Gettin' Air with Heather Tillberg-Webb and Stephanie Moore. Heather & Stephanie join the show to discuss their new book Ethics and Educational Technology which walks readers through a sorely (until now) missing process of reflection (of our current practices), interrogation (of educational technologies) and ethical design. It is, as Bonni Stachowiak put it, a magnificent work.

Gettin' Air wth Dr Bea de los Arcos. This is a long overdue chat with legendary open educator Dr. Bea de los Arcos. Bea has worked in Open education for many years. Her journey has taken her from her home counrty of Spain, to the Open University (UK) and now the TU Delft in the Netherlands. Any joyful enthusiasm for open education that exists in the world can all likely be tracked back to Bea. There is no research to back that claim up but it rings true.

Gettin' Air with Dr. Fiona Rawle. Dr. Rawle professes biology at the University of Toronto - Mississauga. Her research focuses on science education and public understanding of science. In this episode we chat about how she has focused on humanizing learning, including researching the benefits of failure in our learny journeys. Something I do all the time!

Gettin' Air with Stephen Hurley. A long overdue conversation with the architect behind the VoicEd Radio universe!
