S5 R03 - Mike Give Grace with Others Tough Choices
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.
Intro/Outro music - "A Walk" by Bad Religion

S5 R02 - Josh On Joining A Culture
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.

Customer Reviews
Rock-Star Podcast
Mike and Josh really push the boundaries of how to improve campus culture, classroom practices and educational goals. I love their perspective and passion for helping educators from around the world.
Passion, Unity, & DIY
The Punk Rock Classrooms Podcast is the show I never knew I needed! Josh & Mike bring it every week and show just how closely related education and punk really are. A must listen for all educators, even if you aren’t into punk.
Punk!
Mike and Josh really break down what having a #punkrockclassroom should be like, even if you aren’t a punk. The lessons and reflections they share can be applied to every classroom and every educator.
