Taking a long car trip? Gearing up for a commute after a year without one? This list has you covered.
What I’m listening to…Podcast Edition!
I am, in my bones, a reader. But podcasts have a special place in my heart - and in my commute, my cooking time, my folding-laundry time - as well. Please share your favorites in the comments!
For your listening pleasure, I have a somewhat eclectic list of education-related podcasts that I enjoy. Some I listen to fairly regularly, others I listen when there’s a specific topic or guest of interest. All of them are worth checking out...
Education Policy Weekly is “a show about how all students – regardless of their races, their locations, or their socioeconomic statuses – deserve an educational system that is centered around justice and equity.” (John Phillips)

Teaching in Higher Ed is “a space where we explore the art and science of being more effective at facilitating learning. We also share ways to increase our personal productivity, so we can have more peace in our lives and be even more present for our students.” (Bonni Stachowiak)

Love podcasts- really interested in action, hearing about a great app and how someone uses it in the classroom to engage students.
