Listen Now

A few weeks ago I wrote a blog post called "If it ain't broke, break it".  In the post, I discuss how I fundamentally changed the way I am teaching.  In this episode of the teachable podcast, I bring in my students to talk about how they are finding the change.  So not only do you get to hear from me but you get to hear from them about what they like and dislike about the new format. People you should be following:Jesse StommelSean Michael MorrisRajiv JhangianiAudrey WattersClint Lalonde If you have any ideas or just want to talk all things OER please reach out to me at chad@theelectricacademy.com

I tried something new this past week.  Collaborative quizzing!  It was amazing!  In this episode, I discuss what I did and why I did it.  Did the students like it?  Listen to find out.

In this episode, I reflect on the issue of using technology for technologies sake. Our number one concern should be our students and technology should be a tool to help enhance their learning experience.
