Part of the goal in me making this educational podcast, was to get my listeners to think critically about what they focus on, how they focus and what they reflect on and how they derive faith or belief based motivation and routines in life. In accordance with this goal, I decided to set the tone for how and why we focus and persist by creating this podcast in a Dunkin Donuts. You will hear some general and subtle background noise and this is a small challenge and reflection to test yourself to see how and why you focus and what you will indirectly and directly get out of this podcast and apply to your beliefs and to your life. By the end of this podcast, I want you think of what the importance of education means to you in terms of educator and student discipline and success. This podcast presents an overview of what I think is important in a religious and educational perspective relating to the 4 pillars of education in the Dominican Tradition of education. This podcast was created to get you to think and reflect on educational and religious beliefs and to put into action what you believe is functional, good, faithful and serves an educational purpose.
