On this episode, Katie is joined by Deborah Loewenberg Ball, the William H. Payne Collegiate Professor of education at the University of Michigan, an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, and the director of TeachingWorks. She taught elementary school for more than 15 years, and continues to teach mathematics to elementary students every summer. Ball studies the practice of teaching, seeking to identify how its power can be leveraged to disrupt racism, marginalization, and inequity. Much of her research focuses on elementary mathematics as a critical context for understanding teaching practice, examining the endemic challenges of working across difference, and the relational, communicative, and content-understanding entailments of that work. Her current work centers on ways to improve the quality of beginning teaching, particularly for children of color and low-income children.
Ball has authored or co-authored more than 150 publications and has lectured and made numerous major presentations around the world. She serves on the National Science Board and the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute Board of Trustees and is president of the American Educational Research Association. Ball has been elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Education, and is a fellow of the American Mathematical Society and the American Educational Research Association.

On this episode, Katie is joined by Dr. Kenny Maes, an assistant professor and Graduate Program Director for the Anthropology program in the College of Liberal Arts, and the School of Language, Culture and Society and an adjunct faculty member in Humanitarian Engineering, Global Health, and Public Policy at Oregon State University. Prior to joining OSU, Kenny was a postdoctoral fellow at Brown University’s Population Studies & Training Center, an interdisciplinary demography center specializing in the study of population, health and development. As a biocultural medical anthropologist, he teaches courses on human health that explore the links between what goes on inside human bodies and what happens outside, with a focus on social inequalities, and political and economic determinants of health. Kenny’s research focuses on community health workers: women and men who engage in healthcare, community organizing, and advocacy at the community level, both inside and outside of clinics and hospitals. Since 2006, his research has focused on health and healthcare in Ethiopia. Since coming to OSU in 2012, Kenny has begun to work with colleagues in Oregon to understand the experiences of community health workers in our home state. In his free time, he surfs.
Segment 1: Biocultural Medical Anthropology [00:00-14:45]
In this first segment, Kenny describes the work of being a biocultural medical anthropologist.
Segment 2: Community Health Workers [14:46-32:46]
In segment two, Kenny discusses his research on community health workers.

On this episode, Katie is joined by Ian E. Munanura, Ph.D., an Assistant Professor in the Department of Forest Ecosystems and Society at Oregon State University. He earned a Doctorate in Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management at Clemson University in South Carolina. He also earned a Master of Science degree in Tourism and Wildlife Conservation from the University of Kent in the United Kingdom. He teaches courses on ecotourism and sustainable communities, sustainable tourism planning, and a study abroad course on international perspectives of ecotourism and political ecology. His scholarship seeks to identify the human resilience and wellbeing constraints, which could create livelihood vulnerability, human dependence on forest resources for livelihoods, and loss of biodiversity. He also seeks to identify the potential of community-based tourism to mitigate human resilience and wellbeing constraints, which could influence biodiversity loss. His geographical area of scholarship interest is the Pacific Northwest, Southeast Asia, and East Africa. Previously, Dr. Munanura has worked in Rwanda as a field project director and country director for the Wildlife Conservation Society. He also led a $5 million project funded by the US Agency for International Development in Rwanda, designed to integrate and promote sustainable tourism, biodiversity conservation, human health, and economic development.
