Summer Conversation Series - 06
Brent Coley and Casey Jakuboswki

The PRC Summer Conversation Series continues!

One of the cool things about summer and punk rock is all the big shows and festivals. A ton of bands getting together and putting on one giant show! We decided to try and do the same thing with our Summer Conversation Series. We wanted to bring as many people on as possible to answer the question, what is one thing you would do to change education?

On this episode Mike sits down with two of his fellow Edumatch Publishing Authors to and asks them to answer our summer conversation series question. Brent Coley, author of Stories of Eduinfluence discussing inequities in school funding while Casey Jakubowski, author of Thinking About Teaching, focuses on the way we engage students about their own work.

So get your wristband on and get ready for the PRC Summer Conversation Series!

Summer Conversation Series 06 - Brent Coley and Casey Jakubowski

S3 Punk Rock Reflection 01 – Josh on Imposter Syndrome

On this Punk Rock Reflection, Josh talks about something he is struggling with as he takes on his new role as a Title I Specialist this year, “Imposter Syndrome.” He feels a little like some punk rock jerk is hanging out in the back of his mind calling him a poser all day. What are the things he’s using to help him feel less like an imposter and more of a learner? Well, relying on his crew, dropping his ego, and of course bringing a healthy dose of the DIY learn everything you can about it attitude.

Remember, you’re not a poser. You’re just new to the scene. So lace up your chuck taylors and jump in the pit!

S3 Punk Rock Reflection 03 – Josh on Resilience and Reactions

On this Punk Rock Reflection, Josh digs a little deeper into his conversation with Mike from our last episode. Sometimes serendipity strikes and you are hit with the right quote and the right thing to read and after our last episode Josh came across a excerpt from Elena Aguilar’s book Onward about resilience that hit just at the right time. He shares what he read, how he’s taking it in and how it connects to the last episode.

So, keep reading. You never know when you find that thing that’ll connect to what your going through or with what your feeling.

S3 Episode 09 – First Semester Check In

On this episode, Josh and Mike discuss their successes and struggles during the first semester of the school year. They each had some moments they want to celebrate and a couple they want to learn from and do better with in the next semester.

S3 Episode 11 – Educational Mission and Punk Rock Ethos

Conviction, drive, and passion make great punk rock. They also make a for creating a educational mission. On this episode Josh and Mike talk Fugazi, Youth of Today, and the idea of Punk Rock Ethos and how it relates to crafting a personal educational mission. They both share their own visions, how they crafted them, what they mean to them, and why they believe that educators should make their vision, reflect on it, and use it to guide what they do every day.

So, what’s your mission? What’s your ethos? Are you living it?

S3 E11 - Educational Mission And Punk Rock Ethos

S3 Collaboration 06 with Alfonso Mendoza Jr.

One of the awesome things we would see in punk is at shows when musicians from different bands would join forces on stage or when one of your favorite punk singers would lend their growl to some gang vocals on another band's record.

We wanted to create that same thing here at PRC.

On this punk rock collaboration, Josh chats with Alfonso Mendoza Jr. AKA: Fonz! They chat about his podcast/youtube show My EdTech Life, what the best tech tool is, and how it got into teaching and supporting teachers in his district with Educational Technology.

So let’s get techy with it!

Reflection is an important part of what we believe in here at xPRCx. Working on ourselves to better parts of our community, better educators, and better people. If we want our scene to be one where we all get better, we need to reflect on where we are at and what we have done.

On this episode Mike is talking about getting out of our comfort zones and maybe compromising to help the people we serve and the people we support. Mike isn’t good at basketball, and he’ll tell ya all about it.  

So, lace up your converse and hit the court.

S4 Throwback – Episdoe 32 Transitions and Interveiws

Every once in a while, it’s good to go and check out the classics. Since Josh is prepping for those principal interviews that are right around the corner, we thought it would be apt to share our conversation from Season 2 Episode 32.

It’s interview season and on this episode Josh asks Mike about making that change from classroom teacher to building leader. They also discuss interviews, what Mike looks for as a building leader when he interviews candidates and about that time Josh was maybe a little too honest about his messy desk in an interview.

So polish up your resume and lets start the show.

S4 Episode 11 – New to the Scene

Everyone has to be new to the scene at some point. It’s either your first time at a venue, the first time at a show, or in education it’s the first time at your new school or grade level. 

As Josh prepares to make that jump to Principal, he’ll once again be the new person in the scene at his new school. So on this episode, the punks discuss what its like to be the new person in the scene, what we did when we were new to be a part of it, what we do to welcome people in, and what are some of the questions that come up in an interview when you are trying to be new to the scene at a campus.

So, lets welcome the new folks to the scene!

Reflection is an important part of what we believe in here at xPRCx. Working on ourselves to better parts of our community, better educators, and better people. If we want our scene to be one where we all get better, we need to reflect on where we are at and what we have done.

Josh is using his reflections this year to look at his first year as an Assistant Principal. He is sharing what is going well, what he is struggling with, and just what’s going on. On this episode he shares about taking his own punk rock classrooms advice and knowing that you can’t do it all. He shares how he is struggling with not being able to be everything to every one but also the good in making sure that you have your team of people with you, your scene or your crew, to help get the work done.

So remember, its not a solo act. So grab your band and get the work done together.

Mike was not ready or his 8 mile run but he still gave it a shot. It was not easy. He knew it wasn’t going to go like he wanted it to but he kept going and muscled through. Sometimes life is like that. Sometimes work is like that. Sometimes we know a day is going to suck even before it starts but when the end result is important, we get it done. On this episode Mike shares about muscling through to get it done.

S5 E01 - Its Been A Quarter

S5 Reflection 02 Josh – Joining a Culture 

Reflection is an important part of what we believe in here at xPRCx. Working on ourselves to better parts of our community, better educators, and better people. If we want our scene to be one where we all get better, we need to reflect on where we are at and what we have done.

For Josh’s first reflection of the year, he is talking about how he is navigating becoming a part of the culture already established on his new campus. He talks about four things he is doing to ingrain himself in the culture and add his personality and ideas to it. So, listen to him share how he is being visible, doing the work, participating, and changing it up when needed on this Punk Rock Reflection.

Intro/Outro music - "A Walk" by Bad Religion

S5 Reflection 03 – Mike Giving Grace to Others Tough Choices

Reflection is an important part of what we believe in here at xPRCx. Working on ourselves to better parts of our community, better educators, and better people. If we want our scene to be one where we all get better, we need to reflect on where we are at and what we have done.

Mike had some snow days and it got him thinking about the decisions leaders have to make and how everyone is human. There are lots of factors and context that we might not always see from the outside.
