Education
Today’s episode of the Making After-School Cool Podcast focuses on current issues appearing in education. As Educational practices continue to evolve, there remains the question of “are the methods we now use to educate our youth keeping pace with the educational evolution?” Research has shown that when students actively participate in lessons, they are more engaged and their academic performance increase. To discuss a few of these issues is my guest, Miriam Plotinsky.
During this podcast you will learn the following:
