Are you a teacher or administrator looking to transform your classroom into an engaging, active classroom?

This week on the Teacher Edition podcast, Jenny connects with Brandon Risinger, a friend, fellow educator and dedicated principal to share a common passion of developing teaching strategies where students are actively learning and engaged.

Listen in as they discuss these key topics:
