Finding Joy in Education - A Convo with Dean Shareski - The #InnovatorsMindset Podcast S1 Ep 43

While this episode of The Innovator's Mindset Podcast opens with a fun debate about the etiquette of wearing pants vs wearing shorts, Dean Shareski and George Couros dig into deeper and more meaningful topics within education - like how to find joy in education in any learning environment. Dean's Twitter bio is a fitting description of this episode: "Working daily to reduce my ignorance. Concurrently trying to identify and linger in delight." In this episode, you will learn more about how Dean is creating hope and joy for all learners and how he answers George's question about how we can help people feel valued. Dean also shares a strategy that he uses to better understand how educators feel validated.
