My new favourite podcast

Interesting and informed discussion about well-chosen research, with clear criteria applied, reasoned views, and just enough banter to keep it from feeling like a lecture.

Thoughtful and Provocative

I appreciate this group of educators who consistently take time from their busy schedules to thoughtfully review pertinent literature that pushes me to be a better educator. Thank you amigas and amigos!
