistant Professor of Physiology and is a member of the MEU faculty at Government Medical College in Chandigarh, India. She is a major proponent of measuring impact in faculty development, and as an international podcast reaching over 100 countries, we are hopeful that learning about global best practices will be a key benefit of having Dr. Bhagat joins us this week! Her work aims to enhance the quality of medical training, cultivate well-rounded future leaders in medicine, and promote innovative teaching methods to better prepare faculty for the demands of this beautiful calling of academic medicine. As discussed in the opening moments of this interview, getting trained in basic medical education technologies is a mandatory requirement for promotion in India. This contrasts with the United States, where education can be a pathway or track, or even supplementary. “The governing bodies have made this a mandatory requirement. So, once you become a faculty member, you need to complete this basic course in medical education to be promoted to the next level,” she explained. We would like to thank a dear friend of the Faculty Factory, Page S. Morahan, PhD, a founding co-director of FAIMER, for connecting us with Dr. Bhagat, who helped paved the way for this enriching discussion with Dr. Bhagat.

Up this week is a provocative new episode for The Nick Halaris Show featuring author and historian Kate Epstein. Kate is an Associate Professor for History at Rutgers, the author of two fascinating books—"Torpedo” and “Analog Superpowers”— and a contributor to Persuasion, a publication dedicated to promoting free society. I came across Kate's work when a friend and one of my most steadfast supporters forwarded me her must-read essay “We, Robots.” While most are out cheering AI and its potential to make us super intelligent, Kate dares to consider the alternative: what if AI is actually making us all dumber? When I first read the article, I had a feeling Kate would make for a great podcast guest and she did not disappoint. Tune in to this fascinating conversation to learn:The scary truth about the decline in the reading and writing capabilities of college students and why professors around the country are being forced to lower their standards Why AI represents such a profound threat to the original ideal of the liberal arts education (i.e. training people for freedom) and why we should fight against its use in schools Why reading and writing are skills we shouldn't take for granted and the crucial role they play in fostering free society As always, I hope you all enjoy this episode.

In this conversation, Romy Alexandra discusses the concept of experiential learning, sharing her personal journey and insights into how experiential education can transform traditional learning methods. She emphasizes the importance of engaging learners through experience, reflection, and action, and explores the experiential learning cycle and various learning styles. The discussion also highlights the significance of reflection in the learning process and how it can be made more engaging. Romy shares practical strategies for facilitators to enhance their teaching methods and the need to bridge theory and practice in education. Experiential learning is about learning through experience, reflection, thinking, and acting. Reflection is essential for deep learning and should be varied to keep it engaging. Learning styles are preferences that can change over time and should not box learners in. The experiential learning cycle can be applied to all aspects of life, not just formal education. Peer learning is often more impactful than facilitator-led instruction. Creating a safe space for reflection can lead to powerful insights and learning outcomes. Facilitators should strive to engage all learning styles in their teaching methods. The journey of learning is continuous and can spiral into deeper understanding and action.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Gerald Pollack, a renowned professor of bioengineering at the University of Washington and founding editor-in-chief of the journal Water. Dr. Pollack is widely recognized for his groundbreaking discoveries in cell biology and water science, particularly his identification of the “fourth phase” of water—also known as EZ (exclusion zone) water. His research offers a radical rethinking of how water functions in biological systems, challenging classical theories. Today we explore the foundations of Dr. Pollack's theory, emphasizing the influential research of the late Gilbert Ling. We begin by examining key topics such as the existence of the cell membrane, evidence challenging ATP as the cell's energy currency, and the disproofs of the membrane-pump theory. We also question conventional models of the atom and consider how Dr. Pollack's findings connect to these paradigm shifts. Finally, we discuss the discoveries from Dr. Pollack's lab and their far-reaching implications for biology and human health.Full Show Notes Here.

English Language Teachers (ELT): Under The Covers - Interview Series
How to be a teacher everyone remembers? You teach like Michel Thomas! Michel Thomas was a polyglot language teacher, author, and Holocaust survivor. He was born in Poland in 1914 and grew up in Germany. He fled to France before the outbreak of World War II, and was later arrested by the Nazis and sent to a series of concentration camps. After the war, he moved to the United States, where he began teaching languages. Michel Thomas developed his own method of language teaching, which is based on the idea that students can learn a new language quickly and efficiently by breaking it down into its component parts and building it up again. He emphasized on the use of repetition and association to help students learn quickly and effectively. He believed that traditional grammar-based language instruction was ineffective, and that students should learn a language by listening and speaking it, rather than by analyzing and memorizing grammar rules. Michel Thomas's language teaching method is widely known and popular. He recorded a series of audio courses, which have been used by millions of students worldwide.

Richard Feynman: Educating the Masses | Teaching Master! How to be a teacher everyone remembers? You teach like Richard Feynman! Richard Feynman was an American physicist, known for his work in the field of quantum mechanics and his contributions to the development of the atomic bomb as part of the Manhattan Project. Feynman was a professor of physics at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and received numerous awards for his work, including the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965. Feynman was known for his unique and unorthodox approach to physics, often using simple and intuitive explanations to understand complex phenomena. He was also known for his ability to convey complex scientific concepts in a clear and accessible way, both in his research and in his teaching. Feynman's work in quantum mechanics, particularly in the development of Feynman diagrams, is considered to be one of the most important contributions to the field. Feynman was also known for his curiosity and his love for science, which led him to explore a wide range of topics, from the nature of time to the behaviour of subatomic particles, and from the principles of quantum mechanics to the possibilities of nanotechnology. He was also a skilled and entertaining public speaker, and his lectures and books, such as "QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter" and "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" are still widely read and admired today.We award Richard Feynman with the best teacher prize of being a 'Master Teacher' for the inspiration and motivation he brought to educating. #RichardFeynman #Feynman Technique #Feynman In the ELT (Education* Learning*Teaching): Under The Covers - teaching masters series, we take a look at notable educators who have influenced us and education in general.

Media Utilization: Dr. Anderson emphasized the importance of using media to reach a broader audience. This approach not only enhances credibility but also effectively disseminates knowledge.Teaching and Extension: Transition from 100% extension work to incorporating teaching at Oklahoma State University (OSU) allowed Dr. Anderson to influence both students and farmers, providing a platform for broader impact.Marketing Strategies: The "third, a third, and a third" strategy for selling wheat is a notable contribution. This method helps farmers manage price volatility by spreading sales over different periods.Early Career: Dr. Anderson started his extension career in Kentucky, where he first appeared on TV with Ira Massey on "Tabacco Talk." This experience underscored the power of media in agricultural extension.Sales Class Success: His sales class at OSU, including the "Ready Set Sale" event, has been highly successful. It teaches students practical sales skills through real-world interactions, preparing them for future careers.(00:03) - Introduction and Welcome(00:35) - Information and Website Reminder(00:55) - Introduction of the Dream Team(01:14) - Doctor Josh Lofton's Introduction(02:14) - Introduction of Doctor Kim Anderson(03:17) - Kim Anderson's Grain Marketing Advice(03:35) - Kim Anderson's Career Began in 1980(04:27) - Transition from Kentucky to Oklahoma(05:48) - Early TV and Radio Experiences(06:26) - Creative Market Monitor Segments(07:02) - Fun and Criticism in Market Reporting(07:44) - Kim Anderson's Teaching Career(08:25) - Transition to Teaching Junior Marketing(10:04) - Success of the Sales Class(11:17) - Hands-On Sales Experience(12:10) - Ready Set Sale Dinner(13:09) - Support from Salespeople(13:55) - Reputation of Ferguson College of Agriculture(14:22) - Ready Set Sale Process(15:45) - Teaching During COVID(17:02) - Adjustments During COVID(17:55) - Sashay with a Salesperson(18:16) - Importance of Building Relationships(19:09) - Students Finding Salespeople(19:25) - Ready Set Sale Dinner Event(20:29) - Symbiotic Relationship Between Students and Salespeople(20:51) - Impact of Teaching on Extension Work(21:25) - Writing for Southwest Farm Press(22:17) - Teaching Through Media(23:08) - Repetition in Teaching(23:58) - Credibility Through Media(25:03) - Avoid Lectures, Facilitate Conversations(26:04) - Best Presentation Experience(27:19) - Learning from Farmers(28:01) - Mentorship from Successful Farmers(29:05) - Making Farmers Feel Good About Their Decisions(29:56) - Origin of the Third, a Third, a Third Strategy(31:02) - Media's Role in Credibility(32:15) - Importance of Returning Phone Calls(32:42) - Listening to Farmers(33:14) - Affirmation Calls from Farmers(34:09) - Caution with Media(35:07) - Handling Media Sensitivity(36:10) - Favorite Part of Extension Work(36:41) - Reward of Farmer Interactions(37:55) - Farmers Teaching Themselves(38:01) - Origin of the Third, a Third, a Third Strategy(39:06) - Double Retirement(40:02) - Current Wheat Marketing Strategy(41:02) - Importance of a Mechanical Marketing Strategy(42:15) - Average Yield and Price(43:20) - Value of Being Above Average(44:18) - Comfort in Marketing Decisions(45:33) - Retirement Plans(46:31) - Psychological Aspect of Retirement(47:36) - Making Decisions That Let You Sleep at Night(48:15) - Overcoming Doubts and Proving Others Wrong(48:27) - Closing Remarks and Thanks(48:45) - Outro and Contact Information RedDirtAgronomy.com

“Making a conscious and intentional effort to tap into your own personal power and being courageous” is the way today's guest defines “teaching like yourself.” I'm talking with Dr. Gravity Goldberg, whom you might remember from a 2019 interview I did, which ended up being one of the most downloaded Truth for Teachers episodes ever. It's Episode 171, called “Teach like yourself: Why YOU are the person your students need most.” Gravity has over 20 years of teaching experience, including positions as a science teacher, reading specialist, third grade teacher, special educator, literacy coach, staff developer, assistant professor, educational consultant, and yoga teacher. Gravity holds a B.A. and M.Ed. from Boston College and a doctorate from Teachers College. As the founding director of Gravity Goldberg, LLC she leads a team that offers side-by-side coaching and workshops that focus on teachers as decision-makers and student-led instruction. Since our last conversation, Gravity — who has authored 9 books on teaching — has released a new title called Active Learning: 40 Teaching Methods to Engage Students in Every Class and Every Subject, which she co-wrote with the late Barry Gilmore. We touch a bit on that book and what Gravity's working on now, but I thought of this conversation as a “Teach Like Yourself, Revisited”. I wanted to know how her thinking has changed around this topic, and the role authentic teaching plays now. Listen in as we discuss: How “teaching like yourself” (making a conscious and intentional effort to tap into your own personal power and being courageous) is more important now than ever What Gravity has learned about authentic teaching and learning since publishing her book on that topic Has she changed her mind on anything? What would she add? How teachers can integrate engagement strategies in a way that feels authentic and meaningful, rather than just tossing something into their instructional day because they think (or are told) they should The impact of authenticity on students, and specific, practical ways we can make sure students are able to be their true, authentic selves in the classroom Click here to read the transcript and participate in the discussion.
