Description

In this episode, Mike and Glen talk about what it means to fail, for teachers and students. We tell some stories of our worst failures in the classroom and how important it is to reflect and learn from mistakes. We need to remind our student that it is OK to fail, and there is no better way to teach that than to be an example. We also spend time with games-based learning leader Noah Geisel talking about the upcoming Badge Summit in Chicago, coding and world languages and the Chrome extension he works with, Stackup.References:Noah's Medium post on not counting coding languages as world language credit: https://medium.com/@SenorG/substituting-computer-science-for-world-languages-is-bad-policy-bae3139c0d31Stackup Chrome Extension: www.stackup.netToday's podcast is brought to you by:Audible: go to http://audibletrial.com/oneducation to signup for a free trial from Audible and receive a free audiobook!Badge Summit: To learn more about the 2018 Badge Summit in Chicago this summer, visit bit.ly/badgesummit

OnEducation is here to help. We have honest conversations about teachers, teaching, and everything in between. It's time we talked, and we're hoping you will join the conversation.Meet Mike and Glen. We're educators. We've been everywhere you've been. Mike is Canadian, Glen is American. We cover all the bases. This isn't your normal teacher conversation, this is the staff room (the good ones). We are real, honest (sometimes brutally) and we are hoping, informative. We don't dodge the "tough stuff". Join us as we talk to world-class educators, and tell you what's new.This is OnEducation. We're glad you're here. Let's roll.
