Emma & Tom Talk Teaching

Emma O'Dubhchair & Tom Breeze
Podcast de Emma & Tom Talk Teaching

We’re Emma (PGCE Secondary Drama) and Tom (PGCE Secondary Music) from Cardiff Metropolitan University. Welcome to our podcast, in which we muse about the joys of working with student teachers, the expressive arts, research, and teaching in general. Expect deep discussions, topical debates, celebrations of great practice, and things to steal for your own lessons! Our primary audience is student teachers and early-career teachers, but we hope there's something here for everyone who's involved in the world of education, whether you're new or experienced. Most of our episodes involve a main discussion (often with one or more guests), and two regular slots: something interesting and something to try. And when we hit the holidays, we bring out some weird and wonderful talking points from the internet and just have a chat.

    Currere with Dr Kevin Smith

    Strap in and prepare yourselves for another roller-coaster ride as regular guest Dr Kevin Smith from Cardiff University is back in the studio, and this time he's brought sweets!Kev is here to talk about Currere, an approach to considering curriculum which might be refreshing to those of us who work in the world of education. We'll leave it to Kev to explain all about it, but you can also find a list of resources and links below. Dr Kev says:https://www.currereexchange.com/currere-exchange-journal.html (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currereexchange.com%2Fcurrere-exchange-journal.html&data=05%7C02%7Ctbreeze%40cardiffmet.ac.uk%7Ce48b18b7aadc430ea07508dc64fa5d7e%7C189dc61c769b40488b0f6de074bba26c%7C0%7C0%7C638496273690222899%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=QQMfTSq16jnhGyg82KUzXQTzV9jK6%2FjTkNobQLP52k8%3D&reserved=0) - this is the Currere Exchange Journal. It is a journal solely dedicated to Currere work and welcomes submissions from everyone teachers, academics, etc. They also offer a 'Currere exchange' event where people take part in, and learn about, the currere method. This year it is a virtual event (here are the details: https://www.currereexchange.com/registration.html (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currereexchange.com%2Fregistration.html&data=05%7C02%7Ctbreeze%40cardiffmet.ac.uk%7Ce48b18b7aadc430ea07508dc64fa5d7e%7C189dc61c769b40488b0f6de074bba26c%7C0%7C0%7C638496273690237418%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=aEqhdnyObjbXpzRqtZBZ4F%2BSDY3LuiuYirXxgpjm7xQ%3D&reserved=0)).  https://journal.jctonline.org/index.php/jct (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjournal.jctonline.org%2Findex.php%2Fjct&data=05%7C02%7Ctbreeze%40cardiffmet.ac.uk%7Ce48b18b7aadc430ea07508dc64fa5d7e%7C189dc61c769b40488b0f6de074bba26c%7C0%7C0%7C638496273690248847%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=p%2FSO9ofvl4Rgq0oL52wckaiYS7ktBg%2B03vQS6BcjRJU%3D&reserved=0) - this is the link to the Journal of Curriculum Theorising. My friend/colleague Tom Poetter is currently the editor, but he is stepping down this year after a long, six-year stint. They have just released the older issues from the 70s/80s that had key publications in critical, reconceptualist approaches to curriculum, so definitely worth browsing! They also have an annual conference (http://www.jctonline.org/conference/ (https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jctonline.org%2Fconference%2F&data=05%7C02%7Ctbreeze%40cardiffmet.ac.uk%7Ce48b18b7aadc430ea07508dc64fa5d7e%7C189dc61c769b40488b0f6de074bba26c%7C0%7C0%7C638496273690259924%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=y%2B2PdOnJHKPur0Q%2BkIICU17aEBSkincVxib4fGWglME%3D&reserved=0) in October.). Bill Pinar, who developed the currere method and introduced 'reconceptualist' approaches to curriculum is one of the keynote speakers. Also, here is the URL to my blog that has a few posts related to 'currere' as well as other topics we've discussed in other episodes:
