Podcast Reflection #9: Plan Less, Do More

I found this podcast on K12Online.  I actually downloaded their entire play list on my itunes.  The main point of this podcast is bringing real change to your school.  It is about cultivating change in the school through student engagement.  Most teachers spend so much time planning, that they never really connect with their students.  Teachers need to do more, and plan less.. (hence the title). I really enjoyed this podcast because the speaker was so passionate about working with children.  He wanted to make sure students connected with not only him, but with the content they were learning.  He really wants to integrate technology into the curriculum.  He makes sure that when he does plan, there is always technology available to the students.  Supporting, Leading, and Coaching are important agents for change.  There are so many insightful ideas and methods shared in the podcast.
