In this episode Mike and Glen debate whether virtual conferences are worth your time, we will give you our takeaways and reflections from distance learning thus far and our guest this week is educator and author Matt Miller.Guest: Matt MillerWe like Matt A LOT. He works hard, and you can tell everything he does is in service of helping teachers be the best they can be. We took him on a roller coaster of an interview this time. We asked him to weigh in on his favorite tech tools and we chatted about his new book. We also asked him about his thoughts on the "educelebrity" label and, as expected, his response was thoughtful and personal.
