In this episode, Mike and Glen discuss discuss the removal of standardized testing from teacher evaluations, and about whether we should be changing the start time of school, and how that may benefit students. We’ll also chat about how a video game may be the key to restoring the Notre Dame cathedral after the incredible fire last week. A new report from EdBuild is out talking about school district segregation. We also have two amazing guests this week: educator, speaker, and author George Couros joins us, and we welcome neuroscientist Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath on the pod to talk about his new book “Stop Talking, Start Influencing”References:Guest: George CourosTwitter: https://twitter.com/gcourosWebsite: https://georgecouros.ca/blog/Buy "The Innovator's Mindset": https://www.amazon.com/The-Innovators-Mindset-Learning-Creativity/dp/0986155497/ref=tmm_pap_title_0Guest: Dr. Jared Cooney HorvathTwitter: https://twitter.com/jchorvathWebsite: https://www.scienceoflearning.com.au/Jared's TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NilvW_ACG9MBuy "Stop Talking, Start Influencing": https://www.amazon.com/dp/1925335909/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_1wqVCbNP21XD5Notes:#ChatOnEducation is a slow chat on Thursdays with questions at 9am, 12pm and 3pm join us to discuss the topics we talk about on this week's podcast.
