These days, we have so many competing priorities, that it is often difficult to find the time to read. Some days I don't even feel I have the time to read a tweet! let alone keep up with the latest research in education. One way I'm managing to do this, and keep up with learning about things I'm interested in amongst everything I do, is to listen to a podcast while on my weekly walk (yes, I know, I should exercise at least 3x per week... I'm working on that one). The drive to school is also a good time for this (unless you have energetic kids in the car). I'll also freely admit, that sometimes the thought of professional reading tends to wake up my inner "procrastination monkey" who will find that very moment to suggest something much more "easy and fun" to do. I've found podcasts are a great way for me to placate the "panic monster", while still enjoying other more mundane and leisurely activities, like going for a walk or doing the dishes. *Check out the above video of Tim Urban's TED Talk, "Inside the mind of a procrastinator". (No prizes for guessing how I came across this video!) My favourites...The podcasts below are a small selection of ones that I personally find very interesting, informative, and often amusing. I encourage you to check them out.
