E19: Building Technologists - Tech Opportunities for Rural Schools
37m · PublishedMike and I talk about the need to build technologists to fuel the high-tech economy in Ohio. The demand for technologists is growing, but many of the kids in our K-12 school districts are being left behind because their schools struggle to either find funding or to find qualified faculty for tech training programs. We discuss some of the projects being created to address these challenges, including my project called Making Software Makers, which is a platform that teaches kids how to build cool things with code.

E14: Guidance
40m · PublishedAfter a rather long hiatus we discuss feedback and guidance in the classroom and how guidance is really at the heart of what we do as teachers.
E13: Engagement
28m · PublishedIn this episode, we discuss the concept of engagement in the classroom. It is very difficult for participants in a class to learn if they are not engaged with the topics and material. That said, there is a lot of confusion about exactly what engagement is and how to engage students. We try to shed some light on this important topic.
E12: Socialization

Socialization leads to interactions between students and the formation of relationships but these things don’t just happen on their own - they must be encouraged. This is especially important now, when classes may suddenly go from in-person to remote on short notice.
E11: Naming Things Part 2
42m · PublishedIn this episode, we continue our discussion about naming and defining course elements. Last time we discussed naming course content elements - this time we discuss naming activities, assessments, and other course elements that we have learners perform.
