147. Personal and Authentic: Featuring Thomas Murray
After creating and implementing new teaching strategies and building procedures, many educators are seeking to go back to “normal”. Should we keep any practices from this past year or should we go back to our previous strategies? This week’s guest, Thomas Murray, shares how we design learning experiences that impact all students, while creating future ready skills.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Future Ready Leaders
- Future Ready Learners
- Going Back to “Normal” vs Continuing New Practices
- And Tom’s Book, “Personal and Authentic”
