How many borders have you crossed? Author Salman Rushdie, who was brutally attacked on stage earlier this month, knows a lot about borders. His books explore the concept of borders; he’s lived them. He often reminded us that we don’t simply cross borders; sometimes the border crosses us.
I know a thing about borders. On a train, crossing from Germany to Czechoslovakia, stopped by heavily armed border guards. In Northern Ireland...But what about borders that are not just geographical lines in the sand?
In this episode I explore what happens when we cross those fine, and sometimes blurry lines. At school in our daily morning assembly --what we call ‘Opening Ceremony’ --our hosts often bring up topics like this. Topics of inclusiveness; why “Everybody counts, or nobody counts.” And why instead of borders we draw around ourselves, we should be expanding our 'circles' of influence.

A hotly contested Student Government (STUGO) election this year brought out the best in our student body in Sept. 2023. Leaders like Gavin, Ryland, Adrien and Alivia were ready to hit the ground running. So for this episode, I decided to pull them in for this special episode to talk about their ideas and how they will represent the middle school. By the way, three of them are familiar with being in front of a mic - having hosted student podcasts at the end of the year in my class, in 2022. A programming note : This is the final episode of Radio 201, as I transition to a new podcast, ' Wide Angle .' Stay tuned!…
So much goes on in a school, we sometimes take these things for granted. In my class, there's a constant flurry of activity after school in robotics and eSports, besides tutoring, and students popping in to do homework, quizzes, and edit eBooks. And outside these walls, too! So in this episode I wanted to put together a collection of recordings I made, that capture the force field I encounter every day when I open these doors, and carry with me when I leave. Including a snapshot of an amazing speaker I recorded one morning at one of our morning assemblies.…
In this episode, my last podcast for the school year, I invite you to listen to the best student podcasts out of my computer lab. You'll be amazed at the topics and the discussion that ensues. Listen to Xander, Braxton and Anthony discuss social media (they called it "What's wrong with this generation?" ), Josh and his 9th grade brother Adam discuss coding ( "Coding Games" ). Gavin interviews 9th grader Andrew about the airforce program known as 'CAP' ( "A Cadet's guide to CAP" ). Ava and Georgia discuss orchestra ("Symphony Wars") weighing in on leadership issues. Gia and Magnolia discuss historical fiction that they have published as their eBook project in my class ( "Book Talk" ). Emmit was so taken up with history he interviews his favorite teacher, Mr. Greer. These were just a smattering of the 15 podcasts recorded last week! We grownups tend to say that kids say the darndest things. It gets better when we put a mic in front of them! Enjoy!…
Being a teacher, I’ve heard it said all too often — “Schools don’t teach these anymore!” Or that what’s being taught in schools is outdated. In this podcast you'll hear Dave Conelias talk about what school can and should do. Dave, founder of MilestoneC, an organization that helps bridge that gap between the supply (schools) and demand (industry) speaks his mind about the good, the bad, and the overhyped in tech. I asked him to weigh in on AI and other emerging tech since I interviewed him a few days after Google announced it would release its own AI, known as Bard , in an apparent mad rush to compete with all the ChatGPT hype. I wanted to know what aspect of this ‘Generative Pretrained Transformer’ (the GPT part of the ChatGPT) was showing up on his radar. His analogies are fabulous. It was so good I took out my interjections in the interview (by the way, this podcast goes through some heavy duty editing to tighten things up), so as to keep it to just around 11 minutes. If you're a student, this will give you some useful context. If you're a parent or a not-tech person, I hope this addresses some of the questions you probably have. Enjoy!…
In my 40th podcast, I wanted to try out a new way to record it with a remote guest: Podcastle. It's a web-based platform that records multiple voices - a bit like Zoom. My guest, was Don Wilde, a software engineer and entrepreneur who once worked at Intel. Don helped me with my Robotics team many years ago. His insights into software and technology through the years has been truly inspiring. In this podcast, we talk about the inherent bias in software that doesn't happen by accident. The discussion is particularly important to us as we unpack that can of worms we call AI, and the data sets that are being used to train the software. Machines do learn from machines, but the 'data' (images, words, values etc) we feed into these machines will influence what we get out of them. The old adage, 'garbage in, garbage out' has become relevant again. Bias in, Bias out , so to speak.…
This short episode is based on a recording of a talk by dance teacher Melanie Ellis, who spoke to our students during our morning assembly, Opening Ceremony at Benjamin Franklin High School. Ellis draws on an anecdote culled from from construction, from the book, " The Anatomy of Peace ," to explore what it means to gain wisdom through mistakes. The idea of having 'to justify' something has two dimensions. The first, which comes from construction, is about making something right. To justify or fix a wall, that is crooked. The second, is what we sometimes resort to when we wiggle out of a problem - using a justification not in keeping with our character. This point nicely dovetailed with the quote of the week, from Marcel Proust, "We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us."…
Another live podcast! This time with three members of the cast of Beauty and the Beast. Josh Williams , Preston Hilton and Cammie Roberts . This follows the highly acclaimed High School musical in February with a cast of hundreds, fabulous sets, stunning vocals and a our amazing orchestra.
It's about two months since AI apps sprayed their pixie dust all across the Internet. The impact of AI on education --and all content -- is a reality we must face. So I wanted to check things out and run these apps through some testing. I wanted to check my own biases, too, and get to know what it content will look like. I put ChatGPT through several tests, and also the design app, Dall.E. In this podcast I explain how these panned out, and how we teachers are approaching this new wave. For now at least I have come to the conclusion that Content creators of the world — authors, journalists, copywriters, podcasters — shouldn’t feel threatened. But as one expert I heard explain, while we are peering into the machine's 'intelligence' --while we are testing these out - we are actually being lured into being the beta testers of the machines!…
Over the past five years, my computer class has expanded into so many other areas that I I sometimes wonder if it should be rebranded as a Communications class. This struck me as I was grading my finals this week, wrapping things up. With about 125 students across six classes my time seems to be devoted to (a) Reading and analyzing their eBooks (b) Mixing down and uploading their class podcasts (c) Planning a photography 101 class for the last day of school. That, in addition to teaching keyboarding, and discussing relevant news each week whether it’s cybersecurity or crypto or the latest development in Google 'Moonshot Factory.' Or the usual social media’s hiccups that week that turns into a ‘teachable moment.’ In this podcast you'll hear clips from selected student podcasts hosted here in the Computer Lab in the week before finals. These podcasts covered topics such as: Screen Time, History, Global pollution, Books, Secrets Of The Amazon, Symphony Wars, 'Is Dance a Sport?', one called 'Economics Breakdown,' one on J.K. Rowling’s Genius, a review of The Black Widow, Lucid Akinator, Wrestling, a Game-show, one about the Rubik’s Craze, and some on school culture --the Charger Lifestyle- and Sports. You could find them all here .…
Another live podcast inc the gym! Trinity Wright and I co-host this podcast. At the table is the new Assistant Principal of Benjamin Franklin High School, Kristine Pullins. Also on the show is senior at large, Vance McMillen. There's plenty of advice to go around, in keeping with the morning Opening Ceremony, during which this podcast was recorded! This podcast is also featured on Fully Charged , the other podcast I produce at the school.…
This podcast was recorded before a live audience in the gym during 'Opening Ceremony,' our morning assembly. It was a first for me, to record a 'live' show. I asked Jessica Keaster to co-host it with me because of two special guests on this show: Reina Ley and Landon Madsen . Reina was on NBC's The Voice , earlier this month (Sept 2022). Also this month, Landon performed at our talent show, Franklin's Got Talent , and won third place. Both performances revealed something about all our students - the often unspoken talent rushing these hallways, juggling between classes and athletic events, and practicing their 'art' whenever they can. Mrs. Keaster and I have had the privilege of having you students in our classes, so this podcast is our way of celebrating your achievements, with the hope it inspires others at Benjamin Franklin High School! This podcast also served as an assignment for students in my zero-hour elective, Writing and Publishing in the Digital Age . They set up the cameras, and mics, and will be using this event for an upcoming 'story.' Getting the audio right in a large space like a gymnasium is tricky, to say the least. But I love the challenge. After all, this podcast, produced in the Computer Lab, a place where we experiment! Notes: When Reina Ley performed on The Voice , judges Gwen Stefani and Camila Cabello competed to have her on their team. I included a clip from that event here because it gives listeners better context as to why this was a momentous event. Audio for parts of this podcast were taken from the video camera feed, and from my back-up podcasting recorder, a ZoomH4N Pro . If you sense a change in quality, that's why. It's quite an interesting challenge editing three feeds. Audio feeds from two mics through were piped through an audio interface called the Scarlet Focusrite. I am grateful to our Boosters, who provided funds for this.…
What could Steve Jobs, the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, and Voting have in common? You'd be surprised! My guest on this show is Steve Niemeyer, a math teacher at Benjamin Franklin High School. He recently conducted an impromptu 'experiment' at our morning assembly that he hosted. Mr. Niemeyer demonstrated how a very small percentage of people end up making decisions on behalf of the majority, especially if the majority is apathetic, doesn't voice their opinion, or exercise their civic right. The larger point was to inspire young people to expand their circle of influence. There's a wonderful anecdote about how Steve Jobs used to do this with his employees - a story I learned this from a guest speaker in my class who had worked at Apple. As for that law of thermodynamics, you've got to listen how only a math teacher could put it in context!…

Queen. Humperdinck. Even Eilish? The record industry is on a roll. What's with this vinyl LP trend? Why the throwback to old music formats, even while Apple Music and Spotify dominate? There's something about vinyl. Just ask Taylor Swift, or Billie Eilish who have released new albums on technology that goes back to Thomas Edison. It's good for business. I've seen it said that vinyl sales spiked another 61 percent and topped $1 billion for the first time in more than 35 years. In this podcast I'll talk not just about our love of old tech formats, but about 'media.' Old and new media formats, and platforms, are of particular interest to me, especially in my Writing and Publishing class. I'd love to have your comments: Reach me at afernando@bfcsaz.com and tell me about your favorite vinyl albums, and what drives this trend. Hope you enjoy the show.…
In a classical school, fine arts is often seen as the icing on the cake, especially here at Benjamin Franklin High School. Our music program attracts thousands of people, especially this year, with our a new Franklin Center For The Performance Arts. This podcast looks at how the music and theater program come together as a 'fine art.' Specifically, I dropped in on one of Mrs. Haylee Otero's classes as she put together the annual choir concert. It was just a few weeks after the musical, Bye Bye Birdie , with a cast of more than seventy-five. You'll hear how teaching takes place on stage, which is obviously a very different environment from a classroom. (When the sage is literally off the stage!) I also asked her about how she manages the logistics of a production: From choreography and props, to lighting, and sound ..the period costumes, and making sure the wireless mics come through! She has talented, passionate colleagues, the Boosters, and of course dedicated students. "It's a very, organic, creative process," says Otero. "At a certain point you hand it off to the students, and it no longer becomes my material." Hopefully, you get to peek under the hood of 'musical theater' at its best. Enjoy!…
