🏆🎓 Nominated: Teacher of the Year Award The jury surprised the nominated teachers in the top five this week. Each of them is to receive an individual education bonus of one thousand euros, to be spent as they wish. One of them is Sjouke Anne Kingma. The winner will be presented with a special sculpture on 10 December. Kingma: ‘Fantastic, a huge honour! Students’ appreciation motivates me. It gives me energy. I invest much energy in my teaching, and the fact that this does not go unnoticed is great. This is certainly an incentive to do the very best I can to deliver top-quality education. The students deserve it.’ 🦜 Dr. Sjouke Kingma is interested in why animals live in groups and whether and how the social environment determines individuals' behaviour and physiology and their ultimate success in survival and reproduction. His work integrates conceptual and comparative work with field observations, molecular genetic analyses and experiments, working on several different social species. His current work is centered around establishing how group membership is regulated and how conflict among individuals is resolved.

The benefit of a small school like Oglethorpe University are the profoundly meaningful relationships students form with their professors. I think Mackenzie Roberson and Karen Schmeichel illustrate this perfectly in this “Dear Professor” video. #highereducation #studentsuccess #faculty https://lnkd.in/gd63ssjV

Springhouse is an intergenerational, vitality-centered learning community where we are fundamentally transforming the purpose and practice of education.
"As Octavia Butler and countless others have observed, change is omnipresent – in nature, in ourselves, and in our consciousness. Our challenge lies in comprehending these shifts in consciousness to facilitate personal and collective transformation. Nature’s dynamic is change. Humans change. Our consciousness changes. Our challenge is to understand the changes in consciousness so that we organize ourselves and our world to bring forth transformation." ~ Ba & Josette Luvmour Ba Luvmour and Josette Luvmour were my academic advisors during my master's at Antioch University in Transformative Learning Communities. For those of you interested in transformative education and human development, Ba and Josette offer a holistic and dynamic approach called Natural Learning Relationships. Read more in this article published in the ReImagining Magazine by Theodore Richards an/or take a NLR course offered by the Transformative Learning Foundation. https://lnkd.in/eZ9aahDq https://lnkd.in/evYQAzVf **Photo of my linoleum print.**

Research Evidence Based Practices. What does it mean? E. evidence-based decisions can be tainted with self-interest. E. cast-iron evidence can get rusty later on. E. evidence-based principles are used very selectively. E.evidence isn't always self-evident. E. evidence on what to change isn't the same as how to change. E.positive initiatives based on evidence in one area can inflict collateral damage E. people can cook the data E. evidence-based teaching is only somewhat like evidence-based medicine E. evidence comes from experience as well as research (adapted from Hargreaves and Fullan, p. 47). https://lnkd.in/g85e7HkS › intro...
