So we just completed our very first Podcast Interview with a learning leader! Thank you to Mark Beddes, our principal at Surprise Lake Middle School…and his willingness to throw his learning out there for one and all to consider. It’s a pleasure learning and leading along side of him.
We’d welcome feedback on this podcast!
One of our goals, is to ask the same 3 questions of learning leaders around the USA and beyond. We first need to figure out how to record an interview on the phone, but that’s a neat learning opportunity. If anyone has experience or a suggestion along those lines, please fire away!
