LinkedUp: Breaking Boundaries in Education

Kasey Bell, the founder of Shake Up Learning talks with Jerri and Jamie about the 5 shifts we need in education now: 1. View this crisis as an opportunity 2. Stop trying to replicate traditional school day online 3. Recognize that every student doesn’t have to do the same thing at the exact same time. 4. Recognize that seat time does not equal learning and 5. Let go of the lock-down mindset.  Kasey talks about these changes and more in this lively podcast.
