Mike and I talk about the need to build technologists to fuel the high-tech economy in Ohio.

We discuss some of the projects being created to address these challenges, including my project called Making Software Makers, which is a platform that teaches kids how to build cool things with code.

This is especially important now, when classes may suddenly go from in-person to remote on short notice.
In this episode, we continue our discussion about naming and defining course elements. Last time we discussed naming course content elements - this time we discuss naming activities, assessments, and other course elements that we have learners perform. SoundCloud recordings of Ohio Leads Virtual Summit 2020: https://soundcloud.com/nsccdesign/sets/ohioleads-virtual-summit-2020?ref=clipboard
