Jake Miller is the #EduGIF Guy, a keynote speaker, tech integration specialist, Google for Education Trainer, Nerd, 8th-grade science teacher, and the #EduDuctTape Podcast Host. Educational technology works best when it's not the focus of the learning; it's a tool we're using. Think of it as duct tape; duct tape is the tool we use to make the thing we're using better or solve a problem. Educational technology is a tool we use to solve a problem, meet a goal, or address a standard. The focus is the content or learning goal. Podcasting became Jake's way of sharing more with educators when posting #EduGIFs/resources on Twitter wasn't enough. He wanted to go beyond how to use the tool and share the why and purpose of the tools. Now he sits with the DIS team to discuss all this and more!
