Breakout Learning with Adam Bellow

In this episode, educational technologist Adam Bellow, Co-Founder of Breakout EDU, reflects on his success as an “Edupreneur” with numerous start-up companies and shares his thoughts as to why educators today must place a greater emphasis on pedagogy over new technology tools. As a member of the EdCamp Foundation Board of Directors, Bellow also talks about being a strong advocate for professional development that provides choice and “hands on” learning opportunities related to emerging technologies. Finally, Bellow provides sound advice for school leaders looking to invest in technology within the confines of limited school budgets. Twitter: @adambellow. Website: www.breakoutEDU.com.
