Hi everyone, Katie Morrow here with ESU 8 on this week's Wednesday webinar where I hope to share with you some ideas for creating core content with Canvas. Now this brief introduction to Canvas isn't meant to be a step by step how to get started, but rather you already have access to Canvas in your classroom and now how can you use it for better teaching and learning. I'm going to share with you four kind of categories of learning goals, ideas for using Canvas announcements, discussions, assignments, and different ideas for quizzes. These were all shared from a former Canvas employee named Shara Johnson who was a classroom teacher prior to that and currently works at the ESU level and she was gracious enough to share her ideas with us to share with you. So in the category of discussions, I'll show you lots of ideas. We won't go too in-depth in how to do any of them, but as a quick overview of the possibilities, I think it should give you ideas of what you can try and reach out to me later on to dig in deeper perhaps. Also assignments, some different ideas to structure an assignment on Canvas and then how to package and deliver quizzes with some alternative uses as well. So without further ado, let's get started with those learning goals by logging into esu8.instructure.com. So here I am inside of Canvas, logged into the Canvas course we're going to be using to give a brief overview of ideas of how to create that core classroom content. Just to let you know, I am logged in in two browsers. Here in Safari, I'm logged in as a teacher, so this is my instructor account. And then when we need to see the course through the eyes of a student, I have a generic student account so you can see that it looks a little bit different here. Just to make sure everyone is clear, when you are logged in as an instructor, at any time you can go to settings and view your course as a student in order to get that student view, which is nice to know. But for the purposes of quick switching, we are going to go back and forth pretty quick between these two browsers. When we start with this course, it's already set up so that buttons help us navigate. We don't have to go into content and figure out the different modules to visit in order. We can just visit the buttons and each of these graphics then links to a different section of the course. We are going to start with announcements and announcements and discussions are very similar. And just to give you a brief overview of the potential of announcements, it's obviously to push out content and broadcast information within a quick global setting. There is a way that you can send a global announcement to the entire domain or instance of Canvas too, so your entire district. But within a course you can easily just put a title, a message. You can decide if that posting is immediate or if it's delayed and if users are allowed to read it first and then post a reply or if they can read everyone else's replies without posting their own first. Because of the ability to add replies to announcements, it's very similar to discussions, even with the liking capability where students can click that I like this post button. It seems similar to a discussion, but the main difference is that an announcement is never graded. And so even if a discussion is non-graded, it still has a trackable feature where there's a column in the grade book and you can see who has participated and who hasn't. So think about announcements as the way to broadcast information and give information out, whereas a conversation or a discussion would be more of an invitation to participate. Now that being said, there's still some great simple uses for announcements. We can use announcements to set expectations. We can send the announcement out prior to class beginning or right at the beginning, maybe schedule it for the very beginning of class and tell students what they are to expect that day. You can send reminders out to students and remind them that something is due or something is upcoming or just a gentle reminder to practice some more inside of the Canvas course. Because of the ability to delay posting, it's nice to have it come at a certain moment in time, maybe when your course is happening or during the face-to-face meeting time or maybe outside of class time. And one other additional setting that is nice to know is that you can include video and audio or multimedia files very easily. So you can record a quick video introduction to a new unit or a lesson or an activity or even just do a little bit of talking that goes with your announcement that students could listen to perhaps when you're gone and there's a substitute in the room. So a lot of really simple things that you can do with announcements on a quick level. Don't underestimate the power to celebrate student achievements or accomplishments. Just give those virtual paths on the back and or share step-by-step directions and help support the rest of the content in Canvas. Let's go ahead now though into the next section where we're going to spend most of our time, which is how to use announcements. So if we again use these navigation buttons and view our graphic that shows lots of ideas for using discussions, we're going to start with the anticipatory set. And this is to set the pace, to set the learning objectives for the day, to get people started thinking about what is the topic for our class content. Just to set the stage a little bit and this discussion could be getting to know you. It could be sharing one piece of information that you bring to class with you. A very simple discussion can be initiated and then students can participate maybe as a bell ringer perhaps. Discussions can also be ongoing. So in the student view here, we could also see how when I click on the ongoing discussions, the open-ended discussions, this might be a parking lot where students can continually refer back to and post things that they need help on or extra support. Just a general question about the course. The thing about the pinned discussions or the open-ended discussions that are ongoing is that when you make them in your course, you just put them in a different section. So here I am in discussions. You can see all the ones that have already been created in this course. And in this top section called pinned discussion, that's where that open-ended discussion lives and stays. So it's like locked into the top of the discussion section. Now you just do that by adding a new discussion. Of course your criteria is down below. These will carry through all of the different examples, whether or not replies can be threaded and somebody can reply to a reply, whether or not the user or the learner must post first before they see everybody else's responses, whether or not it's graded and has a column on the gradebook for tracking and whether or not the students can like things. We're going to talk about group discussions in a second, but if we did want to make this into a pinned discussion, it would just be ongoing. We'd save and then we move it up into that top section. So now all of our discussions are listed in the discussions tab and it should be as simple as drag and drop to get it into that right section. So ordered by recent activities how the normal discussions show up, but this ongoing help, we would just move it up into this top section and of course publish it when we want people to see it. The next way that you might choose to use discussions is as a back channel. So a back channel could happen outside of your LMS as well, but the next time you show a video or a lecture or a presentation where students are consuming a large amount of content, consider simply having a discussion opened up in the background in Canvas so the students can ask questions without stopping the lecture or the instructional video and or you could plant questions ahead of time in the discussion space and ask them to respond to them as they're listening and learning. This can scaffold the learning that's going, it also keeps students engaged. Using a back channel is a teaching practice that can get a lot of value out of it. So this is what you see, it's a behind the scenes presentation and they could post questions to each other so students could answer each other's questions, share insights. It definitely improves additional participation and deeper learning. The idea for Canvas discussions would be to facilitate a scavenger hunt type experience where students are encouraged to go out and capture an image, take a picture, especially if they're on iPads or mobile devices and then post that back as their discussion reply. In this case it would share those images with everyone else in the class because just like students can see each other's discussion replies, they can also see each other's pictures. So this example comes from an elementary math classroom where students have to look for examples of parallel lines in the classroom. Again if they're on the iPad version of Canvas it's very easy to capture an image and put it directly into that post on the laptop version. They can snap their picture and then post it as a piece of their reply. Setting these up, whether they need to post their own before they can see each other's posts or just allowing them to see other ideas before they post their own, either way is appropriate depending on your objectives. And the really great thing is that discussion becomes more ongoing as people see each other's posts and images and ideas that they found in their scavenger hunt and they're able to discuss why does this qualify, why does this not, how did you create that or how did you find that, etc. So really good uses of Canvas discussions as scavenger hunt type activities. Gallery walk is very similar in that students would each create their own learning artifact. In this example it's in the art classroom and they take a picture of their completed pottery and then post it to the Canvas discussion as an example that each other can, all the rest of the students can view and appreciate. Now as an added benefit here, this example of the gallery walk is reminding us that teachers can attach a rubric or a link to another document onto the Canvas discussion and then ask students to use a rubric to score each other's work or to give feedback. So a discussion doesn't have to be limited to simply the images, it could also include some additional peer review in this case. A vocabulary practice activity is the next example and this is one that really takes advantage of groups. Groups are not restricted just to discussions in Canvas but because we're going to talk about them for the next couple of examples, I'm going to show you that you can go out to your people tab inside of your course, in any course and you can create these groups even bigger than just your discussions and you can also create them on the fly as I'll show you soon. But here I am inside of the people tab and I would just say in my groups tab, I would make a new group and perhaps I would call this the red group. My options are to allow students to self sign up and I can also randomly have Canvas put them into three equal groups. Actually these are going to be my color groups, here we go. And then I'll create the groups manually so I'll save this group set. Now I have a new tab that's called color groups. Now I'll add a group called the red group and hit save. Another group called the blue group and hit save you can get the idea there. I now just drag my students into those groups so I want Molly and Tina to be in the blue group. Now I have two students inside of that one. I want Heidi and Jill to be in the red group and I have two students inside of that one. I can use these groups ongoing. I can use them for discussions, for assignments, for other things. I can make additional group sets or even when I'm creating a discussion on the fly, I can have Canvas create them randomly from there. So you can see here I've got a list of all my discussions. I'm going to start a new one and we'll just go ahead and call this our vocabulary practice. Because that's the activity we're going to explain how we use groups for it. Down towards the bottom of the options for the discussion, we just check the box that says this is a group discussion. And here's where we can choose those color groups as the way that these vocabulary practice is assigned. If I didn't want to use that group, I would just say new group category. I might call this vocabulary groups. And let's in this example do three random equal groups. Now this vocabulary discussion is going to be assigned to each group so that they only see each other's responses. And it kind of helps weed through when you have a whole class discussion and make it something more focused, more manageable for students to see each other's posts and reply to each other. Just so you know as well when you go to the people tab now, those vocabulary practice groups that Canvas automatically created, they will show up globally as an option for you to use in your assignments. And for students, it'll tell them you've been assigned to vocab group one or vocab group two or whatever it might be. So let's go back to the vocabulary practice example for discussions. In this example, the idea is that vocabulary terms would be posted as the discussion prompt by the teacher. And then each small group would be responsible for using one word in a sentence before the next student in their group hits reply and adds the next word in a sentence. And the trick is that each sentence should make sense in a logical order and tie together with the next or the previous. So this is a small practice activity that can be used with any subject area, any vocabulary words. Like I said, you decide the number of groups and how they're randomly created or else you manually create them ahead of time. And then students only see the people in their group and only see the sentences from their group members so that they can more easily manage making those eight sentences in this example make logical sense in order. I love that idea. I think it's an easy one that anybody could try tomorrow in their Canvas class. Brainstorming is the next discussion idea and brainstorming happens perhaps when it's just generating ideas. In this example, it's for a school dance, a prom theme. You can have students, again, like each other, you can have them reply and add ideas to each other's ideas, but just using a discussion not for a graded assignment, but just to generate ideas I think is a great practice. Following the discussion that helps us brainstorm, we have a very unique idea of using Canvas discussions for journals. Journals is something I've actually had teachers ask me about. People are right. You can go out and have students start their own blogs and that can be their journaling space, but sometimes there is a time and a place for private journals. And as the teacher, I might put up weekly journal topics or maybe Fridays are our journal days and we're documenting an ongoing project like a 20% project or a Genius Hour project. Or I want to see students' book logs and I want to see what they've read and kind of have them write a response each week. And I don't necessarily want that to be public facing on a blog. I just want it to be a private dialogue between the student and myself. So Canvas would allow you to do that if you use this one creative trick. Instead of assigning the discussion to random groups of three random groups, for example, we could just assign a discussion to as many groups as you have students. So in this class or in this course, I believe I have eight students or so. So I would create a new discussion and call this journals. And then down where it says groups, this is a group discussion, new group category. And these are going to be called journal groups, which are basically groups of one. And I would have Canvas split the students into, I can't remember how many students are enrolled. So let's just say 10, create the category. And now any time they post in this discussion, I'm going to see their posts and be able to reply to it and they're going to see it, but no one else. It also gives me a column on the grade book and the ability to track and see when students have posted to their journal and when they haven't. And if I go back to the student side now and I'm able to go ahead and go home or look at the people tab, I can see the groups that I belong to. So I can see that group of one, my journal group, should pop up here. And it shows that I'm a member of it. Oh, this one is showing all of them, but there should be the one that I'm in. Here we go down here. So I will get that option and it's just a really great way to keep those journals private, but still let Canvas do the hard work of setting things up for you. Okay, next on our agenda here is the idea of using discussions as sentence corrections vehicles or this might be your daily proofreading sentences, your math problem where you post it on the board or you post it through Canvas and as students come in, they have to make the corrections. The recommendation here is that you restrict it so the students can't see each other's answers before they post their own. And then that just gets their initial ideas, their way to solve the problem or find the error in what is on the board and post it first and then they can compare it with everybody else's. The next idea is using students to take on that workload of being the facilitator in small groups. So orally, you would tell your students which group they're in and make one designated student in each, the facilitator. They're in charge of making the initial posts and checking to make sure that all replies are addressed and that takes that load off of your shoulders. The next week you would then rotate roles. I think this is a great skill for students to practice and have some exposure to prior to them going off to higher education and we know being asked to work in those discussion groups online in environments where they may not be as comfortable and familiar. We might as well build in some opportunities for that responsibility even in high school or even younger. One idea here was having students use a discussion during a live event. This could be even happening outside of school. The example that we were given was during the recent presidential election that live results could be discussed through Canvas even while students were at home watching on their televisions. Then to have that archive of that dialogue as it happened live could lead to really rich discussions in class the next day. A traditional discussion but not is just the idea of letting students add media to their discussion posts so they could record a video response or an audio response and add it to their discussion reply or just have it be their discussion reply. We usually think of discussions as mostly typed text but they don't have to be in Canvas. Finally, the traditional practice of using an exit ticket can also happen very easily as a Canvas discussion. You just post what was your one aha moment today or you post the prompt that asks what's one question you still have about what we learned today and students quickly and easily answer that discussion with their reply and it's their ticket out the door. That is a lot of ideas for discussions. I really think that there's a lot more features there than we at first thought think to take advantage of. In the next section we're going to explore ideas for assignments. Assignments we traditionally think of as just let's do a worksheet or let's hand in something to a drop box. Right away the first example is incorporating Google Docs and encouraging students to use a collaborative document to submit their answers to or their ideas to rather than the traditional worksheet. Let's take a look at this in the student view and when we click on that first assignment to do collaboratively the Google Doc is embedded. You can click on the link here or you can see it here and now each student, different students are able to add their ideas to this KWL chart. We all have editing rights and we know that we can put the links in and we can do the sharing through Google Docs itself but considering incorporating it into Canvas that allows you to add additional information around the Google document and it also gives you the column in your grade book to track student responses. The first worksheet example here, Worksheet A is also using a Google Doc. However it's a clever way of changing the URL as the teacher when you put it into Canvas. When you go to the share button on a Google Doc and you have a long URL, let's take a look at this one in student view as well. Okay, we are in student view here so we click here. I now get that grammar worksheet but I'm forced to get a copy of it so that I'm not editing on my teacher's Google Doc. In the previous example, the KWL chart, they wanted me to edit it and this one, they don't. They want my answers on my document and my classmate's answers on his Google Doc. So what you do is when you share your Google Doc with the blue share button in the upper right hand corner you get this big long URL and the last four characters of it say edit. You type in copy COPY and then put that on Canvas and that forces the students when they click on that link to get a copy of it as their own Google Doc. They can now type their own ideas on it. They can share it back with their teacher or hand it in on that Canvas assignment. This is just a kind of a related trick that works well when integrating Google Docs with Canvas or anything for that matter. It will work even outside of Canvas too. The second example of a worksheet on Canvas is not yet in this one. The cell structure worksheet is downloaded. It's linked in the assignment and then downloaded and now the student is asked to annotate it. Annotations on the iPad on a PDF are beautiful. They're simple. The students can use their finger and annotate, put their drawings and then hit the submit button in the upper right hand corner and go right back to submitting that into Canvas for the teacher to see. On the laptop, it's not quite there yet, but we can download the PDF. We can annotate it and mark it up in whatever app will allow us to do so on our laptops and then save it to our computer locally and attach it back to that Canvas assignment. This is still yet another way to distribute information to assign content to students and then to collect it back all with the Canvas assignment. It's just worth mentioning that the annotation feature on the iPad app of the Canvas app, the iPad version, has very much been improved in the recent past. So it's worth checking out. We have another assignment example here and this one is to do a group assignment. So this is much like the group discussions. We don't have to just assign it to an individual. We can make new groups or we can submit them or assign them to the groups we've already used. So just reminding you, the other option with group assignments is that you can decide whether or not you want all the students in that group to receive the same grade or if you want them to each have their own individual grade. Much like group assignments, we can also assign peer review assignments. In this example, the students are asked to write a page or a paragraph about the science content and then down below a rubric is attached because you may have noticed on each assignment you have the ability to add a rubric and then you can also, let's edit the settings here for this assignment, then you can also assign this so that students not only have to complete the task of writing the response, but they also are required to do a peer review. I can manually assign those peer reviews so that I want certain people to review each other or I can have Canvas automatically assign them. I can tell Canvas to let them know, okay, after you post your piece of response or your piece of writing, go and review three other people's pieces of writing using the rubric that's attached and, of course, you get the tracking in the grade book to do that as well. You can decide whether or not the initial student knows who is doing that peer review or not. I would recommend the anonymity feature being turned on there and, of course, the grading details there. And the final example of maybe how you make better use of assignments in Canvas is just to remind you and your students that they can attach media to their assignment or have media be their assignment. In this example from foreign language, the students were assigned to watch the alphabet being sung in Spanish and then after that, record themselves reciting the letters A to E in Espanol. On the student end, it looks just like this. Here they see the video to watch. Now below, record and submit yourself doing the assignment so I would click submit the assignment as the student and I would be prompted to record and upload my media. Bring up my webcam. I can record my response right away. This could be a reflection, a reaction, it could be an oral reading, a fluency practice, the ability to even put voice on there as well as voice and video really can add to the robust nature of the assignments that you're distributing to your students. And so that leads us into quizzes. Now I'm going to go home and navigate us to this fourth category of how to make core content with Canvas. I want to guide you, as I'm doing so, into thinking not of quizzes as just the traditional end of the unit test or assessment, but rather start associating the word quizzes on Canvas with question generators because that's really all they are. They're a way to generate a question and then have a way to track responses. Again, there's a lot of similarities with discussions. As you'll see in this first example of Bell Work, we can put something on Canvas that students do as they enter the classroom. And in the first few minutes of class where students are transitioning, they can have a task or a question or a preview activity and they can submit their response in the form of a quiz answer. It does not have to be multiple choice. However, if it is multiple choice, they can have itself graded without you needing to spend time doing so and they have a quick self-assessment of where they're at. If it's open response, the main difference that you would need to be aware of is that only you would see their responses to their Bell Work quiz, whereas when we did it as a discussion, every student could see the responses. A practice quiz, this is just thinking of the question generator as an opportunity for students to practice over and over and over. You'll notice on this one that the teacher set it up so that they have unlimited attempts and that's what a practice quiz is. This is less about knowing an assessment or evaluation of where a student is at and it's more about giving them the opportunity to better their skills. So they're able to take the quiz over and over. You can decide if you want those questions randomly mixed up each time or not and you can even have Canvas still take a score off of it but just keep the highest score out of all of them. And all of those are in the teacher settings for Canvas as well. So just thinking of a quiz as an opportunity to practice more frequently. Worksheets. So a worksheet, even though we saw it in assignments and we saw a couple of different examples of worksheets, they can also be completed as a quiz. Just ask your worksheet questions as quiz questions. It's really just a question generator and then, if they're multiple choice, those questions will be graded for you. If they're free response, you can go back and grade those questions through the quizzes module on Canvas and assign the score that way. Surveys. Whether you want them to be anonymous or not, you're able to get a quick pulse of your class and let them evaluate things using a quiz, a question generator. Ask a question, let them respond to it, make it ungraded and you now have a survey inside of Canvas. Guided Notes is the next one. It's kind of similar to a worksheet. This might be helpful while students watch an instructional video or listen to a lecture. Kind of like a back channel. Instead of being a discussion, though, where they're interacting with each other, it's more just to keep them engaged and on task. So we would provide questions of how the video's going to talk about and then have students complete those questions as they're watching the video. Again, because a quiz can be graded and graded automatically, students can see how on target they are while they are listening to the content. The next example is using a quiz as a checklist. This would be more for not for, again, for getting a grade, but just for having a mental reminder to myself of what I need to do for a certain assignment. So let's do, in this example, I think it's a writing example. So I have stages that I have to go through in order to complete my writing assignment and then my teacher for my research paper has just provided this checklist in the form of a quiz so that when I click on this quiz and then take it, I'm actually just checking off the things that I need to make sure that I included. Did I do this? Did I do the next thing? And if I'm able to answer yes, yes, yes and check everything off, it's a great self-check and a way to keep everything in line for myself. So we'll leave this one. Common assessments is discussed in this Canvas course as a way to share assessments because quizzes can be shared across courses and even across domains and instances of Canvas. So from one institution to the next you can even share Canvas questions and entire quizzes and mix them up again and use them on perhaps an end of the semester review. There's a lot of help files and quick tutorials on how to use quiz questions in more shared environments. So this button is a reminder that we have that ability to share them. Now a scavenger hunt, similar to the scavenger hunt we did as a discussion, this one's also in a math class. This time you're capturing pictures of different geometry terms and again if they're on the iPads they're able to submit those images really quick and easily to the quiz. If they're on their laptop they would capture their pictures, and then submit them to the scavenger hunt. The difference here is they won't see each other's submissions because it's in a quiz, but you'll have that nice easy way to track each student's participation because it is tied to the gradebook. School-wide voting, a lot of schools use Canvas or their LMS or even just Google Forms to do voting types of things like Homecoming, Royalty, Student Council ideas just to generate ideas or student responses. And if you do it in the form of a quiz then you have a already tabulated score at the end. So, again it's a question generator so it doesn't have to be a scored test to use a Canvas quiz. And then finally we have the infamous exit ticket doing it in the form of a quiz. So in order to leave class today or go to lunch, just answer this question. And then you can have that be your simple one or two question exit ticket that is either self-graded or open response and then you take a look at those responses later on. So I hope that gives you hopefully multiple ideas of ways you can create some core content with Canvas. I know that this was fast and furious and we weren't able to go in depth with any of the ideas. If you are attending the ESU 8 winter workshop later this month in January 2017, I will have a session that is the same content, the same ideas where we can practice this a little more slowly and try some of them out. There's also always the great help that's available through the Canvas guides online community.canvas.lms.com There's a Fast Track series there's all kinds of different there's a YouTube channel that Canvas has put up great short videos on and then there's the step guides that are easy to read and follow if you have a specific skill you're looking to do. Sometimes these aren't helpful though if you don't know what you're looking for you don't know what you don't know and so that's why I wanted to share with you today just this menu choices of ideas If you have better ones or additional ones please share back with me so that I can share them with the rest of our teachers and if you ever have any questions or need any help don't hesitate to reach out to us at ESU 8 Thanks so much for listening and have a great rest of the week.


Well To be in part here for I would say a solid three days I've edited I Don't know something like 10 videos or something 10 to 14 I don't know how many days buffer. I'm gonna have but it's gonna be pretty significant. Um The video I was able to upload Recently, it's a polygamous polygamist video That took six hours to upload through my phone So I'm not gonna try that again today I'm gonna look for some Wi-Fi and if I can get a couple uploaded cool But if not, you know, it would be another day without an upload Which will add another day to my buffer, I suppose anyways, uh, just kind of fired up the bus getting it all warmed up It was another cold evening last night it's Dipping down under I should say below freezing, so it's pretty chilly out here and It is Monday have an appointment Friday In Portland, so I'll be making my way Towards the city I'm not really sure how many days it's gonna take me to get there I'm gonna no rush, but at the same time would be nice to kind of be there a couple days Before hand just for peace of mind. So Let's hit the road Over and take a little rest Turns out my blood sugar was a little bit low. So stopped in a store got some OJ Really was kind of incoherent, but I just wanted to show you guys I Believe these are mustard greens if anybody can confirm this Please do so in the comments. If not, I'm just gonna go with it based on what I feel like I've seen before He's definitely look a little Leafy and greeny Or maybe they're collared greens or something now this look I don't know There's something and they're pretty and they're yellow and there's like a giant field of unsew I did take a couple of photos for the Instagram So if you guys want to check those out, they should be up by the time this video is posted if not close close to that time Otherwise, I'm so thankful that I'm feeling so much better my hands were a little clammy a Little shaky I was thinking possibly was the altitude Because I don't do too well at high altitudes But I'm glad I figured that out and obviously only have myself to blame but also The beans and the vegetables because I wasn't getting a proper amount of carbohydrates in my system, which Is a good lesson now from now on I won't skip the rice and Put the rice in there and also have like bananas on hand and stuff like that. So anyways, let's continue driving Look at how beautiful this is Clearly I pulled over from driving and I'm gonna take a few photos, but this contrast is so cool. I Think Dan likes it too. What do you think Dan? That's right. I sure do See Hope you guys So right now I'm in a town called Dayton, Washington. This is the courthouse here in town and This is Washington's oldest courthouse. So this thing has been here since the very beginning and Says right here Washington became a state two years after that thing was built Hey guys check this out. That is a crop duster Yeah, well, I wonder how close he's gonna get He's out there spraying the fields having a good time I'm gonna try and get a little bit closer That looks like a fun job right there. I sure was cool, but I got a whiff of whatever he was spraying


Welcome, folks, this is Tom O'Brien of TFNN.  Hope everyone's having a great day, safe day. Let's make it a great night, folks. Be impeccable with your word. Manifest your true intentions. Regardless of what language you speak, your intent will be manifested through the word. What you dream, what you feel, and what you really are, will be manifested to what you say each and every day. That's, this is a dynamite card, man. Mockin' wise, let's take a look at it out here. We have the Dow Industrial's up 484. Nasdaq up 336, S&P's up 72. Gold contract trading down $9.30 at 17.80 an ounce. We have Silver down 14 cents, $19.99 an ounce. Light sweet crude off 370. $90.71 a barrel, notes and bonds. The 10-year flat, $120.03. 30 year down three ticks at $142.28 in King Dollar. King Dollar right now, trading. Where are you hiding on me? There we go, there it is. Up 240, trading 106.482. The yen is 134. The Euro is 101. The British Pounds is 121 to one US dollar. iPhone number's 877. 927648, give us a call, folks. Wanna know what's goin' on in your world and the world of the S&P's? Let's take a look at them, what do you have? Well, bottom line, we got the buyers out here. Inside the S&P, however, that being said, the bottom line is that you get a wicked contraction of volume in, but guess what? If it holds this 413, oh, it's free. You're goin' right to 417. 417 is the high of June 1st. That's what it's aiming for right now. We'll see how this clothes shakes out though. It's surprising that yesterday we did 63 million and we just came down a little low. This is really cool to see how price and volume work, folks. So watch this. If we go back to Friday, Friday, you made a high with 87 million shares. We're at 40 million today, so that means we're gonna do about 60, 65 million. So you light a good 20 million shares. Now watch this. Then you try to go to the high again with 69 million. So the correlation is 69 against 87. Then what do we do yesterday? We dipped on 63. Remember that. Higher with 69, dipped on 63. And today's gonna be the kicker, because if we don't do 63 today, that's saying that this thing still wants to back down. The S&P. That's how that sets up. Particularly because you actually should be doing about 80 right here that you're going after the swing. Okay, that's your S&P. Now, going to the Q's, you got a different animal. The Q's are gonna have the volume. That's the bottom line. The Q's out here, we've done 40 million already. You're way past the June 1st level. June 1st was 317. You're at 322. We've done 40 million. And this is gonna do 55, 60 million. So you're taking swings out, taking them out with volume. That's saying this thing go a lot higher, man. You know, I'm trying to figure this out right now. Let me just put this on a weekly. Because you passed, you got in the higher range. That's the bottom line. Yeah, you're getting the higher range, man. You're getting the higher range. Now let's do it this way. Yeah, watch this. This is so intriguing, man. Okay, so there we go. Okay, so 332. We're at 322. It's taken out the .382. The .382 is 308, you know. So this is what's really intriguing about this one, folks. If you're watching Tiger TV, where I'm going with this is the 50% retracement of the way down. Now the reason is that this, you know, when you look at this, you're normally trading swing to swing to swing. That's how markets work, right? But you can see we're in the middle of nowhere. You're already over this one swing here of, oh no, you're right at 330. And what did I say? The other one's 332. That's where we're going. We're going to the swing going back to May 4th. That's how it's set up. Gold, we look at the gold contract out here. Gold rejected the price today at 1770. Had 142,000 contracts. Not a lot of contract volume. That's what you want to see on the way back when you're going downtown. Because you'll see this when we, oh, there you go. Yesterday, you know, when it got to a higher price, you went to 174,000 contracts. A couple of days ago, you did 193. And you're back in into the 193 right now at 143. So that's a good set up that does want a higher price. Notes and bonds, let's look at this. Because yesterday, the tenure got absolutely smoked. You know, went to a higher high, got smoked. And yes, what though? Bottom line, you rejected lower price. Right where you should reject it mean you're coming back to a breakout area. You're going to have lighter volume. The bottom line is that you're going into 1.79 million contracts. You did, we did it to 1.1910. You rejected lower price. And you're only going to have 1.15, 1.5 million contracts. That's still saying, guess what? You know, this, what would you have here is this. Now, we got, get this straight. Yeah, because you get a complex ABC structure now. But it's working because, well, we'll see how it overtakes again the 1206. Right now you're at 1204. So you get a complex one. What that specifically means, you get back under the B again. We'll see how it goes when it gets over it. But it looks pretty good. That's the bottom line. Gold. We go take a look at the, was it gold next? I think I already did gold. No, no, dollar. That's right, dollar. That's what we want. So the dollar's running the deal still. And what's so cool about the dollar running the deal also, folks, is that, you know, you stop putting a few of these things together and you can kind of get a feeling of where this market wants to go. So on the dollar, what we did is this. We got to 106.819. Now, 106.792 is your benchmark. You get a little doge that's hanging there. It's like, okay, man, it really isn't telling us much. That's the bottom line. The market is saying that this is gonna pull back down again. Well, the broad market is the gold market really hasn't. So this is gonna get really intriguing watching this whole thing shake out. Some of the higher volume equities in this market today, you have advanced micro down to buck 65. You get Apple up 595. Amazon's up 579. Snaps up 44 cents. PayPal's up 790. Ping, I'm not sure what that is. Ping identity. That's someone's gonna get acquired by Thomas Bravo. Occidental's off 244. Tesla's up 22 bucks. You got Block up eight. You got Coinbase up 12. There's some action out here. Let's go inside the Dow Industries. The strength versus the weakness inside the Dow Industries. Point wise out here, you got Microsoft putting 52 positive points UnitedHealth. 45, Goldman 43, Salesforce 40, Disney 29. Taken away from it. Chevron minus 21, Walmart minus 16. Stay right there folks, come right back. At the time of booming inflation, we are purchasing powers eroded. There's no better place to protect your harder and money than in gold.

Let's go inside the NDX and see that strength versus the weakness inside the NDX out here. But Dern is up 17.5%, that's a number, huh?  Taken away from it. Match.com, Match Group is now down 17%. You got Exalant Corporation down 3.5, EFB and Bs off 2, and you got AMD down 1.8. Let's get it off, let me just, curious as to what Moderna is doing here. I know they come out with their numbers and their numbers are good, just. Oh, look at that. Whoa, baby, what? You talk about volatility, so pitch this. Five months ago, Moderna's at 188. Two months ago, it's at 115, and you're back to 188. Let me just pull this in a weekly now. I say, okay.  This is still quite a hit, this stock on a longer-term basis went from 497 down to 122. You're launching 188 though. So launching 188 is gonna be a number. That's saying it can go to 210. That's how that baby's set up right now. So, pretty good setup actually. Let's go take a look at the big, well actually, let's go take a look at Apple. So they're buying Apple, and of course you get fun buying here, folks. This is it though, this is the bottom line. So you got, I think Apple was an ABC up, yeah. So that was an ABC up. Let me just, I forgot what the number was though. 156, one second, there we go. Okay, so you got, there it is right there, right, yeah. 156, well, that was only 14, that gave you 164. Let's see, okay. So 164 is the A to B equals C to D, you know. And you can see, you're basically getting over the high of last Thursday, you know, but the price is sticking. So the price sticking is a big deal. Now this is what's pretty cool watching this. This is what you try to do, folks, on a continual basis, since we're in the probability business, is that you're trying to bring as much as you can into your decision, whether you're going long, going short, doing spreads. And you can see where I have my cursor right now, this 166 that Apple made it here. Well, that's where the cues also want to go. So this is going to get intriguing as to what's gonna basically get them up there, you know. There it is right there, the same day. And there's this decent volume that day, that's what's also going on there. So that number, it's gonna dig right into that number. That number's 330, and we hit 322, 42 today. So I believe, let's go to eBay, because I believe eBay's coming out with numbers after the close today. Let's see, so you got the third, it's after the close. They are going to be looking for, okay. So they're looking for 2.4 billion, and 89 cents to the bottom line. Top line, 2.4 billion, bottom line, 89 cents. Okay, so let's put this on a weekly. So you know what's so intriguing, folks? This is when you look at some of these equities, you can see, well, I can see why the bottom line, I think that we're off the lows. Because watch this, eBay went from 81 to 40. It was a 50% hit. There's a lot of them that are like this, man. That, you know, a 50% hit, man, that's a hit. So there's people that have portfolios that are down, and were down a lot more than 30%. Okay, so eBay, you put this on a daily again, because the weekly's not telling me anything. So the daily, okay, right there, what is that? What is that? That's 47 bucks. Top 51. Yeah, you know what, there's not much here, man. This is gonna get interesting. What this has done, right, this has come up to ICE. ICE is $51.82, because it's easy on this one because you got a gap right there. And we're right at it, but you know, you had a contraction of volume out here today. You're coming into 19 million, you only did 4.3, and last Thursday we did 7.3. So that's telling me that this thing's gonna back down after the close. It's gonna be intriguing watching that, for sure. You know what I mean? Okay, how is this baby going? Where's it gonna go? You know, why is it going there, all of the above? We go, take a look at the, let's go into the TLT and take a look at the TLT, because that bond move was extraordinary yesterday, no doubt, got to a higher hide and gave it up. Yeah, see, they still want higher price, man. So you get the TLT, this is 20 or plus, right? Bottom line, you came down yesterday, and what you actually had done with the TLT is made a higher high with volume. And today you did, so you did 17 million shares yesterday, you quit and hold price, you back down. Today you do 10 million, it rejected lower price, this is gonna launch, man. This is so diabolical, it's unbelievable, that the rates continue to want, the rates that you and I pay continue to want to go lower versus the fed fund rate, okay, which is the bank to bank rate overnight rate, you know. We'll see where it goes. Let's take a look at a couple of these, oh, I gotta tell you this too, we do, so check this out, we're talking inflation, right? Let me look at Home Depot first, I gotta tell you the story, man, because this was like amazing yesterday, a blue one nine action. Okay, so Home Depot, yeah, this has to build more costs in order to get the higher price. Okay, oh, I know what we should do, we gotta look at roofers, so this would happen. So the, right now I'm building four houses, four, five, five I think, four, four, four. I just started another one, right, literally two days ago. So when you start the house folks, okay, all the bids go out and all this, okay, so we really get an understanding of what has happened inflation wise, so listen to this, man, this is crazy. Now there's two different things, the roofing quote went from, normally I pay 15,900 for a roof, and with that, that entailed, I build two houses when I build these together, I build the main house of approximately 2,000 feet, then I build a studio with either 441 or 661 with either two or three car garage. Bottom line, the roofing price went from 15,900 to $12,000. This is the same people I use all the time, and I keep them all straight because I keep bidding them all up. So you talk about coming down on price 15,900 to 12. Now this is what also happened in Florida, so it's a little bit different. I can't wait to see the rest of these bids coming in, I'll let you know how they're coming in. So what in Florida would happen is this, is that there's so much fraud going on in the retail business of people scamming roofs, okay, that it's turned into a mess. Well the bottom line is that they finally got a grip on it that you can't scam the insurance companies as easy as you, and that happened two weeks ago. So the roofing people in general slowed down immediately. I talked to the guy and he said, yeah, that slowed down, but he told me flat out that the business in general is slowing down and that the prices that he's paying for the roof slowing down. So this is gonna get really intriguing because I've never had a price decrease like that. I've had a price increase like that 16 months ago. That's when the prices all went bonkers. But it's gonna be really cool, man, if you get a few more of those that you pull back, I wouldn't expect 25%, but 10% would be good.  Stay right there, folks who come right back. We have the Dow Industries up 448 and Aztec up 318, S&Ps up 66 who come right back.


So what is the ideal study schedule of a medical student? That's exactly what we'll bring down in this video. All right guys, what is going on? Welcome to another episode in the MD journey as well as the TMJ show. My name is Lux. I'm an internal medicine resident helping people just like you succeed on their medical journey with less stress. And today is going to be one of my favorite videos that I'll probably do on the channel, which is breaking you down with the ideal study schedule a medical student will be like. I'm gonna do it on my tablets and hopefully you guys can see step by step how I think about setting up your study schedule and hopefully you guys can use a similar approach to help you out on your journey. Before we begin, you know, if you're new to this channel or if you haven't done so already, consider subscribing to this channel and hitting that notification bell to get two videos like this one on thrown to you at a weekly basis as well as supporting this video specifically in hitting that like button. And also don't forget to comment down below with any questions you have regarding studying and doing better at medical school. I'm gonna go ahead and take you straight into my tablet. And essentially what we're gonna do today is I'm gonna break to you kind of how do you go from point A to point C in studying? How do you get from the part where you acquire the information to the part where you're studying and prepping for your exams? I'm already gonna apologize because my selling is awful, but we're gonna get the point anyways. So, you know, the first step is you need to acquire the information. And then we're gonna go into step C, we'll call it four, that may change from now is prepping for exam and what your study schedule should be at different parts of that. So essentially we can go ahead and break it down on a Monday to Friday to Saturday schedule. So we're gonna say Monday, and then we can just say a weekend because I'm gonna assume that your Saturday and Sunday schedules are gonna be kind of similar or you pick one of the two days to do some study.  Now probably continue all the way through from 12 to one, probably have a lunch or something. And then from one to all the way till we'll just say nine p.m. is kind of the question. So like what should I do during this time? Obviously you may have obligations like a lab, you know, if you're doing an Adam lab or different things during these afternoons, but just assume that primarily we'll talk about the ones that are open and how should you be studying them. So I'm gonna assume initially that you're a class goer and they'll give you some different ideas of how to approach it. But the first thing that I like to do between that one to nine spot, ideally you can make the shorter or you stop studying at seven p.m., but again, we'll just say one to nine for now, is to go ahead and ask yourself, step number one is how do you wanna review the material? So you want to go ahead and do it through several options, you know, you can do it through. Flashcards, do you wanna create an outline? Do you wanna kind of essentially write down what you saw? Do you like to do group studying and meeting with people? But the main thing here is the first hour or so that you're gonna be spending studying is where you probably have the most motivation.  That takes a lot of motivation to do in the first place. And you have to get started and get the ball rolling. So you don't wanna start with something that you don't enjoy. So I recommend doing something that's one easy to get started with and two, able to keep motivated. So let's say you figure out that your preferred form of review is doing flashcards. So once you decide what your form of review is, number two is to give yourself a cut off on how long you wanna be spending doing that specific technique for each lecture. Unfortunately, sometimes med students think that because you have eight hours to study, you can spend as much as you want on lecture number one and eventually finish that and go to lecture two and go to lecture three. What happens is that you'll spend an excessively long amount of time on lecture one, maybe an average amount of time on lecture two and not enough on lecture three, even if you get to it. So you have to create yourself kind of blocks. You know, how much time do I see this lecture taking?  So the way I do it is I evaluate all my lectures. So let's say there's lecture one, two, and three. And I kind of give them percentages, like how long do I think you'll take me to do? Using the technique that I like. So if I'm using flashcards, you know, usually I can do, what to say, lecture one is 30 pages or it's 50 slides. Then let's say lecture two is 25, so pretty similar. And it's 40 slides. Then we'll say lecture 30 is about 20 pages, but we'll say that the professor got a little crazy and they made them 60 slides. Now when I do this, I can take a step back and already see kind of where my study schedule is what may have some struggles. So I can see that because I like to use flashcards and you guys can check out my technique that I prefer using in med school. Because I go primarily off the slides when I'm learning, that 60 slide lecture is gonna take me much more time. You know, a 40 slide and a 50 slide. So I need to be able to account for that extra time towards my last lecture. So what I'm gonna say is, well, 60 is going to take me, let's say, one and a half hours. I'm just making up time at this point, but you pick what you think is comfortable for the amount of work you need to do. And I say, well, I can do 40 in about an hour, and I can do 50 in about an hour and 15 minutes. So you pick that time. So now you kind of have an approximate approach of what you wanna do. So now we're gonna say we're starting the study at one, so about one to 130 is where I'm just gathering my information and trying to get ready for the day. It also counts for any kind of laziness on my part to actually sit down and get to work. So I'm gonna say, just, you know, prepare. And then eventually from 130, sorry about that, to an hour and 15 minutes later, so that would be, I do my math right, and I'll be about, what is that, 245, is how I'll be spending doing lecture number one. And then what I like to do next is I like to get myself a 15 and a break between major tasks to one account for any task taking a little bit longer than I need and two also just giving myself a break because usually by that time you need one. So I'll say the next task will start at three o'clock and because I said the next lecture will take me about an hour, we'll say three to four. We'll be a lecture two and then we're gonna go ahead and add another 15 minute kind of break in case the next task takes us a bit of time and we're gonna go from four to 15. We said lecture three is gonna be our longest one. It's gonna take us an hour and a half. So that's gonna bring us down to about 545. And as a bonus tip, as you get further and further into your steady schedule, your last task is usually gonna take a little bit more time than you think just because you're more fatigue, you have less motivation. So usually I add a 15 minute buffer and you can choose to do this if you want. But I usually will say that it will go until 16. That just gives me a little bit more flexibility if I'm tired or if I need more frequent breaks to say I can still get it done in my desired time interval. So from one to about six o'clock, you've reviewed all three lectures of your materials. Now step number three is preparing for the next day. Or if you don't enjoy preparing for the next lecture, maybe you just don't enjoy reading the syllabus or slides, you may wanna have the lecture explained to you. So then you can go out and learn. That's completely fine. You can use this time to go ahead and review for exams and this is kind of what I would recommend and do. Again, you guys can check out the link down below to see my full study system.  And what I would say is essentially the good way to go about doing this is you wanna ask yourself, what's your cutoff time? You know, is it 9 p.m., is it 7 p.m.? And ask yourself, how much more time do I wanna be spending each day? Like what time do I wanna finish doing everything? Now, if you've said it's 7 p.m., then you go ahead and look at your schedule and you're saying, well, I'm finishing at 6 p.m. I'm gonna give myself a 15 at a block. So I'm not gonna start until 6.15. And that means if I'm gonna go all the way to 7 then I can give myself 45 minutes to review. And this could be doing practice questions through a question bank. You can be doing flashcards from old lectures that you've had, but you picked during this time. Again, this is not to say, here's a study schedule. This is when you should be reading. This is when you should do a flashcard. This is when you should be doing outlines. This is how I approach evaluating what I need to do each day and also still getting done at a reasonable hour. Now, this is going to essentially break down my weekdays and I'm gonna tell you kind of how I would break down each of my weekdays. So for the weekend schedule, I'm gonna assume Saturdays and Sundays are both fair game. Although I recommend you take at least a half day off for each of those. Again, you guys can check out more blog posts that we'll link down below to help you. But again, I think that's the best time to help you get revitalized. For the weekend, what I would do is I would spend one half days, usually for like nine to 12. And I would review all of the lectures from the first half of the week. So I would review lectures from Monday to Wednesday and then either Saturday evening, which would be approximately three to six. I would do the rest. So I would go ahead and review from Thursday to Friday and usually I would put a nice solid six hours on a weekend day. Now, if you follow my principles, giving yourself at least a half day off, then Sunday you can do a few things. You can wake up early or get some sleep and from nine to approximately 10, about two hours, you can do some form of review for that week or a week before. That is totally up to you. But essentially this is going to be an exam prep.  Do you wanna do practice questions? Do you wanna review the material from the previous week and just do as much as you can in two hours? And this should be like nine to 11, sorry. And then I would give myself another two hours to do one of two things. Again, this depends on your preference. So either do some more review or prep for the next day's lecture. So if I like making my flashcards ahead of time, like I told you guys in that video down below, then you can use this and this will be a perfect time to do it. So that guys would be how I would lay down my weekend study schedules. Now again, I wanna put it together because I know it gets a little bit messy on the tablet. So essentially, you know, your weekdays, you know, you go to lecture in the morning although I recommend that if you don't have to and a lot of your institutions may not force you to be mandatory, then you can go ahead and speed lesson from home and cut half of your time here. So instead of three hours, I was gonna be marking how much time each activity takes. So instead of three hours, you may be able to take that down to like one and a half if you can listen at 2X. And then the second thing you wanna do is you wanna start your review. So whatever method that is for you. And again, the way you do this is you evaluate how much information is on each lecture, each course, and you go ahead and extrapolate how much time you need to do it. Now this really depends on your study system as well as how long the lecture is on. If they can take three to six hours. And then finally, the degree on those days is either do more review. So we can just call this again, test prep or prepare for the next day. Usually I will keep this under one to 1.5 hours. And so things like practice questions, question bangs, more flashcards if you wanna do it. Those are good. And then in terms of weekend, I would say the first thing you wanna do is review the lectures from Monday to Wednesday. And this can take you three to four hours. And again, ideally you've already done the review the first time. So this is going to be a little bit quicker than your review the last time. So if you're asking, can I do a review in three or four hours, the answer should ideally be yes. So you need a better study technique to get there. And then number two would be at a different time block, whether it's the same day or on the next weekend day. I'm gonna go ahead and start reviewing Thursday to Friday. Now usually this takes you a lot of time because you only have to do two lectures. But sometimes if you take Friday evening off, for example, you may not have time to do that review for the weekday. So you can spend more time doing it on that weekend day. And then three is to go ahead and do test prep. And I usually will dedicate another two to three hours of this. Again, one thing I want you guys to focus on is when I create these study schedules, I'm giving them in the form of blocks because then you can say, well, maybe I don't have enough time to do it on this day. I'm gonna move this time block dedicated for this specific task. I'm gonna move it to another day or I'm gonna split it into two and I'm gonna move it here and here in my study schedule. This way you don't become overwhelmed, but it requires you to look at each task and ask yourself realistically, how long will this take me? And then you can put together a nice study schedule that'll get you from both acquiring the information as well as studying and preparing for exams. And the last thing I wanna leave you guys with is kind of how to study on test week because that's gonna be a little bit different. Essentially what I would do is usually I would start prepping already two weeks in advance and I know a lot of your institutions may have tests on a different schedule. But for this video, I'm gonna give you an example where you have a test every four weeks because that's usually typical for a lot of institutions. So I'm gonna say step number one is to start studying two weeks in advance.  But essentially if I broke it down into Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and then we'll say Saturday, Sunday, I'll say week one, week two. And I'm gonna say the test days here. Then what I would tell you to do is these days are going to be a little bit more intensive is to find a nice two hour block if you can to start reviewing. So I'd just say for example, you have 20 lectures to do. So go ahead and divide them by the number of days you have available. So this gives you one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11. 11 days to study for the 20-ish lectures that you have. And one thing that I like to do personally is I like to review each lecture twice. So instead of 20 lectures, we'll say I have 40 lectures and I only have 11 days to do it. That breaks down to about three to four lectures per day and so during these two to four hours on a Monday evening, during my review of test prep time, I'll go ahead and do lecture one to three. And then so one, two, three, or lecture one to four depends on what you want to do. And then you can just continue to count over on each respective day to count four. So this would be a lecture, we'll say four, eight, and then nine to 12, and so forth and so on. So this may be a lecture 13 to 17. And then maybe, you know, you're still on lecture 14 or 15 in your class material. So what I would just say is go ahead and start over at lecture one through four, and then go ahead and do five through nine. And then eventually you can add the new lectures into that system. So go ahead and plan out your two weeks, ask yourself what three to four lectures or however many you need, depending on how much material is on your quiz, and give yourself that two hour block each evening to do it to where you can repeat each lecture review twice. Now keep in mind, I know this seems like a lot, but the first day, the day of the material, you've already reviewed the material after a class, ideally you reviewed it now on the weekends. You may have reviewed it again on a test prep session on a weekend when you're reviewing old material. And now you're going through both your fourth and fifth iteration of this material. So you should begin faster and faster review at this time, as long as you're using the technique that is well suitable for you. So that guys breaks down how I would look at a study schedule when you're acquiring information, as well as when you're prepping on test week, kind of how to design it in a way where you look at all of your to-dos in the form of blocks, where you can still get everything done. But if you want a more over the shoulder approach of how I study, you can check out one of the videos that I've made on YouTube that I'll link down below, or you can get a free aid step video course that kind of breaks you step by step on a lot of these different techniques. And if you want even more help on creating a study system that is perfect for you, personalized to you, and we do have a three week study system to help you do just that on theamdjourney.com. It's called Level Up Your Study. You can actually see what a lot of our past students, what kind of results they're getting, the reviews that they're giving, and those will all be linked down below.

That is a wonderful, wonderful inspiration there by Vanessa. Amazing, amazing and indeed we acknowledge that she's doing an amazing job. And this time, you know, this Easter season it will be so wrong that it aisha tuivo na hujapokea yesu kawamu kwa ziwako. Because naku muka tu kiazisha series here, where are you? And that series showed us that man was separated from go because of sin. And because of that separation, go began a journey of reconciliation by sending his one and only son. And the book of Isaiah tells us that this son became the lamp of God that was laying. He was led to the cross, silent. He led himself to the cross and then John tells us on that cross he said it is finished, meaning every battle was fully won, every sentence was fully served, every debt was fully paid and he gave up his spirit because he was not killed.  Ye aliji give up and that's how he died. And John tells us when they pierced his side blood and water came out because he was bathing at church, his bride, his church, Jesus Christ was bathing. And when this blood comes out, the blood of Jesus Christ, when it dropped down heave, the book of Hebrews tells us that that blood speaks better things than any other blood. It speaks even better than the blood of those gods nasijikina Abel.   Don't keep silent and only the only person who can enjoy this blood is one who has received Jesus Christ. And today I'm here to pray with someone who wants to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. This wonderful Easter. It is the greatest miracle that has ever happened in the face of humanity receiving Jesus Christ, the salvation. The word of God says that Jesus Christ is our Lord God over our salvation. So come on, takako kukasai, mazesi timingine sa'i, umatuafta mimi. Say Lord Jesus, I acknowledge that I am a sinner in need of a Savior and on this day I receive you Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Forgive me and help me with the Holy Spirit to walk in the faith of salvation. Thank you for your death, thank you for the salvation. Today I receive the nature of Jesus Christ in Jesus mighty name. Father, thank you for each and every person who has made this prayer. Walk with them, strengthen their salvation, strengthen their walk. Oh no, do not let them call my father, hold them in the mighty name of Jesus. We thank you for this opportunity and for this show and for these two of us. We give you glory and honor in Jesus mighty name. Amen. Thank you so much for everyone who tuned in. We've come to the end of the show. Next to Malizia Lafutushi. All right. Thank you so much.


What's the word, y'all? One trade for every NBA team before the 2022 training camp. I normally wouldn't get this in Iran because it's late August. Nobody's making trades, right? Well, the Lakers just made a trade like three days ago. So I guess anything is a possibility. But I saw two of the trades on Twitter this morning. And if those two trades are setting the bar for the other 28, this article ain't about to be good, y'all, but I'm here to react to some potential trades. I'm getting a lot of questions like, Kenny, what you been on on Kenny for real? Reality is, there's not a lot to talk about. I don't want to be one of those guys dropping a Kevin Arant video after every part of the rumors come out or drop an entire video about Patrick Beverly being traded to the Lakers. So, you know, I've been uploading on my Kenny 2 channel, which is daily NBA content as well. Just tune in over there if you're really interested in more. Kelly Ubrey and James Booknight in the 2023 first round pick for Clint Capella. This is interesting. I did read a rumor earlier this morning about Kelly Ubrey potentially being on the move. We'll see what the reality of that is. And the Charlotte Hornets have been trying to get a legit center for some time now. They drafted Mark Williams, which might be something for the future, but right now they could use some help here. It's costing him James Booknight. And I understand a lot of people are turned off by James Booknight because he only played a couple of games this season. In the games he played, he was shooting like 30% from the field and he was shot chucking. He was like, I gotta get my own buckets. But I wouldn't give up on him just yet. I will probably give him another year or half a year where he's getting like okay minutes to really determine what he is. But I will be honest with you, his mode in the NBA is a bit rough to be a successful NBA player in his body, in his frame, and with his shot appetite, I guess is the word. Number two, the Boston Celtics trade paid in picture for Kenyon Martin Jr. in a 2024 second round pick. This is kind of another trade. Kevin Martin Jr., Kenyon Martin Jr. said that he kinda won it out a little while ago and he's still there. So this will be a situation where he will go and probably get some minutes as a bigger wing slash forward on the Boston Celtics. And Payton Pritchard's kind of played out of the rotation. Now you got Malcolm Brogdon, another ball handler to be on the team. Now you got Marcus Smart, Malcolm Brogdon. Jalen Brown could ball handle it a little bit. And Jason Tatum as a ball handler. Payton Pritchard might fall out of the rotation. But if those off season workouts I'd be seeing, it's right, Payton Pritchard in for a big season. Which is why we don't really pay attention to those off season workouts. Patrick Williams off season workouts like him and like he's legit Kawhi Leonard. He's not. The next trade is the Brooklyn Nets getting Miles Turner. I mean, since everything is cool and gravy and they about to go in a hoop again, if you could turn Joe Harris, Daeron Sharp in a first round pick to Miles Turner, do it 100% of the time. Can you convince the Indiana Pacers to take Joe Harris' contract? Now Joe Harris, you know, unfortunately he had the injury last season. But before that, you know, he was pretty solid. He's actually one of the best shooters in all the basketball. Daeron Sharp flashes and then that first round pick if you're gonna build around Katie and Kyrie and we're saying that we won't get another episode where Katie wants out, bringing in Miles Turner would be amazing because right now they don't have a lot of great center play. They got Nicholas Klaxon who seemed to be okay and there's rumors that Ben Simmons might be the starting center this season, which would be dope. But having a guy like Miles Turner, you ain't gotta worry about nothing cause he's gonna stretch the floor to allow Ben to do in the dunker spots stuff and he's gonna block shots at the rim. This trade right here makes Brooklyn, that's a whole another level. That's all I'm saying. Another center for the Charlotte Horn is this one being yuck up for PJ, Kai Jones in the second round pick. Do we have to really react to every single trade? I'm skipping this. Chicago Bulls, Kobe White for Iska Coro. I don't have an opinion. The Chicago Bulls were one of the worst three point shooting teams in all the basketball last season. Kobe White, low key, good three point shooter. Again, we got a log gym at the guard position so I understand why the Bulls fans want him to trade it and I ain't saying I disagree. Bringing to Iska Coro for his defense will be cool but we also are the worst shooting team, three point shooting team in basketball, or one of the worst three point shooting teams in basketball. Iska Coro is one of the worst three point shooting wings in basketball so you know, don't know how much I love that. I do love the defense though. I do love the defensive Iska Coro. He's one of the better young defenders in all the basketball. So if this trade happened, I could talk myself into being excited about this but the Cavaliers, this is probably contingent on like if Colin Sexton is signed in trade to like the Mavericks or something and they need another creator off the bench or something. Now Kobe White fits it to that role. I mean, I'm spending a lot of time in the Bulls because it's the Bulls. They drafted Ochi who can kind of do some of the stuff Iska Coro does on the defense and also as a plus shooter. So you know, I'm just saying, I could talk myself into this but it's not something I'm like, oh, yay, let's do it, especially with the two seconds. And I know second round picks don't mean nothing but I want to remind you that we got Ayuda Sumu in the second round last year. Cleveland Cavaliers, Reggie Bullock. Oh, here we go. This is exactly what I was talking about. Reggie Bullock in the first round pick for Colin Sexton. Honestly, I would rather keep Colin Sexton on the one year in the, you know, potentially lose him in free agency to just trade him for Reggie Bullock. Not saying that Reggie Bullock is a bad player at all but Colin Sexton is a legit 20 point per game player off the bench. I would like that even if it is just for one last year. Dallas Mavericks, you know what? I low key forgot that Kimmel Walker was still on the roster. For some reason in my mind, he got traded there and they got like bought out, waved or whatever the words are to having a Dallas Mavericks. Wouldn't be bad because they just lost Jaylen Brunson. Let's take a flyer on a guy that just two, three years ago, not even three years ago, two seasons ago, was really good in the NBA and retraining to White Powell, who at this point after we signed Javale McGee and got Christian Woods kind of expendable, I would do this trade in the hard beat if I'm the Dallas Mavericks. And if I'm the Detroit Pistons, getting a second round pick for Kimmel, which is kind of a dump, seems like a W to me. This is like a nothing trade that I think both organizations can look at and be like, I'll do that. Jared Vanderbilt for Payton Watson. Now, I understand that the Utah Jazz are selling some of these pieces. We just saw Patrick Beverly get traded, but I feel like V8 would have more value than just a rookie. Now, I guess this guy was a five star guy going into college. I don't watch high school ball to know if he's actually that nice or not. But I feel like Jared Vanderbilt might maybe can get you more, maybe I'm bugging. But if I'm the Denver Nuggets to get V8 back and now he's actually a contributing NBA player? Dumb. I don't care about Payton Watson at this point. We're building around Jokic in his prime and we're building around Jamal Murray. We're building around Micro Portage. Oh, okay, those people are not, you're building around Jokic in his prime. Having a guy like V8 would be dope. That's all I'm saying. Detroit basketball, so they would get Danny Green who's out for majority of the season or all of the season with an ACL tear. Get two second round picks and they throw in Ali Burks to the Memphis Grizzlies to low key can help the Memphis Grizzlies. Ali Burks is a solid NBA player. I mean, listen, if I can throw Ali Burks and get a couple of picks back, I would do that in the hard beat as well. But I legit think that Ali Burks in Neural is No Wail can help the Detroit Pistons as far as like locker room leaders and just on court being, okay, go to state warriors. Okay, this is the trade I saw on Twitter. So brace yourself. It was Mason Plumbly, James Book Knight in two first round picks for Jordan Poole and James Wiseman. They're saying this because of how expensive this team is about to be because Jordan Poole is gonna be up for an extension and obviously Jordan Poole is probably gonna get a lot of money because they're gonna be super young and just had a really, really good breakout season. And then James Wiseman, who the heck knows was going on with them. But to say that this is the package we're getting, a guy who we just talked about play like 20 minutes in all of this rookie season and shot 30%. I'm exaggerating, but you give what I'm saying. And then Mason Plumbly, who everybody considers a below average starting center and we're trading, I mean, two future first. Yay! I hate it. I think there are ways to orchestrate this roster where you can pay Jordan Poole and feel okay about it. And giving up on James Wiseman already feels a bit weird in this circumstances, considering once he's up for an extension, it's not like he gonna be needing a lot of money.  I just didn't like this trade at all. If I'm no hornets, two first round picks might be interesting. But like Lamello and Jordan Poole together in the backcourt seems fun. They might not defend a lot, but it seems fun. And then James Wiseman with Lamello Ball throwing them lobs might be fun too. I like how like certain team standard for me is like, can they be fun versus other team standards? Like, are they, are this, is this trade gonna make them better? Houston Rockets. Okay, this picture is intriguing. Donovan Mitchell for Eric Gordon, Kevin Porter Jr. Kenya Martin Jr. Oh, Usman Graba, first round pick from Milwaukee, which is close to value list. No, okay, I can't say that, but it's a late first round pick. A Brooklyn Nets 2024 first round pick. I mean, that could be interesting, but again, they just committed to stay together. We'll see how long that lasts. Another Brooklyn pick, and then 20-28 first rounder. I don't like this trade. For either side, really. Jaylen Green and Donovan Mitchell in the backcourt together would, I don't know how that's working long-term. You know what I'm saying? I don't like this for either side. I legit don't like this for either side. I'm not trading Donovan Mitchell for a late first round pick, probably two late first round picks, maybe three late first round pick again. The NBA is volatile, and 20-26, Kevin O'Rourke could be on the team, Kari could be on the team, Ben Sibbs could be on the team, but like, I don't like this trade for either side at all. Wow, everybody else got, I was gonna say you have picks of them in Jersey, that's not true. Miles Turner got a turtleneck and a Texas Longhorn chain, which is kind of firing on Angolati. I mean, I can't say that's a Texas Longhorn chain, but it's, okay. Joe Harris, this is the same trade, but they traded, instead of putting Daeron Shark, they put Cam Thomas. That's lazy. CMR and Junior for Jason Preston, Miles Turner, Buddy Hill. Now this is the trade that everybody's been talking about. This is the second trade that I saw, obviously. Everybody was talking about this trade for the last couple of days since the Patrick Beverly trade went down. And if I will say this right now, if the Lakers can somehow pull this trade off, the Lakers can contend. With Patrick Beverly, Buddy Hill, LeBron, Anthony Davis and Miles Turner, I think that starting five has defensive versatility enough where the Lakers can defend. They have offense. They don't have a ton of shot creators over there, but they still have versatility defensively. LeBron is still great. Anthony Davis bounce back season. Miles stretches the floor and allows Anthony Davis to be the position that he wants to play. Buddy Hill is a sharpshooter that LeBron ain't played with since I don't know when. And then Patrick Beverly don't miss the playoffs. Now the bench is still give you a lot to be desired. You got Lonnie Walker, you know? But that five makes me super excited. Now this would basically get rid of all of their entire asset pool though. So like we talk about improving that bench, it would have to be like halfway through the season, buy-out market, boom, this player is out there, DeAndre Jordan, no, no, no, that won't make the scene better. But like buy-out market, people want to play with LeBron and Anthony Davis. But that starting five would be really, really interesting. I would be excited about that. And if I'm the Indiana Pacers, I'd like this trade as well because this pick, this pick now it is the Lakers and the Lakers somehow find a way to become at least competent, it seems like a lot. This pick might be the most valuable thing on the trade market right now. Now I understand we're in 2022 and we're talking seven years in the future, but this pick, I'm just saying, even this pick, it's top three protected, but this pick too. Miffus Grizzlies, Josh Richardson. Okay, so they're just trying to turn Danny Green who's injured in a couple of seconds to a player that can play. I understand that. That's a lot of second rail picks for Josh Richardson. Not saying that he's bad or anything. Maybe not as good as he was in Miami, but if I could get three second round picks and I'm the Spurs who seem like they don't want to compete for anything anyway, why not? They got a solid track record with second round picks. Miami Heat, Harrison Barnes for Duncan Robson, Nikola Jovic, Yurt Seven and a first round pick. If I'm trading the first round pick this far out in my future, I feel like I want more than Harrison Barnes, but Harrison Barnes is a really, really quality player and he will fit the hole in that powerful position that they lost with PJ Tucker. So understand that. But again, if I'm mortgaging this far in the future I would want a little bit more, but similar to the Lakers, they are the Miami Heat and they always find a way to be competitive. So maybe you don't care about this, especially if it's top seven protected. Bo Yan, Bogdanovich, Brook Lopez, George Hill in the 2029 first round pick top three protected. Similar situation. If I'm trading to pick this far out I want a little bit more than Bogdanovich, but they're the Milwaukee Bucks. But you know what? Yan is dead. Said he might want to play in Chicago and by this time he might beat her. Don't take none of that serious. Mike Conley and Jordan Clarkson for the Angelo Russo in the second round pick. Ooh, we just traded in the league Beasley who was like our off the bench flamethrower type. We can replace him with Jordan Clarkson who just won six man a year a couple of years ago. Mike Conley versus the Angelo Russo, who's better, who's worse? Both of them, if I'm not mistaken on expiring deals or near expiring deals. If I'm Minnesota, I'm interested. Now, it took Mike Conley a year to learn how to throw lobs to Rudy Gobert. Oh, he would be doing the same thing.  What if Rudy Gobert is like, I just kind of want to get away from everything that was Utah Jazz related. Can I get a fresh start? The Angelo Russo as a lob creator. Is that even a thing? It's probably better than Mike Conley. You know, probably better than Mike Conley. But the Angelo Russo hasn't played with a legit lob threat in some time. He had V8, you know what I'm saying? Who did it? And currently Towns is good for a couple. But this will, of course, Rudy Gobert is the best lob threat he's ever played with. Garrett Temple, Kyrillus Jr. In a second for TJ McConnell. It's interesting. I don't really love it just because I feel like there's a lot of ball handlers over there already between Zion, CJ, Vante Graham. Oh, Kyrillus Jr. considering he's still on the roster. I mean, I'm counting Brandon Ingram. You know, there's a lot of people to, Jose Alvarado, I don't know how to mention that name. I don't need to add another one of those guys. I don't like this trade. Here's the one. New York Knicks basketball, Evan Fournier, I'll be topping the menu quickly. One first round to two first round to three first round to four. But you know what? These picks are so far in the future, maybe it's a no. If I'm the Knicks, I'd much rather give up some of the picks that I got in draft night. Some of the closer picks than give up 25, 25, 27, 29. Gary Trent Jr. Gary Trent Jr. for Derrick Favors, Derries, Bazely, and they all maladone. What's the argument for the Raptors? Is it that he's on the last year of his deal and we don't know if he's gonna go somewhere else? Because that's all I can really think about. Because everything else, why would I trade Gary Trent Jr. for this? Ew, I'm the Toronto Raptors. We're just a playoff team. And we're probably gonna be better this year because people are gonna get older and get more experience under the belt. I'm not trading Gary Trent Jr. for this. That's terrible. Oh, but if I'm the O.K.C. Thunder, I'm probably not either because if he's on the last of his deal, Chad Holmgren just tore his something. Get well soon. Not tore. Just had some problems, so he's gonna be done for the season. Am I just doing this so shade? Can be like, oh, we got somebody that can hoop? I don't love it. Orlando Magic. Oh, this trade I love. Okay, maybe not this exact one, but the idea of Donovan Mitchell and Orlando, I absolutely love it. If it does only cost John Isaac and giving up on Jalen Suggs after one season, Terrence Ross, the Bulls pick from this season, a 25 and 27. I like this. Havin' Palo, Markel, Cole Anthony still on the roster. Wendell, you got, you got Franz. I'm just saying, if I'm at all these trades so far, the one that makes me the most excited as far as fun factor is Donovan Mitchell playing with Ben Carroll. Corey Joseph, Forthible, Skip. Like, come on. Sons get Terrence Ross. Terrence Ross should be traded, but they say they love him in the locker room and everything and that's why he hasn't been moved yet for Landry Shaman. I mean, they be passing Landry Shaman around since his rookie season, so I guess that's fine, but he would add another element of bench creation, something that they haven't had in Phoenix. The Portland Trailblazers get Ken Rich who can't be traded. So why, the name of this article are trades before training camp. He can't be traded before, Skip. Wiggins, ooh, Wiggins on the move, HB going back to the Warriors and Kevin Herter who can't be traded. Call it till August 30th. No. Who walks out of this trade thinking that they did a good job? If I'm the Spurs, and this package comes across, I'll probably say yeah. As a team that's young and in the rebuild, even though they do have a lot of guards over there, I would take a fly on James Book Knight. It feels weird. James Book Knight doesn't seem like a guy. They'll be a pop guy, but who knows? Who knows? We getting like some relatively young players for Yacopu if I'm not mistaken on last year of his deal and then Josh Richardson and I could get James Book Knight. I'm acting like James Book Knight. This is high commodity. He's really not, but he is a guy coming off a rookie season where he didn't really play. And that holds some value. Oh, I think O'John and Obi's more valuable. I legit think O'John and Obi's more valuable than Miles Turner. I guess that's why they're saying that they get a first round pick in it as well. I just, I like O'John and Obi a little bit too much to trade him for Miles Turner personally. Here's another version of the New York Knicks Utah Jazz trade and this one gives you the picks from the recent, like the next couple years. And if I'm the Knicks, I'd rather do this package of picks. 2023, 2023, that's ours. And then the watch that was his pick that's louder to protect it. 2025, 22, that's a lot of picks, but it is, you don't have to worry about 2029 being thrown in there. Q Grimes too. Oh, I don't know cause Q Grimes is in it. I don't know. I watched that way. Q Grimes light it up in summer league. I don't know if I want to trade, bro. The last one is John Collins and Justin Holliday who probably can't get traded to August 30th just like Kevin Herter cause they were literally traded for each other. So why would, okay. Kuzma, Will Bard and Rihachi Mora, that's interesting. Who walks out of this and saying that we did the best we could in this one? I mean, if I'm watching, I'm getting this package. We kind of gave up a lot of them. Now we do still have Denny of D over there which can help on the wing of course Bradley Beal and Monte Morris and Porzingis. That will be okay, I guess. But this is one of those trades that feels like nobody walks out and say that they won. Nobody feels confident that they were successful in making the trade. It is a deal to be done because we needed a deal to be done. And as I'm recording this video, our report has come out. The Jazz are accelerating spite of trade wanting to get the deal done before training camp. So you will see me relatively soon, baby. If that trade goes down, let me know what was your favorite trade, your worst, the worst trade. I'm done talking.
