Unlearn16: Class is in Session

In this episode, I attempt to answer a couple of age old teaching questions.   One, what are the most vital things we are meant to teach?  Two, when a student doesn't meet expectations what consequences will make them change their course?

In this episode, I recap what Metro Prep Academy did on Truth and Reconciliation Day.  Spoiler Alert - the next generation will always do better than we did - just get out of their way.

In this episode, I jump into what real?  Can't trust an email, a text message, a phone call...you can't trust what you hear or see across any medium.  Now what?  

I guess it's time we met up in person, had a conversation and lived in the actual moment??

In this episode, I jump into the past...jump into the past to decide if perception matters more than fact.  If you believe it to be true, does it matter if it isn't?  And if you write the history books, can you solidify perception into fact?

In this episode, the FIRST of season 4, I jump right into the international student controversy within the halls of Canadian classrooms - both secondary and post secondary.  The question I ask is simple - why aren't we building an educational system that can directly compete with student from all over the world so we become the centre of education?  

Answer - no one is willing to spend the money and would rather complain their kid, who has mastered all levels of Zelda, should have gotten a full scholarship to U of T.

In this episode, I dive into the muddy waters of censorship, oligarchies, rebellions and delusions.  Which side do you think the billionaires fall on?

In this episode, I dive deep into the controversy surrounding Algeria's boxer and into the pool of sexism, bias and and the wide wide world of sport.  Do you think it is time to create a fair playing field in sport?  We are going to need a bigger boat.

In this episode, Ana Pac and I sit down to discuss the 2024 Summer Olympics - the opening ceremonies, the best events and the worst outfits.  We also make some informed decisions on events we would be best suited to win.

In this episode, I jump into the world of running a school.  Am I scared?  Terrified?  Nervous?  Yes, to all of the above.  Is it the best thing I have ever done?  Again, yes.

Let's see what kind of magic we can create.

In this episode, I discuss how you learn how to teach while you teach.  If you aren't trying to learn and better yourself every single year then you have stopped teaching.  The two are intrinsically connected.
