I am privileged to be Zooming with Amy Kangas and her wonderful class of educators who are spending the next week exploring what it means to be a 21st Century Teacher.
While I will just be there to answer questions and share some experiences, here are a few resources that might be useful for our discussion.

Vicki Davis is a Cool Cat Teacher. Actually she is THE Cool Cat Teacher. You may have heard of her blog, CoolCatTeacher.com It is the most visited education blog followed on the planet.
Fortunately I had the opportunity to meet Vicki a few years ago and become good friends over the year. I am in absolute awe of her as a teacher, blogger, educator, motivator and organizer (do you know that she has over 100 people come to her house for Thanksgiving and she LOVES it!!!)
One of Vicki's latest projects is her Every Classroom Matters Podcast through the BAM!RadioNetwork. Vicki uses this podcast to interview a variety of educators from around the world about their areas of passion. These 10-minute interviews range from 21st Century Learning to Financial Literacy to Empowering Students. Fascinating stuff.
A couple of weeks ago, I had the privilege of being interviewed by Mrs. Davis. She asked me some interesting questions about my teaching philosophies and practices. She wanted to know about how I interact with students and what happens in my classes. In listening to the interview, it turns out that she didn't have to ask me too many questions at all because I just kept talking . . .
Anyway, here is the link to the interview. I would suggest that you click on the iTunes link to listen to it.
