Do you thrill to the possibilities represented by new technologies that offer students access to the vast library of all human learning to help them build new understandings and new creations? Or do you flashback to awkward lectures on zoom with blank screens? And are our technology tools opening doors to a bright future for our students, or are our technologies rewiring our children’s brains and making them depressed? All of this and Artificial Intelligence on this week’s episode of Education for Love and Wisdom, featuring Orange County Teacher of the Year Glen Warren and Professor Joanne Van Boxtel.

We’re not meant to do teaching alone. We need friends and colleagues who share the work and the sense of mission. Renee Rose and Becky Spady, our guests on this episode of Education for Love and Wisdom, exemplify that kind of friendship. And so do their topics, which depend on each other like friends do. Instructional strategies and assessments, if they support each other, can bring learning to life. Join us!The Education for Love & Wisdom Podcast is sponsored by Vanguard

Celebration! Do you remember a classroom where learning was celebrated? Not so much because you got an A, but because you tried something really hard, because you took on a challenge and made progress, because you learned something even though your experiment “failed.” There’s always something to celebrate. And celebration is one of the keys to creating a classroom environment that helps students to flourish.

In this episode of Education for Love and Wisdom, author Renee Rose shares celebration and lots of other ideas for creating positive learning environments. Join us!The Education for Love & Wisdom Podcast is sponsored by Vanguard
