Talks & Workshops

I love spreading educational hacking! I speak at conferences around the world, and create one-time workshops and lectures, as well as educational series, according to need and context.

Here are some topics that I’ve recently covered:

Educate like a Hacker

What are the habits and characteristics of teachers who hack their pedagogy? What can schools do to help those teachers succeed and how it relates to risk-taking collaboration and resources?
