MIKE PAUL is a middle school math teacher, edtech leader, Google Certified Innovator, and the co-founder of Edcamp Kentucky. Follow Mike on Twitter @mikepaul and check out his blog at https://pikemalltech.com/.

In our conversation, Mike recalls the disappointment he felt when he first realized that not every education leader is in education for the right reasons. He gets into the ways that tech tools have changed the ways students learn (and the ways educators teach) about Math. He also discusses what energizes him in education today, his One Word for 2019, a productivity hack he applies to his mornings, and the voices and influences that most inspire his work.
