The official Redux recommendation is to avoid testing thunks in isolation and instead opt for integration testing with redux connected components. The main reason given is that thunks are considered implementation details.Why are thunks considered implementation details? In the context of async thunks in RTK can you give examples of how testing an async thunk might lead to false negatives and false positives in our tests? What are your opinions on testing thunks in isolation that conditionally dispatch other actions, something that my team at work often does. Example of a custom render method (docs on this)How are redux thunks implementation details?
In Episode 50, The Occupational Philosophers chat with Ian Gilbert, the founder of Independent Thinking, a unique and highly influential organisation in education across the UK. Independent Thinking seeks to move beyond teaching and learning, into motivation, creativity and leadership, social justice, neuroscience, inclusion, the environment and well-being. He is a prolific author with many books including the ever-popular Thunks collection, and ‘Why Do I Need a Teacher When I've Got Google?' He is committed to ongoing classroom work with children and young people, delivering keynotes and workshops at conferences around the world, and through his continuous work with teachers and leaders in schools, Ian has shown a whole generation of educators that there is always another way. He sets the bar when it comes to speaking to teachers, children and school leaders about his vision for education and unless someone is complaining their brain hurts, he knows he hasn't got the message across yet. In this episode, Ian and The Occupational Philosophers explore: How we all need to capture those ‘sparks' of creativity and imagination Why the mainstream education system is fundamentally flawed What education and learning might look like in 2052 The power of ‘Thunks' and how they can help you think more deeply How to harness the diversity of thought and creativity within your team Why not thinking is the best way to improve your thinking Can you solve a problem through the medium of mime? As always, there are some original thought experiments with this episode featuring: Whose question is it anyway?

What a deeply warm yet powerful conversation on the back of the bus this week we have for you. This was a genuine journey where we talk about love/ life / pain / death and laughter & Phoebe Gilbert from Cwtchy Care has wise thoughts towards each of these elements.Cwtchy Care aims to offer a range of products designed to help anyone experiencing loss and loneliness, and these are all feelings we are experiencing now more than ever.You might be grieving a loved one or a way of life, or just missing those you used to see much more,Phoebe's Cwtchy Care is helping us reconnect with your loved ones through a big cuddle in a box. Because although we aren't able to Cwtch the ones we love (for obvious reasons), this box is just as good as a big, warm cuddly cwtch to gift to those who need it most.
Education On Fire - Sharing creative and inspiring learning in our schools
Mark Taylor chats to Ian Gilbert, a patron of National Association for Primary Education. Since founding Independent Thinking in 1994, Ian has built a global reputation as an educational thinker, innovator, entrepreneur, speaker and award-winning editor and writer. He was listed by the IB magazine as one of their top 15 ‘educational visionaries'. Never happier than when he is making children's brains hurt, he has a unique first-hand perspective on the world of education having lived and worked in schools and universities in the UK, the Middle East, South America and Asia. He is now sharing his time between Rotterdam, where his wife is an international school principal, and their home in the middle of nowhere deep in West Wales. He wasn't always interested in exotic foreign travel and meeting interesting people from different countries, as he started off his educational career teaching French in Northampton. He didn't really want to be a French teacher and, while you would think not wanting to teach French to people who didn't want to learn it might be a match made in heaven, it was only ever really a stepping stone. His main ambition was to work with young people in the areas that most fascinated him then and in which he has become such an important figure today – thinking, learning, motivation, creativity and helping all members of the school community be the best they can be. Through his many books including the ever-popular Thunks collection, his ongoing classroom work with children and young people, his keynotes and workshops at conferences around the world and his continuous work with teachers and leaders in schools, Ian has shown a whole generation of educators that there is always another way. Following a chance meeting in the staff room, Ian was encouraged to set up Independent Thinking in 1994 and, since then, has built up a unique educational organisation that acts as a platform for some of the UK's leading innovative educators and school leaders as well as serving as a ‘lighthouse' for so many practitioners who might otherwise fall prey to the idea that silence is respect, obedience is behaviour, grades measure education and teaching and learning are the same thing.

Ian Gilbert is a globally renowned educational thinker, innovator, entrepreneur, speaker and award-winning editor and writer, who was listed by the IB magazine as one of their top 15 ‘educational visionaries'. Ian has authored many brilliant books including the Little Book of Thunks, Independent Thinking and Why do I need a teacher when I've got Google? - all three of which we discuss in this conversation. He is also a skilled editor and has curated and edited many more excellent tomes, including notably The Working Class: Poverty, Education and Alternative Voices. This is a fascinating conversation in which we discuss thunks - Ian's brilliant invention for making children's brains hurt; neoliberalism, the ideology that underpins so many of our educational woes; and our shared love of philosophy for children, an approach that has been in the headlines this week for all the wrong reasons. To name just a few juicy morsels. Here are some of the books we talked about in this podcast: The Little Book of Thunks - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005R25LKK/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0 A tin of thunks - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A-Tin-of-Thunks-by-Ian-Gilbert-/164501869061?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5337839255&customid=&toolid=10001 Independent thinking - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00GY5781Y/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p2_i5 Why do I need a teacher when I've got Google? - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00LC9DHT4/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p2_i3 The Working Class: Poverty, Education and Alternative Voices - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07BB8GP3F/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i2 The Rethinking Education podcast is hosted and produced by Dr James Mannion.

Would you rather a family member married a traffic warden or a millionaire con artist? Would a Martian know a beautiful woman if it saw one? Is it better to do your best and lose than it is to perform below par and win? If a waiter leaves an item off the bill and you say nothing, is that stealing? Are you a different person by the end of each day? Could you ever learn too much? If your name is part of who you are, would someone with the same name as you have a similar identity? If cows evolved to be cleverer, should we stop eating them? Can you be afraid of fairies? If I read a magazine in a shop without paying for it, is that stealing? Would a baby born on a deserted island know right from wrong? If genetic research identifies that you have a condition that means you will die in ten years, should you be told, whether you want to know or not? Is it okay for your job to be really boring if it pays well? Would you be happy if you had all you wanted? Would you play Russian roulette with 1 in 10 chance, if winning meant you got $100,000,000? Would you take your dream holiday for one month, if it meant you couldn't remember it?
