Video as a Basic Literacy - A Convo with Clement Townsend - The #InnovatorsMindset Podcast S2 EP27

What is literacy in 2021? Clement Townsend answers this opening question asked by George Couros and shares more about what he is doing with media - specifically video - and how that embodies some of the ideas shared in The Innovator’s Mindset and Innovate Inside the Box. Townsend shares some amazing ways to integrate skills and concepts into the classroom and, more specifically, into media, video creation, and editing. “We can change the way that we teach students basic skills (in a way) that is more relevant and relatable but also has benefits that they can utilize in their everyday life.” Townsend shares some amazing ways to make sure that integrating video is not just an add-on but truly integrated into the classroom curriculum in ways that are meaningful to the learners.
