Ed Tech @XaverianHS

I've listened to all of these podcasts and it has been an interesting and thought-provoking ride. The hosts are engaging and use accessible language in explaining technology and its growing presence in the field of education. I highly recommend these podcasts to anyone interested in this area.

I really enjoy listening to your podcast. Kudos to Mr. Fogarty on becoming an apple certified educator, what a great accomplishment. As a student of the Genesis/Xaverian family I applaud your Podcast on being both informative and entertaining.

I've listened to all the episodes so far, and you guys have made great progress. The shorter, more structured format is key to my appreciation of the podcast... One suggestion would be to try to stay away from lesser-known techie acronyms, or just explain them before usage. The cohost "bromance" works well to keep listeners entertained, but I actually find the segments where Dcn. Mac and Patrick Fogarty disagree to be most interesting. One question I'd like answered in an upcoming episode: why do you guys hate on email so much? Specifics please! Overall, a great distraction during my commute and I highly recommend! Because of you guys, I've tried Evernote and absolutely love it. It would be awesome if you dedicated a minute or two each week to an "App of the Week" or something like that to let listeners know about new/exciting stuff out there.

Folks, the 21st Century is sitting in the desks in front of us and they come with the world in their pockets and backpack. We, as teachers, must take advantage of the technology our students carry. Flipping the classroom is a challenge and can make the most veteran teacher’s knees buckle. The strategies that Mr. Fogarty and Deacon McCormack discuss really do work! For example, Box and Evernote are a life saver for any teacher who has left their flash drive at home.
