Welcome to Design Cast episode #6!

Today, I am excited to be live streaming on YouTube from South Korea! I hope you find my discussion helpful!

I talk about the difference between Product and Digital Design and where you can 'teach skills' in an MYP Design Class!

There are a number of ways to get in touch with me. You can email me at [email protected] or call my Google voicemail +1.678.870.6676, I promise that I will not answer. It should go straight to voicemail. If you want to leave me a message that you want played on a future podcast that would be awesome!

I have been using Voxer and really like its ease of use. My Voxer ID is wjreagin and you can leave a walkie-talkie style message. You can also follow me on Twitter @diskon4no.

Or just visit http://gg.gg/designcast to find other way to connect with me. I am looking forward to hearing from you. If you want to send in questions or suggestions about future episodes then please send them along.

Today, I am excited to have Chris Graham from Santiago, Chile; Kim Hogg from Incheon, South Korea and Sean Connors from Hawaii on the episode!

Welcome to Design Cast episode #4!

Today, I am excited to have Kimberly Hogg joining me on the podcast. Kim has been taking things apart and putting them back together since she could hold a screwdriver. Expat since 2002, she believes in trying everything twice. Kim currently teaches MYP Language & Literature at Chadwick International in South Korea and has recently taught MYP Design at Somersfield Academy in Bermuda.

We will be discussing our thoughts and experiences with Criterion C of the MYP Design Cycle. I hope you find our discussion helpful!
