In this episode, Laura has a chat with Martin about the creation of the 25 Years of Ed Tech. From a blog post series to exploring each year in more depth to now -- the book is born! 

We discuss how the chapters came about, the introduction chapter, and take a sneak peek behind the scenes for the writing process. In talking about the history of ed tech, Martin has offered a few themes and issues from his perspective that he hopes the larger community of teaching and learning continues to draw from, add to, or even fill in the gaps. We discuss the history of ed tech shared in the book, and what it means for our pivot to online learning now.
