4: 'Create engaging content in Swift' with Daniel Budd

I had the pleasure of speaking with Daniel Budd for this episode. Daniel is the Director of Learning Technologies at Corpus Christi College, an Apple Distinguished School in Perth, Western Australia. As an Apple Distinguished Educator, Daniel is actively involved in research projects focussed on STEM education, robotics, information systems, big data and design thinking. Daniel’s career began in Web Development and Design for learning Australian marketing and advertising firms. Daniel and I had an inspiring discussion about teaching Swift and creating engaging learning in Swift.
