- Timely and Needed Now More than Ever!
Lorraine here listening in from Brussels, Belgium! This podcast series is great! Extremely important, timely, and useful topics for anyone working with K-12 aged students. Jeff has a knack for breaking down seemingly complex and sometimes controversial questions about tech and learning in the 21st century and making them digestible for laypersons. The guests are always extremely knowledgeable, making the conversations even the more better!

This podcast is a valuable resource for anyone in education, including teachers, administrators, and curriculum designers, etc. The content is fantastic, with insightful interviews and resources in a rapidly evolving space. Personally, it's been especially helpful for me as I recently transitioned from the classroom in California to working remotely in France, navigating the shift to edtech. Highly recommended for those seeking quality insights in the intersection of AI and the education field.
