SHAPE Shorts Podcast

What does SPACE actually mean? Matter? Time? These topics have been stimulating throughout history, but most people think of this subjects as a matter of Physics, the subject. This episode aims to bring you a different perspective and convince you that you do, in fact, love Physics more than you think.

The passion that out guest, Dave Reynolds, brings to the stage regarding the students he teaches in his GED program is incredible! Join us on this episode of the SHAPE Shorts Podcast where we investigate the challenges of the internal learner (e.g. self-starter) and the external learner. We discuss how classroom community spreads joy in the learning process and how infectious the internal learner can be for external learnings in the GED classroom. And, of course, we chat about how COVID-19 has caused catastrophe in GED programs.

Why is a 5 year old so much more curious than a high school student? Or better yet, an adult?
 
Why did we ask so many questions when we were children but started only caring about the results of a test or an assessment as we get older?
 
How do we cultivate curiosity and creativity through education? This episode aims to offer solutions to that very question.

Join us as we discuss how Native American higher education works to blend tribal beliefs with modern science and understanding. Our guest, Josh Hoskinson, STEM Program Coordinator at Tohono O’odham Community College shares how, historically, education attempted to strip tribal people of their beliefs in order to help them better understand western science. Modern tribal education seeks to blend tradition and western science in order to maintain cultural integrity.
