By Shannon Schinkel
The podcast currently has 24 episodes available.
I’m excited to introduce 'Messy Minutes: Assessment Edition,' dropping every Friday.
These micro episodes will be short, to the point, and all me—no guests. We’re talking 5-10 minutes nuggets where I’ll share my favorite assessment strategies, break down some of that tricky assessment stuff, answer a burning question a listener emails me, or maybe just give an exceptionally long shoutout to other podcasts that have helped me on my journey. It’s all about embracing the messy side of assessment, and trust me, it can get messy.
In this episode, Shannon talks with George Couros, speaker and author of The Innovator’s Mindset, Because of a Teacher and What Makes a Great Principal. George worked at all school levels, from K-12 as a teacher, technology facilitator, and school and district administrator, and is currently an Adjunct Instructor with the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania. He is also the podcast host of the Innovator's Mindset Podcast.

Check out my FIVE STAR REVIEW of Tyler's book:
Hacking Student Motivation by Tyler Rablin offers a refreshing perspective on education, challenging traditional grading systems and advocating for a shift towards meaningful learning experiences. Rablin highlights the pitfalls of solely focusing on grades, arguing that it sets students up for failure and undermines their intrinsic motivation to learn. Instead, he proposes practical strategies for educators to design informative grade books and create learning progressions that prioritize skill development over task completion.
