Technology For Mindfulness show

Summary: <p>In episode 56, Teru Clavel—author, speaker, and global mom—joins us for a discussion about world-class education for kids and the role that technology plays in the classroom. Together, we discuss the difference between learning with and without computers, tablets, and other forms of technology, and how that affects kids’ retention rates. </p><br><p>Teru Clavel’s upcoming book <em>World Class</em> which is set for release on August 20, is a mix of a memoir, research, and takeaways. In this book, she takes us on the journey of raising her kids in 3 different countries. She explains how every education system (and it’s technology use) is very different based on its history and culture. What’s most important is that we all learn from one another, and grow in ways that will benefit kids in the school system. </p><br><p><strong>Resources: </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.teruclavel.com/" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s Website</a></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/World-Class-Mothers-Education-Children-ebook/dp/B07P56J7Y5" target="_blank"><em>World Class </em>by Teru Clavel</a> - out August 20th</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/TeruClavel?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s Twitter</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TeruClavelWriter/" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s Facebook Page</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/teruclavel/" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s Instagram</a></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/teruclavel/" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s LinkedIn</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnEP-sxBOL6d2DFSNAnPIKw" target="_blank">Teru Clavel’s YouTube Channel</a></p><br><p><strong>Some Questions I Ask: </strong></p><ul> <li>What have you learned from kids around the world?
