Every week, Steve Hargadon and I sit down (virtually) to talk about the latest ed-tech news. Apologies (once again!) for the quality of this recording. This time, it's the fault of Google Voice and Verizon -- the former is responsible for no Internet at Steve's location; the latter for the poor sound quality of our conversation. Ah, technology.
This week, Steve and I discuss what educators should know about Silicon Valley, as well as my continuing struggles to fit the square peg of Hack Education into the round hole of Ed Startup 101. That particular discussion has prompted Steve to write about this over on his own blog too: "Reframing Ed-Tech Ventures: From the 'Pain Test' to 'Value.'"
