In this episode, Leigha, Nevin, Julia, Kiersten, and Sarah interviewed Thomas Manning, a cybernetician from London working with college students about their well-being and motivation. He also touched on how he brings these theories of student motivation and self-efficacy when teaching students with ASD.

Welcome to the Metagames podcast. Based on an appropriation of the co-authored book that emerged from heuristics syllabi implemented by Heinz von Foerster at the University of Illinois Urbana in the 60s and 70s, the podcast involves conversations between students preparing to be teachers (preservice) and inservice teachers, college professors and peers to actively "observe" and decode what both teaching and learning mean to them, in real time. The result is a Metagame; one that allows these teachers in preparation, and their instructor to be confident in navigating the complex landscape of the learning sciences through the reference frame of both everyday and classroom experience.

Esther is a Musician, Songwriter, and Audio Engineer.  She earned her Certificate in Audio Production from Boston University.  As an artist on the autism spectrum, she uses music as a primary form of expression.

Scream Therapy is a podcast about using punk rock as a catalyst for mental health. My guests are other members of the punk music scene who, like me, have lived experience with mental health challenges.
