Using the CCI as a leading indicator, technical analysts may use a +100 reading as an overbought signal and a -100 reading as an oversold indicator, suggesting a trend reversal.

The RSI, or Relative Strength Index, is a widely used technical momentum indicator that compares price movement over time. The RSI was created by J. Welles Wilder who was striving to measure whether or not a stock was overbought or oversold. The RSI may be useful for spotting abnormal price activity and volatility. The RSI oscillates on a scale from 0 to 100. The normal reading of a stock will fall in the range of 30 to 70. A reading over 70 would indicate that the stock is overbought, and possibly overvalued. A reading under 30 may indicate that the stock is oversold, and possibly undervalued.

Stanford Radio on SiriusXM features ‘living room conversations’ with faculty – Stanford University News

Posted on by

By Kathleen J. Sullivan

In a pilot venture with SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Stanford is launching two talk programs hosted by faculty members: The Future of Everything, focused on engineering, science and technology, and Schools In, focused on teaching, learning and education.

Offering a singular experience for listeners, the one-hour programs invite a global audience to listen in as Stanfords finest researchers and scholars tell stories, talk about research ideas and share insights from their latest scholarship.

The programs, which are designed as living room conversations aimed at a general audience, will begin broadcasting this month.

We are excited to bring Stanford expertise, discovery and high-quality talk radio content to the entire nation on SiriusXM, said Lisa Lapin, vice president for university communications. Satellite radio will deliver Stanford directly to people not familiar with the depth of scholarship here, with compelling topics to help them better understand our contributions to society. And our faculty guarantee fun listening.

The programs will air at 11 a.m. (Eastern Time) on alternating Saturdays, and will be replayed at noon (Eastern Time) the following day.

The host of The Future of Everything is Russ B. Altman, a professor of bioengineering, which is a joint department in the schools of Engineering and Medicine. Altman is also a professor of medicine, genetics and biomedical data science. The program will explore how the research and technological advances of today will lead to the innovations of tomorrow. The first episode will air Feb. 11 and replay on Feb. 12.

The hosts of Schools In are Dan Schwartz, dean of Stanford Graduate School of Education, and Denise Pope, a senior lecturer at the school. The program will explore the ever-changing ways kids are learning, both in and out of school, and the latest research findings on learning and classroom trends. The first episode will air Feb. 18 and replay on Feb. 19.

Each Stanford Radio on SiriusXM program will feature two 30-minute segments. The hosts will introduce each segment in short monologues, and then engage the guests in 20-minute conversations. From time to time, the hosts will interview guests from industry and the public sector.

The programs will be broadcast on SiriusXM Insight, channel 121, which is devoted to informative and entertaining talk programs, including The New Yorker Radio Hour, Snap Judgment and Star Talk with Neil deGrasse Tyson.

People with subscriptions to SiriusXM Radio can listen to the Stanford programs in their cars, and streaming on their phones, tablets and computers. After the episodes air on SiriusXM, they will be available for free on a new Stanford Radio website.

Altman said he has long admired scientists who made science accessible to the public, such as Carl Sagan, an American astronomer who presented the 1980 television series, Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, which attracted a worldwide audience. Altman described his 25-year teaching career as his biggest warm-up for The Future of Everything.

I think that public understanding of engineering and science is incredibly important, both to continue getting support for these fields, but also to inform people as they make decisions about lots of issues that are confronting our world today, he said.

In teaching, you get a really good sense of timing and of wrapping up ideas so theyre understandable by relative novices. Over the years Ive learned that Im comfortable making scientific ideas accessible inside and outside the classroom.

Tom Kenny, interim dean at the School of Engineering, said that as the school developed the programming, one of its priorities was to showcase the interdisciplinary nature of engineering.

We know that the best ideas usually come from bringing together individuals from a variety of backgrounds, Kenny said. So, in addition to increasing global understanding of engineering and science, it is important to ensure we are casting a wide net, and identifying and sharing research and ideas from throughout Stanford and beyond.

The guest list for Altmans first two episodes reflects his wide-ranging interest in engineering, science and technology:

Schwartz, co-author of The ABCs of How We Learn: 26 Scientifically Proven Approaches, How They Work and When to Use Them, said he and Pope will offer listeners ideas they can act on for issues ranging from homework to video games to cheating.

We want people to feel empowered by what theyre hearing, said Schwartz, a professor of education and an expert on human learning.

At the Graduate School of Education, our mission is to create the opportunity and means for all people to learn and teach well. I think that applies on the radio too. Everyones a teacher, to some extent, and everyones a learner. We want to give people the right vocabulary, research and confidence so they can advocate for their own education or that of their kids, neighbors and friends.

He said their conversations will be lively, since the co-hosts dont always agree and will press each other on challenging points.

In addition to talking about research and trends, Pope and Schwartz and their guests will share stories from their own lives as parents and teachers. Before coming to Stanford, Pope taught high school English. Schwartz taught in schools in Los Angeles, Alaska and Kenya.

Pope has experience translating research for a broad audience as a co-founder of Challenge Success, which provides families and schools with the practical, research-based tools they need to create a more balanced and academically fulfilling life for kids. She said Schools In will be an extension of that work.

I hope we can help parents, teachers and any listeners get excited about new discoveries in the field of education, Pope said.

When many people think about education, they think back to how they were taught sitting at desks, listening to lectures and taking tests. So much has changed in the last couple of decades. For instance, it may seem counterintuitive, but research has shown that getting up and walking around can improve creativity. We hope to bring that kind of information to the public.

Among the guests Schwartz and Pope have interviewed for their first two episodes:
