Episode 12: Be on Top of Copyright, Fair Use, Creative Commons, and Public Domain in your Classroom
We can, in our classroom, make this a customary practice and develop a conscientiousness in our students about copyright, intellectual property, and checking licenses of media to make sure we can use them in our instruction, student learning, and their assessment. Teaching Copyright, Fair Use, Creative Commons, and Public Domain in the 21st century when our society and education institutions are laden with media should have the utmost importance for teachers in teaching our students how to share and use media in their education and personal lives.

Episode 10: Why is student engagement the powerhouse to student learning?
On both my blog and podcast, I write and speak about student engagement in the classroom. The reason why I put so much emphasis into student engagement?

It’s a given. In today’s episode I’m going to share why student engagement is a powerhouse to student learning and why it makes sense to invest time that is intentional to building and encouraging student engagement in our classroom.
