Shoutout to Google Gemini for helping Professor Grinsteinner organize her stream of consciousness regarding reinforcement, punishment, and public, private, and group consequences into a semi-coherent outline!

The acronym CPPE is very familiar to all DSU teacher education students--let's make that the case for teachers everywhere!

Schools around the country continue to struggle with the cell phone question--should students be allowed to have their devices? What if a school doesn't have the resources to provide 1-to-1 devices for students? What about parents who are upset and want their students to be able to contact in cases of emergency? This week we look at a research study exploring the effects of cell phone bans, and we also have a special guest share some insight!

We are back after a short break! This week is largely focused on banter with a discussion about InTASC Standard 10.

This week we share another of Professor Grinsteinner's sessions from the NBEA convention in Cincinnati. Even though we've talked flipped lessons on the podcast before, we thought this was a great refresher on the topic (plus it includes some great questions and interaction from the audience!).

A goal of every effective teacher is to create meaningful learning experiences in their classrooms. Sometimes the best way to do this is to break out of the four walls of the school building. Professor Crossingham shares about the experience her students have visiting Cannonball Elementary tribal school and suggests ways for teachers to promote constructivism in their classes.

Coming to you live from the National Business Education Association annual convention in Cincinnati! Professor Grinsteinner recorded her session on how to redesign assignments to help stem the tide of cheating with AI.

We dissect an article that advocates for less grading in the classroom, but as we move through we realize the problem maybe isn't too much grading but rather poor grading practices.

I'm wondering if this week's title is going to cause some contention...give it a listen and email us if you think it does!

This one's for you, Swifties! We are celebrating the drop of Taylor's new album (well, Professor Crossingham is celebrating. Professor Grinsteinner is supporting her love of Tay-Tay) by discussing how to connect lessons to student interests and pop culture phenomena.
