Episode takeaways
Keep learning something new all the time

Failing forward - it's OK to show that you are NOT perfect - no one is perfect. Keep learning from your mistakes and reflect upon them.
Select a tech tool based on the learning outcome for your students.
Most of the time you spend on a tool is on the front end - getting used to it and how to use it.
Make connections with content and students' everyday lives as much as possible.
Learn with your students!
