According to police, Smith struck the victim while driving, and when the victim tried to exit, Smith pushed her out, causing severe injuries, including road rash, facial wounds, and permanent scarring. Smith was arrested shortly after and charged with aggravated assault and aggravated battery. She remains in custody without bond. STORY 2: Smyrna to Close Portion of King Street Each Weekend Starting this weekend, a portion of King Street in Smyrna will close to vehicle traffic from Fridays at 3 p.m. to Sundays at 6 p.m. until November. The Smyrna City Council approved the closure to enhance pedestrian safety around the popular downtown greenspace. Mayor Derek Norton emphasized the need to protect families enjoying the area, allowing easier access between the playground and greenspace. Barriers and potential bollards will be installed to enforce the closure, which may also benefit festivals. Norton praised the greenspace’s success and plans to evaluate the measure’s impact before considering expansion. STORY 3: Town Center Mall Pays Taxes, Avoids Auction Town Center mall has paid off nearly $1 million in overdue 2024 property taxes, avoiding a tax deed auction that could have led to new ownership. The mall, owned by Kohan Retail Group since 2023, has faced financial struggles, including power shutoffs and lawsuits. Recently placed in receivership, Lewis Taulbee of JLL now oversees its management. Despite challenges, the mall remains 90% leased, with hopes for redevelopment into a mixed-use space to revitalize the area. Local leaders envision a thriving future for the property, though its exact path remains uncertain. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

A new electric vehicle center at Toledo Public Schools' Toledo Technology Academy will teach the mechanics and engineers of the future all about the cars and trucks that are quickly gaining a major presence on roads around the world. The initiative is something that car dealers and UAW representatives have been calling for for years and will keep Toledo at the forefront of the vehicle manufacturing of the future.

The surge of technology in our lives has led to all kinds of new career paths that didn't exist even just a few years ago. If you're searching for a new career and aren't sure what's the best choice for you, consider working in IT. Why? Because information technology is the fastest-growing sector of the workforce. There are almost a half-million IT jobs in the U.S. alone, and the number of positions will surely grow. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics says that employment of computer and information systems (CIS) managers should increase by 11% from now through 2030. Our today is Steve Andreano, Director of Technology at Nevada Technology Academy which is Nevada's first solely focused high tech academy offering certificates in computer and network technology, web development, IoT, Cybersecurity, fiber optics, communication cabling and software engineering, that exists to help the community resolve the information technology labor shortage in Northern Nevada.

In part 2 of my interview with Wasfia Nazreen, we explore a range of issues related to her life as a climber, her leadership in the outdoor world, the elevation and education of women, and her relationship with His Holiness, the Dalai Lama.  If you are reading this episode description before you listen to the interview, I recommend you watch her short, award winning film, produced by Apple, Inc., and National Geographic.

She has won numerous national and global awards for her activism and commitment to empowering women through the field of adventure. She was named by Outside magazine as one of 40 women in the last 40 years who have advanced and challenged the outdoor world through their leadership, innovation, and athletic feats, and by Men's Journal as one of the 25 most adventurous women of the past 25 years.

Exploration, play, and mastery of digital computer equipment has been a growing trend in public education for quite some time. Because schools have increased an emphasis for STEM practices across the nation schools must transcend linear classroom structures. The Digital Arts and Technology Academy is an effort to challenge that and to provide a new curriculum model in Grand Prairie Independent School District with an emphasis on starting at the middle school level. Curriculum strategy and development is something that all schools seek to be better at and with standardized test score accountability systems in place, teachers are always looking at new ways to increase student interaction as well as problem solving and critical thinking skills. The Digital Arts and Technology Academy is an effort to transform a traditional middle school structure within a three-year program design and use an approach to bridge post-secondary educational goals with public school systems through technology and a non-traditional classroom engagement philosophy. This will be a brief demonstration of strategies that can be implemented for school improvement, increasing interactivity, and why for us the transformation of a traditional school system can work in public education. 

355: In this interview, Peter High speaks with Albert Hitchcock the Chief Operating and Technology Officer at Pearson. Among the topics they discuss include: How Albert took on COO responsibilities beyond the CIO role by identifying the need to streamline not just the companies underlying technology, but the operational processes as well. Albert’s responsibilities, which in addition to IT and digital transformation include product development, procurement, supply chain, customer service, and real estate. The evolution of the CIO role from the back office to the front office and Albert’s view that the role has become transformative to the point where it needs to encompass the operating model of the business The three-phased transformation Albert is leading, which includes radical simplification, platform strategy, and execution strategy How Pearson is working towards a single platform, similar to Netflix for education, which would be highly scalable, global in nature, high-quality, and one that can deliver all of their experiences around the world to millions of learners. An overview of the changes occurring at Pearson, including radical simplification and consolidation of systems, moving from data centers to the cloud, and people and culture changes. How Pearson has looked to an innovation ecosystem for idea generation How the company is using AI and augmented reality to make a difference in education and the workforce. How Pearson is preparing for the skills revolution with its Technology Academy, and how they are working to assist other companies in doing the same.
