- [Kusum] Today I'm going to tell you two stories.

One story is about me and another story is

about a girl in my village, named Mina.

(string music)

She thought, "Whatever my family will tell me to do,

I will just do it."

See, they don't care about her future,

because she never thought about it.

When I first started playing football in Yuwa,

then our lives took the same path.

- [Franz] When girls don't know their worth,

it's a very dangerous place.

Jharkhand is a dangerous place to be a girl.

You don't know your self-worth, then you've got no

defense against all things that might come at you.

When girls know their worth, they're limitless.

My name is Franz Gastler.

I went to India in 2007.

I was asking the kids there what they do on the weekends,

and one girl said she played football,

and I said, "Oh, do you?"

It turned out, no, she didn't, but she wanted to.

We'd ask the girls, "How often do you want to play?"

They've always said, even up 'til now, "Every day."

Second question was, "What do you need to play?"

And these girls would just, kind of like, discuss shyly,

and usually say, "A place to play, and a ball, and a coach."

- [Kusum] My story is different from Mina's because I saw an

opportunity in Yuwa to make my dreams come true.

- [Franz] When we started this,

I never imagined that this first team of 12 girls

that we had would become 100s.

I didn't imagine that these girls

were going to become youth icons.

(vocalizing)

Through football, each girl's got a community,

and through that positive community,

they've gained courage; they've gained confidence.

But, you know, kind of, raising the bar

and raising their hopes.

But, in order to reach their potential, they need tools,

real specific tools.

Those tools are something that

they can get through education.

This is our school and also our house.

First and foremost, we wanna help these girls to

find out what it is that they really wanna do.

In building this school, we're trying to come up with

a space where they're going to get what they need

in order to achieve their dreams and really,

practically to take the next step towards university.

- [Kusum] My dream is to go to a university abroad.

I want to start my own NGO to bring changes in our society.

I want to give chance to girls.

[Franz] In spite of having a weird physical setup,

I think that we're the best school in Jharkhand.

Definitely not infrastructure wise.

But, in terms of human infrastructure,

we've got that part taken care of.

(piano music)

Right now, we're running a school on rented land.

We can't be here much longer.

We've pretty much done everything we can

with the school that we have.

We're trying to raise less than a

million dollars to build this school.

We want to build something which

really gives these girls a chance.

Which does justice to their hunger and desire to learn.

- [Kusum] Here, the education is

very different and interesting.

Teachers enjoy teaching us.

They interact with us like friend or parents.

They care about more than education. (upbeat music)

- [Franz] Microsoft is helping us to build a new website.

This is something that I've been

wanting to do for many years.

What we're doing is trying to build a site

and must be really clear about how people can get involved.

(vocalizing)

- When I me the young girls at Yuwa,

I think the one thing that stays with me every day,

is how they approach their challenges.

They're still smiling and sharing, because they're looking

at where they have come and the unlimited potential that

they now have been exposed to.

Because of the work that Franz has done through Yuwa.

- [Franz] Now we've got an opportunity

to really build something great.

Which is going to help a generation of girls

not just discover their self-worth,

but to really become leaders in their own communities.

When girls know their worth, they're limitless.

- Together, my friends and I are

trying to bring changes through education.

To have a bright future, we are not going to

allow anyone else to write the ending of our stories.

(upbeat music)

Thank you. (applause)

Campaign Diaries 2: Importance of Education - Duration: 1:56.

Hello Santa Fe my name is Kate Noble

and I'm running for Mayor. This is another edition

of Kate's Campaign Diaries and I'll be answering

a tough question because anyone running for office should.

The question I'm hearing most often is why am

I running for Mayor given that I was elected to

the School Board. Well the simple answer is

because I believe I can do more good to transform

our education system as Mayor. The education

system is the most important thing we have. My son

is in first grade. He comes home every night and

we talk about what he's learned, and the teacher

is the key there, and the school is such an

important part of his life. Well, three concrete

ideas I've had. One: Let's work on a job training

program where the city can support growing our

own teachers out of our high schools. Two: Both the

city and the schools own quite a lot of property.

These are public resources. Let's partner to

address our housing crisis and, in particular, to

attract and retain great teachers in our

community by giving them a place to live.

Three: Facility sharing. We can strengthen our community

by providing spaces for neighbors to come

together and meet each other at the times that

schools aren't used. After hours and on weekends

and this can really help our community heal some

of its divides. I got a great education in the

Santa Fe public schools and I know lots of

children are getting a great education today, but

we can do even more particularly by supporting

teachers. So, in short, that's why I am running for

Mayor. Please check out more on KateForMayor.com

Also here is a slightly provocative

question. Is a woman's place really on the School

Board? I don't know. I hope we can have more

community conversations. For now, though, that's

all. Make it a great day in Santa Fe.

Top 10 in 10 in 2: Competency-Based Education - Duration: 2:35.

Hello, I'm Sheila Alles, Chief Deputy Superintendent at the Michigan Department of Education . . . .and

this is another edition of the Top 10 in 10 in 2 Podcast.

One of the educational innovations that has been identified as a strategy of our Top 10

in 10 plan is competency-based education.

Competency-based education is a form of personalized learning and personalized learning is a key

component of the Learner-centered supports Focus Area in our Top 10 in 10 Strategic Plan

When we think about the purpose of education, we know that one aspect of this work is to

develop knowledge and skills that can be applied later in life.

Leaders in business and industry say that they need employees who are collaborative

problem-solvers, and who have strong critical thinking and communication skills.

How do we know that our students have these skills when they graduate from high school?

This is where competency based education comes in.

In a competency-based education system, instruction is more student focused and personalized.

Students demonstrate mastery or competency of specific skills, or content, at their own

pace.

Credits and grades are based on proficiency in content standards and skills, rather than

on participation, seat time, tests or homework alone.

Student progress is assessed in multiple ways, including activities outside of the classroom,

and is reported based on learning targets and competencies, rather than just letter

grades reported over a period of time.

Competency-based education represents a new way in how students demonstrate their skills

and understanding, and a more helpful way for schools and educators to report that information

to parents, colleges and universities, and employers.

Some Michigan school districts are at the cutting edge of this approach.

We want to thank these districts for their pioneering work in this area, and encourage

all educators to begin to explore these efforts, and all of the other innovations identified

in the goals and strategies in Michigan's Top 10 in 10 Strategic Plan.

Working together on these efforts, we will be better equipped to help Michigan's schools

achieve our education mission of supporting learners and learning.

Physical Education Change - Duration: 1:54.

The physical education program at Schuylerville high school is getting a

makeover this year. "The aim of the new program is to educate students on a

total body type health and fitness level." The program has moved away from strictly

sports and game education and has evolved into a comprehensive training program.

"You now get to go and work on yourself to better improve yourself, you know

where before when you do those team games and things like that I think often

times you had kids who kind of got lost in the mix and now it allows you to

focus on yourself and make yourself better, you know, which is always a great

thing." During class students rotate through training block areas, completing

two exercises at each station. At the end of all five training blocks, students

have finished a total body workout. "This year it's much more structured.

There's a lot of stations basically and it's easier to get a lot of work done in

one period than it was as a freshman and sophomore. It keeps everything

moving keeps the group split up pretty evenly, makes everything go by

faster and it's just it's easier in a way they stay organized."

The new approach is aimed to benefit each student both physically and

cognitively. "We feel that not only are you able to get stronger physically, but

you're also able to handle things on a mindful side of things much better with

the exercise that we are now doing in class." And the goal? Give students the

skills and training they need for the future. "It is one of those pieces that is

very important for our students to have that knowledge to go outside of school

and to continue their lifelong health."

Philip Levine on WPLG's This Week in South Florida -- Education Discussion - Duration: 0:54.

"Charter Schools - Do you believe there is a role for charter schools?"

"So Michael, let me explain that.

I went to public school my whole life down here.

I went to Attucks Middle School in Dania, I went to Hollywood Hills High School, I did

okay for myself.I'm a big believe in public schools, so the question is: 'Do you want

to invest in your public schools or do you not?'

It comes down to priorities.

So I believe in public schools, I believe investing in public schools.

People ask me about charter schools and private schools; I think they're fantastic.

They're great.

Matter of fact, all the world for them, I hope they do really really well because I

like competition.

But I don't think we should invest in someone else's business.

The example I'll give you is the post office.

That's our business.

We own the post office.

We should invest in the post office.

I don't think we should invest in FedEx and DHL and UPS; that's someone else's business!

But I think they're great companies.

So let's keep them separate but let's invest in the business we got, which is public schools.
