Imagine getting your dream job. Now imagine, getting an email from your boss asking to meet when you get back. Finally, imagine your boss telling you that your contract is not going to be renewed. In this episode, I am going to talk to ISTE 2019 keynote speaker, Alicia Duell about this story - her story. Co-hosting with me on this episode is Deb Lawlor. Deb teaches vulnerability and empathy in her health classes. I will talk with her about that and we will talk with Alicia together.

This episode is going to be part 1 of a 3 part series on learning HOW to fail. In the next episode Deb and i wil talk with high school kids about failure, and the third episode will visit the elementary school. If you have any feedback about this or any episode, please visit the FlipGrid, or you can email or tweet me. Todd Bedard: [email protected] or @tb2boyz
