The best professional development is often found in a room down the corridor.
Open Door is a community-driven podcast hosted by Lee Blowers and Chris Galley, that brings educators together from around the world to discuss teaching and learning.
Throughout the month of July, Apple Distinguished Educators from around the globe took part in the ADE Festival of Learning. This four-week event focussed on professional learning, wellness, and community through ADE-hosted sessions, Apple product spotlights, and creativity and wellness challenges.
In this episode, Chris shares his experiences and reflections from the festival with Lee and we are joined by three special guests: Eoin Hughes, Kurt Klynen, and Alicia Bankhofer, who all share their perspectives from the festival.
