In episode two of Design and Play, Dean and I discuss the hype surrounding modern learning environments. This is a conversation that sparks more questions than answers but is the start of a deep dialogue into their effectiveness. We talk about all things AGILE and share our experiences of witnessing corporate agile teams in action. Can schools learn from these methodologies? We think so. Inspired by Graham Martin-Brown, we also talk Jedis and Stormtroopers and how we need to develop and support the EdTech Rebel Alliance. No more bland technology please!
