Interested In Being A Guest On The Podcast?
This page is for podcast guest requests. If you’re interested in submitting a guest blog proposal, click here.
We welcome researchers, educators, and students as guests on the podcast. We look for guests that will discuss evidence-based education, particularly related to cognition. We also love to hear from teachers about their experiences putting evidence-based recommendations into practice, and from current students explaining how they use research-based learning strategies.
Submitting A Podcast Guest Proposal:
To submit a podcast guest proposal (1) read this page carefully and then (2) fill out the form at the bottom of this page. Use this form to provide us with your suggested topic, a brief outline of what you would like to discuss, and the peer-reviewed references you plan to mention to back up your recommendations (these will also be used in the show notes). If we agree on the topic and outline, then we will email you to discuss the episode further and schedule a time to record.
Scientific references & evidence-based practice
This is the section we use first and foremost to decide whether a request is appropriate for our podcast. Be sure to include any references or a link to evidence-based practice (i.e., the strategies we talk about on the website) within the form below. If you are a teacher or a student and want to talk about using evidence-based strategies, tell us the strategy and link to a source that you used to learn about the strategy (something from our blog or website is fine).
We need scientific references or links to evidence-based practice to determine what guests and discussion topics are a good fit for the podcast. If scientific references or links to evidence-based practice are not included in the form submission, then it is not appropriate for our podcast and is deleted.
We do not advertise or produce sponsored episodes
The focus of the proposed episode needs to be on evidence-based practice and learning. We do not allow any advertising on our website. The purpose of the podcast episode should not be to promote books, companies, apps, etc. However, we are happy for you to discuss the scientific evidence on which a book, company, or app is based, and the personal information can be briefly mentioned and/or included in the episode show notes. Unfortunately, we do not have money to pay guests.
If Your Idea Is Accepted…
We will work with you to schedule a time to record. We record using Zencastr, and will provide a link for you to join the room for recording. We typically like to have videos on so that we can see one another while talking, but we only record the audio, not the video.
We are looking forward to hearing your ideas!
The Learning Scientists.
