    PS63: The Creative Classroom with John Spencer

    PS63: The Creative Classroom with John Spencer

    On this episode of the show, I connect with John Spencer, co-author of the book Launch.  If you want to get your students using more design thinking and creating more I highly recommend you check out his book.  He also is the host of the podcast The Creative Classroom and his websites is spencerauthor.com.  Not only does John create great blog posts, but he’s also excellent at creating dynamic videos, which you can catch at spencervideos.com.  We talk about his experience in the classroom, the importance of journalism in school, and one of my favorite topics, higher ed.  We also discuss the Global Day of Design, which is taking place on May 2.  You can join in at globaldayofdesign.com.

    PS62: David Geurin's SWAT Team & Barrage of Positive Tweets

    On this episode I connect with Missouri School Leader and NASSP 2017 Digital Principal of the Year David Geurin.  Among other things, he shares about his epic SWAT team at Bolivar High School who are armed with technical knowledge, not weaponry.  I also really enjoyed his story about a barrage of positive tweets he unleashed recently.  You can find him on Twitter @DavidGeurin and his excellent blog is at davidgeurin.com.

Great guests and great content

Jason does an excellent job of bringing the “meat” of the podcast to the table early. You won’t have to listen to 30 minutes of the guest’s background, and I appreciate that about his podcast. It’s not that I don’t want to know the person better, but I’d rather hear them share something that can benefit me in my practice. Give this podcast a try if you’re a sponge like me trying to soak up what can better outcomes for your students.

Inspirational and motivating

As a new administrator I really appreciate this awesome resource. Jason does a great job of getting a variety of guests that each bring a unique perspective. I look forward to each new show and would recommend it to any current or aspiring administrators.

If you're an educator...

This is a great podcast to listen to. Jason does a fantastic job "booking" his guests and his questions are on point to what you're thinking as you're listening. The conversation is fluid and never forced. Nice job Jason... Cheers!
