<p>Join Kathy and Mark for a stirring discussion as they continue to unveil the Teachers Podcast&#8217;s new initiatives for 2010 All of this in Part 2 of 52-53 episodes! We cover the ground of policy, vision and mandates as we debate and stir up the waters with DOE announcements, rumblings on ed tech with Karen Carter and see connections with President Obama&#8217;s community college funding to k-12. From a dynamic discussion of how virtual schools might lead the innovation so much needed in our schools, to sharing the excitement of new 21st century skills guidelines, this episode is action packed as always!
