EdTech Rewind Episode 11 - Sir Mix A Lot and #MicrosoftEDU




EdTech Rewind show

Summary: Sorry for the later normal drop this week, ladies and gentlemen. Between the combination of illness in the collective Winter/Green households this podcast is going up a little late. That gave the guys enough time to take a look into the latest announcement from #MicrosoftEDU, which happened this past week. Clint and Lee, being two die-hard Google Guys give you their take on the awesomeness. Thank you’s go to #MicrosotEDU and Barb Darrow of Fortune for the inspiration for today’s show. <br><br>As per usual, though, the show starts off with the guys going through their week. Clint was able to go to a retirement dinner for one of his favorite middle school teachers. Clint mentioned doing an 8th Grade Moden Lyrics/Poetry assignment for this teacher and that brought up the traumatic memory of when 13 year old Lee thought it would be a good idea to do the same type of assignment with the Sir Mix A Lot gem, Baby Got Back. The show quickly derailed, but the guys came up with a way to bring it back with a book concept called Mix a Lot of Standards. Guaranteed best seller that will show people how to combine cross curricular standards into Project Based Learning. Surely we can get Sir Mix A Lot on board. <br><br>Show links<br>Microsoft EDU Articles<br>10 Things from Microsoft - <a href="https://news.microsoft.com/features/10-things-know-microsoftedu-event/" rel="noopener">https://news.microsoft.com/features/10-things-know-microsoftedu-event/</a>
