Hello, and welcome to Episode 119 of the Planning Period Podcast, part of the OnPodcastMedia Network. I'm your host, Brad Shreffler.



This week on the show I am joined by Blair Mishleu and Jon Spike. Blair and Jon are both specialists with digital and distance learning. I reached out to them and asked if they would like to join me to discuss the face of education now and what this could mean for the future of the education space.


Jon, Blair, and I talk about the differences between blended models and fully online/distance learning, the importance of letting go of time in online learning, building community in online learning, how to balance the amount of work you give to students now, why all teachers need to give themselves some space to fail, what the elimination of standardized tests means in the future, and how online learning could take over if districts don’t prepare.


So, sit back and enjoy Episode 119 of the Planning Period Podcast, the Distance Learning Panel.
