Planning Period Podcast
Conversations from the #EdBreakRoom
Planning Period Podcast features Instructional Technology Coach Brad Shreffler interviewing teachers and other school stakeholders. As a podcaster, he is focused on making a guest-centered education podcast, not necessarily talking to experts in any field, or focusing the discussions on one topic, but instead having a natural, comfortable conversation with a teacher and seeing where that discussion takes them. #EdBreakroom
