The Edtech Minute
The One Word movement is a concept that encourages people to focus their year around one singular word to focus their growth and learning around, instead of having a list of lofty resolutions. My #oneword2019 is positivity.
You can read about last year's word focus in this blog post.

What I'm Learning
Without Fail is a new podcast by Gimlet Media CEO Alex Blumberg where he tries to become a better leader by interviewing people who have had great successes and failures in business and learned from all of them. In November 2018, he interviewed entrepreneur Evan Markwell in an episode called “Relentless: How one guy brought the Internet to America’s schools”. This is a really interesting 40 minute conversation where Alex and Evan discuss how Evan helped to re-shape E-Rate funding and make it easier for schools to get access to high quality Internet access for students. This is an amazing conversation about the side of edtech many educators don’t have to think about and a great story about persevering to achieve a goal. You can check out this episode here.

I have seen your list, and I became excited to see what you have to offer! I know that all of these presentations that you have to make will be different form the presentations that you made last year. Right now, I wish nothing but the best for JP's Upcoming Conference Presentations. I can just imagine how hard it will be to have a conference presentation. Perhaps, it is because I have experienced that too that's why I know the feeling of hardship whenever I think of it.
