Teach, Tech, Lead

Ep20: Damir Odobasic #Teach #Tech

In this episode of the Teach, Tech, Lead podcast, Gus and I spoke to Damir Odobasic - an award-winning Ed Innovator, conference presenter and speaker about how students think, remember and transfer knowledge. In what ways are digital devices and technologies disrupting or changing learning? Is AI any different? Damir has developed a simple (yet robust) Lesson Intelligence Framework, which which discuss in detail. Hope you enjoy it!

Ep19: Ellen Moffat #Teach #Lead

Ellen Moffat is a Deputy Principal, leader and educator who has held a variety of curriculum and pastoral roles in her career. She was on The Educator's Hot List in 2018 and their Rising Stars list in 2023 as well as being an Excellence Awardee at the 2021 Australian Education Awards. What was clear to both Gus and myself in our conversation, was how passionate Ellen is about effective pedagogy, the power of relationships in the classroom and the impact of effective leadership. Hope you enjoy the conversation!

Ep18: One-pager 08 - While I'm Not Watching...

In the latest of our one-pagers, Gus and I discuss While I'm Not Watching... Rather than the title of a bad horror movie, this brand new One-Pager from the #TeachTechLeadPodcast details the positive habits that we want to instill in our students! This pod (and the one-pager linked below), will give you some answers - but likely, many more thoughts about the ways we teach students to work independently! Hope you enjoy!

Ep17: One-Pager 07 - Success Looks Like...

In the latest of our one-pagers, Gus and I discuss Success Looks Like... How can we best convey to students our expectations surrounding a task or activity such that they have the optimal chance of success? This pod (and one-pager linked below), will give you the answer to that question and make it (as Gus likes to say) hard for them "not to learn"! Hope you enjoy!

Ep16: One Pager 06 - You Do This!

In the latest of our one-pagers, Gus and I discuss You Do This! Explicit instruction is a well understood teaching strategy - but what is the best way to get started? This pod (and one-pager linked below), will give you a clear method for delivering instructions to classes of any year level in a way (that Gus likes to say) makes it hard for them "not to learn"! Hope you enjoy!

Ep15: Lisa Cohen #Teach #Lead

Gus and I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Lisa Cohen, who along with Lianne Kady are the founders of Elevated Educators (www.elevatededucators.com.au) and Blooming Classrooms - a researched backed behavior and wellbeing program supporting school teachers to thrive. I quite like the phrase on their website: "from frazzled to flourishing". Lisa and Lianne work to empower educators to feel seen, supported and equipped with real world strategies to manage student behaviour, strengthen classroom culture and stay in the profession they love. Hope you enjoy it!

Ep14: Anneke Stracke #Teach

Gus and I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Anneke Stracke, who has been teaching for 3 years, to talk about the challenges of being a teacher graduate and the ways in which we can better support and attract new teachers. Anneke gave some great insights into the challenges of starting out, things she has learnt along the way and highlights of her teacher training.

Ep13: One Pager 05 - Catch the Volcano!

In the latest of our one-pagers, Gus and I discuss Catching the Volcano! Class discussion can be fun and engaging - but frequently, our students leave our classes without a sense of the main points of what was discussed. At other times, class discussions can wander off topic, leaving us feeling like we dropped the ball. There is an answer! The solution is outlined in this one-pager called ‘Catch the Volcano!’ To get some ideas on how you can implement this, read our one-pager linked below! Hope you enjoy!

Recently, I attended the Digital Learning and Teaching Victoria (DLTV) annual conference (DigiCon) at ACMI in Federation Square, Melbourne.

Featured are: Dr Tim Kitchen (keynote), Joshua Brewer, Andrew Smith - the CEO of VCAA, Nick Morgan from Toddle, Trent Ray from the Cyber Safety Project, Angeline Yannopoulos and Mark Comas. Also - we do name drop you Leon Furze!

Gus and I were thrilled to be joined by Brayden Stone - Principal of Southern Cross Grammar School, to talk about pedagogy, leadership and connecting with students.

Shoutouts this episode to Dr Ray Swann, Mark Dowley, Carmel Fry and Meg Adem!
