Season 2, Episode 3: Control Enthusiast

In Episode 3 Brianne and I chat with Dr. Catherine Atkinson,  a middle school history teacher and expert in technology integration. We had a great conversation about how she builds connection and community and how those relationships contribute to the great work they do together in and outside of the classroom. Catherine shares all sorts of tips and strategies to cultivate a sense of belonging in virtual and face-to-face classrooms and reminds of the importance of laughter and levity even when things feel difficult and worrisome. Enjoy the show!
