Modeling the Use of Social Media For Professional Learning

Check Out Our Newly Branded Podcast Series: Get Schooled
These are just a sampling of the podcasts that we've created for Get Schooled- The Penn Ed Equity Podcast. If you of your colleagues weren't able to attend the workshop these brief (approx. 10 minutes or less) podcasts will act as a jumping off point for the content we explored. You can also use these podcasts as conversation starters at your next faculty meeting and share them with your friends and colleagues. Stay tuned for more podcasts coming soon!
