Jethro Jones hosts today's episode as he speaks with Dr. Alison Escalante about her book Sigh, See, Start: How to Be the Parent Your Child Needs in a World That Won’t Stop Pushing.
ShouldStorm - Culture of perfectionism and criticismWe as parents want to do what is best for our kids, but we are bombarded by everyone telling us what we should and should not do. Finding the “right” answer.Defining “expert”How the ShouldStorm impacts our kidsWe like to blame social media, but it really comes from what we talk about in our communities. What matters is not the college but the student.If you play someone else’s game, you will always lose, if you’re playing your own game, you can’t lose. Sigh, See, Start: transitions you from the anxiety of the ShouldStorm, to connection with your kids. The sigh is a built-in mechanism in our bodies, breathe out long and slow - sends a message to our body that we are OK. Vagus nerve turns on prefrontal cortex. See - moment of mindfulness - see your child. Noticing, not doing. Start - run an experiment about how to help the situation. Built on a faith that is scientifically grounded, you (and your kids) are more capable than you think (and than the world will tell you are). Emphasizing repairFind the book Sigh, See, Start on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3WN7mud

Today I'm excited to share an episode of Make It Mindful, one of the newest shows in the Be Podcast Network. This wonderful show peels back the layers on today's educational challenges with mindfulness and compassion. Hosts Seth, Lauren, and Komal tap research and insights from innovators, psychologists and teachers to understand what’s really going on for students and educators. Subscribe to Make It Mindful here: https://makeitmindful.transistor.fm
About the episode:
In this episode of Make It Mindful, host Seth Fleischauer engages with Justin Reich, an MIT faculty member who critically examines the rapid evolution of AI and its implications in the educational landscape. Reich provides a nuanced perspective, challenging the prevailing excitement around AI's exponential growth and its integration into educational settings. He discusses the historical context of AI development, notably the shift from GPT-3 to GPT-3.5, and raises concerns about the sustainability of improvements in AI technologies given the finite nature of data sources. Reich also explores the classification of technologies as either adoption or arrival technologies, with AI posing unique challenges due to its sudden and pervasive emergence. Throughout the discussion, Reich emphasizes the importance of understanding AI's operational mechanics and advocates for a thoughtful and informed approach to integrating AI in educational practices, highlighting potential risks and the need for a critical assessment of new tools. His insights urge educators to consider both the immediate and long-term effects of AI on teaching and learning dynamics.Guest Links:
