019: Trevor Muir | Thriving Relationships in Virtual Education
On today’s episode, Kevin interviews Trevor Muir. Trevor believes every student is a dynamic character with a potential for greatness. And he believes educators hold the key to unlocking that potential by building relationships and crafting learning experiences that are engaging and transformative.
That's why he teaches students with project based learning. It’s why he gives keynotes, workshops, and writes about my work in the classroom and how effective authentic education can be. It’s the reason he presented a TED talk at Tedx San Antonio called "School Should Take Place in the Real World," and writes for publications like EdWeek, The Huffington Post, and WeAreTeachers.
