If it seems like this entire link roundup is a list of podcast episodes, you're right. These last few weeks, I have found myself on-the-run all the time, which means I haven't had much time to sit down and read. Lucky for me, podcasts are hands-free and flexible, so I can keep learning, even when I'm on the go! Check out some of my favorite March listens on this month's Link Roundup! Ten Minute Teacher: 5 Ideas for Writing with Technology Vicki Davis's podcast is one of my favorites because it's a quick listen, and I always have great nuggets to take away. I can listen to one of her episodes in the time it takes for me to get from my daughter's school to either of mine, which means I can learn something every day! What I love most about this episode is not about the technology tools and digital learning strategies that interviewee Meg Ormiston shares, but that her focus is on learning first. She talks about the 5 Cs (Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Creativity, Communication, and Computational Thinking), and then shares her strategies through the lens of one or more C. CISD Digital Learning: Apple a Week Did you know that the team of Digital Learning Coaches in CISD has a podcast? Led by Trisha Goins and Alli Pryor, follow along as we have explored why Apple in education. Though the series have officially come to a close, stay tuned! We will be bringing more content and new topics your way in upcoming episodes. How I Built This: Patagonia - Yvon Chouinard Guy Raz interviews entrepreneurs in his podcast, and even though he doesn't specifically deal in education, there is so much to learn from our visionary business magnates. In this episode, Raz interviews Yvon Chouinard, founder of popular sportswear brand Patagonia. The reason I love this particular episode so much is because Chouinard speaks to the spirit we instill in our learners today - we want our learners and young people to find problems in the world, and then envision and build solutions. I never intended to start a business. It's just - I just have this knack that every time I look at a product, I look at it and I think, you know, I can make something better than that. It could be better. Want to hear more? Check out the Resources tab to see a longer list of my favorite podcasts!
