“Good feedback is THE most powerful tool you can use to help teachers improve. And yet, you can never have the impact you want to have with teachers if you are accidentally killing their motivation and ability to act on your feedback.”
Robyn Jackson
“The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.”
John Buchan

What must leaders in education instill in those they mentor? As we step into an increasingly complex future, we need new models of teaching and discovery. Evan Mazunik talks about (and demonstrates) some of the most vital skills students need to survive and thrive in the 21st century.
Evan Mazunik creates contemporary music as a composer, pianist, director, and educator in Denver, CO. Despite starting piano lessons as a near-sighted 4-year-old with stage fright, Evan has discovered the joy of music through improvisation.
He conducts ensembles to play off the page using sign language for real-time composition. As a performer, he has played at creative music venues in NYC and Denver such as Dazzle, Roulette, and The Stone. As a composer, his commissions have included works for jazz bands, choirs, and various solo instruments and interdisciplinary works for theater, dance, and film.
As an educator, he has led master classes and workshops at the New School, MSU Denver, the University of Indiana, the Royal Academy of Music in London, and many others, both as a soloist and in collaboration with other teaching artists. Evan received a bachelor’s degree in piano performance and a Masters in jazz studies from the University of Iowa.

“To safeguard democracy the people must have a keen sense of independence, self-respect, and their oneness.”

“Patriotism can’t be our final spiritual shelter. I will not buy glass for the price of diamonds and I will never allow patriotism to triumph over humanity as long as I live.”

One Video of the Week:
When Sue Austin got a power wheelchair, she felt a tremendous sense of freedom — yet others looked at her as though she had lost something. In her art, she conveys the spirit of wonder she feels wheeling through the world. Includes thrilling footage of an underwater wheelchair that lets her explore ocean beds, drifting through schools of fish, floating free in 360 degrees.
Multimedia, performance, and installation artist Sue Austin keeps a fascinating mission at the center of her work: to challenge the idea of the disabled as “other” and represent her experience as a wheelchair user in a brighter light. She does this by creating quirky, unexpected juxtapositions — bringing a sense of whimsy and empowerment to the discussion of disability.
Austin is the founder and artistic director of Freewheeling, an initiative aiming to further the genre of Disability Arts. In 2012, she was asked to be a part of the Cultural Olympiad in Britain, a celebration of the arts leading up to the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The work she created for the event, called “Creating the Spectacle!,” is a groundbreaking series of live art and video works of an underwater wheelchair.

Health and Finance. Two very key life skills that need to be managed all through our adulthood are somehow much neglected to be taught as curriculum in our schools. What are some of such essential life skills? Are they supposed to be taught by parents? are they supposed to be learned by experience? How do we know that our children/students will learn it in good time and not leave it to chance? Would that be after they have been unable to manage or struggle through parts of their life, aspects which could have been easily taught alongside the 3 Rs? Both of which would most definitely impact their health and life circumstances – emotional and financial. What do you think? what age is your child and what chores, leading to life skills is your child/student able to manage? here are a few checklists and thoughts for you to ponder upon. What are the 21st century lifeskills and when do we start to teach them?
Me skills, We skills, Why skills, Will skills, Wiggle skills, Wobble skills, What if skills – beautifully explained by the very well-known and respected author and pediatrician Dr. Laura in the video of this week would give you much to think and act upon as parents and educators.

Two Thoughts of the Week:
Every kid in every school no matter their background, deserves to learn the basics about food – where it comes from, how to cook it, and how it affects their bodies. These life skills are as important as reading and writing, but they’ve been lost over the past few generations. We need to bring them back and bring up our kids to be streetwise about food.
– Jamie Oliver
Why can’t it be a curriculum? Why can’t it be a life skill that they learn just to look after themselves in terms of a healthy way of eating? I think we need to shake up that whole curriculum and give them a little bit more of a lifestyle early on, before they leave school at 18.
– Gordon Ramsay

What do you do when you are not working? when you are not doing ‘job’, ‘chore’, ‘routine’ ‘work’? What does your ‘leisure’ look like? What does your student do in his/her leisure? What does your child’s leisure look like? Cerebral activities, physical activities, hobbies that build up over time, or hobbies that are time/age/opportunity look like? here are some ideas for you as an educator, parent, and student. What do I do? I like going for nature walks, swimming, listening to music, reading, traveling, writing a blog, and connecting with people in no particular order. My favorite people are students and teachers as you would have guessed by now. I am looking to play piano more regularly, watch uplifting docu features, and do more of what I do already which is connecting with more parents, students, and educators in many and more ways.

Issue #159, 25th July 2023
Am I the better version of me or a different version of me since my last birthday? (continuing on my reflections in my birthday month) are you? is your child? is the school you are working in better/different because of your contribution than it was before you came in? what would you call it – comparison, competition, growth? How do you ensure that you don’t push your child, student, or peer into a corner of loneliness, depression, and dejection by comparisons and rankings that we have brought onto ourselves as a very grotesque form of survivalism that as a life sciences teacher appears to have been hardwired in us perhaps from 12,000 years ago when we started our existence as homo-sapiens? So deep is it in our subconscious? Today it feels to me, a kind of violence in the system of education. Something which is meant for nurturing growth and creativity in humanity.
Is there a method of judging yourself/your student/your child/your team without ‘judging’? Can we not walk away from the prehistoric habit of ranking? here are some thoughts and strategies to foster a mindset of supporting growth of intelligence of various kinds in various students and children, for a society that is happy, healthy and, intelligent in more ways than one. Where we value growth of individuals and groups in many different ways, ways that are not primitive, but is inclusive even if at different levels and varying paces.

Two Thoughts of the Week:
“Win or lose you will never regret working hard, making sacrifices, being disciplined or focusing too much. Success is measured by what we have done to prepare for competition.”— John Smith
“If we continue to think and live as if we belong only to different cultures and different religions, with separate missions and goals, we will always be in self-defeating competition with each other. Once we realize we are all members of humanity, we will want to compete in the spirit of love.”— Muhammad Ali
One Video of the Week:
Education is supposed to prepare us for life. However, our schools, colleges, and universities are solely designed to teach us some skills. Concentrating on teaching knowledge, the education system is entirely consumed by “The Ranking Disorder”; everything is ranked to find the best, and to be the best.
This has made the postsecondary institutions into aggressive trade schools with no deep understanding of learning and intelligence. The cutthroat nature of competition culture and its relentless attempt to quantify, compare and rank students, professors, and universities breeds psychological disorders like stress, anxiety, loneliness, and depression that occasionally erupt into physical violence: student suicide.
The ranking disorder appears to be a “grotesque derailment” in the evolution of human beings, a phenomenon that permeates all aspects of our lives. The right way of education has to be free from ranking and competitiveness; it should emphasize the discovery and nurturing of intelligence by learning to be sensitive, inquisitive, and compassionate.

In the talk, he spoke about his journey as a singer and how he “has always been Lucky” since childhood as his family belongs to cinema and theatre for ages. He developed an interest into singing at a very young age and described how his father made his first debut when he was born. He also spoke about his unembellished life where he likes to stay in the scenic and greenery areas of the city and how he usually travels the road untaken to achieve his goals. An important message that he enlightened us with was an eye-opener to today’s youth and all generations, he said “Until you fall, You cannot rise”. Lucky Ali, a man who remained true to his art, and at the age of 62, he is still pure gold! He is an Indian singer, songwriter, and actor. With several popular singles and albums like ‘O Sanam’, ‘Kaho Na Pyaar Hai’, ‘Bachna ae Haseeno’, ‘Tamasha’, ‘Anjaana Anjaani’ and many more, he emerged as a significant figure of Indipop during the 1990s. There is no road trip or travel which is complete without his songs on and we wish we could show him the indelible mark he has left on our hearts and that will continue to be the case for generations to come!

“The heart and soul of school culture is what people believe, the assumptions they make about how school works.” — Thomas J. Sergiovanni
“School cultures are complex webs of traditions and rituals that have been built up over time as teachers, students, parents, and administrators work together and deal with crises and accomplishments. Cultural patterns are highly enduring, have a powerful impact on performance, and shape the ways people think, act, and feel.” — Deal, T.E., and Peterson, K.D., “Shaping School Culture: The Heart of Leadership”

Our choices make us. Our self-control builds us into who we are. Self-regulation is a skill that needs to be taught, in school and at home, to be successful in learning and growing up to be calm and balanced as adults.
RULER method. One of the many methods you can use to assist students/your child and of course yourself as a parent/teacher, in self-regulating emotions effectively and learning social and emotional skills. Brackett and Rivers (2014) developed the RULER method.
RULER stands for:
- recognize emotion in self and others,
- understand an emotion’s cause and potential consequences,
- label emotions with accurate vocabulary,
- express emotions in constructive ways, and
- learn to regulate emotions in positive ways (Nathanson et al., 2016). As part of the RULER method, teachers are encouraged to assist students in recognizing emotions using a mood meter. This helps younger students begin to identify emotions by color zones (red, yellow, green and blue) representing different categories of emotion such as anger, sadness, calm, and happiness (Tominey et al., 2017). How do you help yourself in managing your emotions? your student/child’s emotions? Find some suggestions in this issue of the newsletter, let me know some of your ‘go-to’ methods during stressful times.

One Video of the Week
Dr. Antle brings to our attention the idea that perhaps what is preventing children in developing regions from learning is not the lack of schools, but instead, the inability to self-regulate due to experienced traumas.
She explains how the headset and app technology she developed teaches children how to self-regulate and how this has, and will, have a profound influence on how children are able to learn across all parts of the world.
Dr. Antle pushes the boundaries of computation to expand the ways we think and learn. As a designer and builder of interactive technologies, her goal is to explore the way in which these innovations can improve, augment, and support children’s development.
Her interactive technologies have been deployed to facilitate collaborative learning about aboriginal heritage, sustainability and social justice; improve learning outcomes for dyslexic children; and teach self-regulation to disadvantaged children.

Father’s Day was celebrated a few days back. Through almost every studied culture, fathers have assumed three primary roles: the protector, the provider, and the disciplinarian. In many single and two-parent families, these roles are being fulfilled by one, two, or both parents right?
My dad did all the typical things that a father does, taught me to ride a bike, played badminton with me, coached me to swim, showed me how to manage finance, and most definitely gave me confidence in myself to do whatever I did best and wanted most. He scaffolded me every step of the way, through my joys, sorrows, and dilemmas. He, along with my mom, every step of the way. So when I think of my parents, I think they were great at how to scaffold and when to take off the scaffolding. I hope that my husband and I have been able to do the same with our child, as we understood best.
Here are a few ways you can scaffold your child as a parent and some tips for educators as well to scaffold their students. Let me know if as a parent or educator, you have found new ways of scaffolding your children/students.
The video in this issue is fun and motivational, for dad especially. Happy Father’s Day dear dads.
