Brian Heisey: Customized vs Personalized Learning - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S4 EP2

“If we only teach students the curriculum, we have failed them.” - George Couros, The Innovator’s Mindset This quote is shared at the beginning of this episode and connects to the ideas shared by Brian Heisey in this episode of The Innovator’s Mindset Podcast. Heisey reflects on the skills that he teaches the kids in his class and shares how he gets his students interested in learning. The idea of taking learning beyond the classroom is shared throughout this entire episode as Heisey shares how he involves music, specifically rap, into his lessons. Heisey also shares an important reminder about what happens when you integrate rap into your lessons! Quotes: "Even if you don't like my subject, I want to teach you to arm yourself with that toolkit of strategies so that when you leave my room, you will be able to apply your learning." - Brian Heisey Links: Brian Heisey Twitter - https://twitter.com/bheisey Brian Heisey YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/81biorocks?app=desktop DNA Just Replicate - https://youtu.be/3RNo7kAUJdA Please share your thoughts with us on Twitter or Instagram at #InnovatorsMindset.
