The New Type of "10 Year Plan" for Education - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S3 EP35

George Couros starts this episode out with an announcement about how this is his last podcast being recorded in this room! This episode is a bit of a switch-up because, instead of blogging about something then recording a podcast, Couros is first recording his thoughts before the blog post is written. This think-aloud episode gives insight into Couros’ thoughts on two ideas - the ten-year plans in education and how to help learners see value in the content they are learning.
