Dads In Ed

We interrupt Game 7 of the World Series to chat with best selling author and Chief Programming Office for EdTech Team, Jennie Magiera. We talk with Jennie about her book, Courageous Edventures; some of the perspective she gets while working for EdTech Team; as well as how she as used social media to connect with others struggling with infertility.

Devin and Josh are live at the ITEC conference, talking about what makes conferences great and what they've been learning. We are joined by 2017 ISTE Making IT Happen Award winner Stacy Behmer, one of the brains behind ITEC. In addition to the behind the scenes peek, she also shares with us how she got to be the #BestAuntEver.
