Tell Me This

Welcome to another season of Tell Me This. Brianne and I are so excited to share our summer research, stories, and plan for the upcoming season. Over the past year or so, our curious around connections between belonging and grief have blossomed into summer research projects, creative writing pieces, and intense, hard, and beautiful conversations. Through all of this work, we also recognize that while we have each have personal stories of grief, we are missing and wanting to hear diverse and varied stories from others. Season 6 will center on stories of grief and belonging where courageous and vulnerable guests share their own stories and journeys in grief.

This first episode provides more context and our thoughts and learning about universal and unique experience of grief.

We hope you will listen along this season.

We hope you enjoy our conversation with Drs. Barbour and Clark as much as we did. Picking up on our conversation earlier in the spring, we were interested in exploring AI in education. If you also have questions, curiosities, concerns, and wonders about AI, this might be the podcast for you. We came to this conversation with some AI experience (mostly ChatGPT), no expertise in this area, and lots of questions and left with more questions and some ideas on how we might use AI in our work and life.

Hope you enjoy!!

Hello Everyone.
We are so excited to welcome back Dr. Paula Clark and Dr. Kristin Barbour for what we are calling an Education Roundtable. It has been too long since the four of us gathered around our virtual zoom room and talked about the books, articles, and other topics on our minds. In part one of our roundtable, we discuss Hope and Help and scratch the surface into why many kids in K-12 do not like school. 
Hope you enjoy!

No - Brianne and I are not snowed in but this article and the weather in the town provided an opportunity for one researcher to explore the every day experiences of belonging. We often forget that belonging is grounded in people, places, and our history. Brianne and I share the article and the discoveries and questions that emerged for us.
Enjoy!

Brianne and I had so much fun revisiting and sharing a very recent article about school belonging. In it, Dr. Kuttner, a professor at the University of Utah, writes about how multiple perspectives inform his definition of school belonging. We discuss the importance of agency, intersectionality, systems, and others.

We hope you enjoy this episode.

Hello Everyone!
I bet you were starting to wonder if we were ever coming back. We are BACK! We are so excited to emerge from our six months of deep thinking, coding, and writing. We are grateful for the time and thrilled to share what we are learning from this process. Enjoy the first of many conversations during the second half of this season.

We are so excited to share our conversation with Dr. Vanessa May. Dr. May is a sociologist and researcher who studies belonging in the context of place. We had so much fun getting to talk with Dr. May and exploring some of the questions she examines in her research.

Hope you enjoy.

Hello Everyone.
Please take a listen to this beautiful conversation that Brianne and I were lucky enough to be a part of with Janine McGuire. It was an amazing journey into Janine's early music days at camp, sharing ideas and music across the distance, and her current work in musical theatre. She shares her views on belonging, music and story, and much more.

I know you are going to love this one!

Take care,
Carey
