    Student Achievement in Ag. & Science Concepts

    Release Date: 03/10/2023

    Description: In this episode, Virginia Tech's Natalie Ferand shares "illuminating" information about the integration of science concepts in our teaching. Highlights include: There are three types of teachers as we think about integrating science concepts: vocational purists, illumination attempters, and science illuminators. You might be one or the other depending on what you’re teaching. Science illuminators aren’t necessarily looking to change their curriculum. They work to highlight a key science (or math or English) concept in what they’re already teaching. Great curriculum is a team effort and takes a ton of time. Check out STEM It Up as a great example to boost your Floriculture program.

    Reflections on Utility Disruption With Adrian Tuck

    Release Date: 06/27/2019

    Authors: [email protected] (Uplight, Adrian Tuck, Brad Langley, Devren Hobbs)

    Description: Over the last four episodes, we’ve detailed the history of corporate innovation, wins and fails in customer strategies, the winding path of technology adoption, and the role of big corporates in catalyzing change.We’ve been talking about the recent and distant past, trying to understand how it applies to the competitive challenges that energy companies face today.In this episode, we are revisiting those themes — and looking to the future — with Tendril, now Uplight, CEO Adrian Tuck.Adrian has two decades of experience building companies and bringing technologies to market. He spends a lot of time thinking about what other industries can teach utilities about embracing disruptive change.We’ll talk start the episode by looking at the impact of artificial intelligence with Erik Brynjolffson, director of the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy. AI is mostly good at narrow tasks — and that leaves a lot of room for the things that humans are good at: creativity, relationships, persuasion, leadership.Then, Adrian joins us to talk about how AI will impact the energy industry. He’ll also share thoughts on other emerging tech trends, how utilities can set up a culture of innovation, and why leaders fail to embrace change.ILLUMINATORS is brought to you by Uplight, the leading provider of end-to-end customer-centric technology solutions dedicated solely to serving the energy ecosystem.
