What's the Big Idea?

School is starting again...so what have we learned?


Listen Later

In which Dan asks a bunch of really smart educators, "What have the past two+ years taught us?" We're entering another school year of pandemic teaching and learning, so what do we have to show for it? Forget the think pieces online and the ranting at local school board meetings; what can these innovative teachers tell us about where education has (and hasn't) gone since March 2020? As always, I welcome comments and questions on Twitter and Instagram @BigIdeaEd
