Our guest this week is Adobe’s Head of Global Education Programs Tacy Trowbridge.  Guest: Tacy Trowbridge Tacy and her team at Adobe Education have been absolutely crushing it the last few years. 10 years ago if you had to come up with a list of top K-8 or K-12 resources, nothing from Adobe would have come up. NOW? Adobe Spark tools are must have's and the Adobe Educator Exchange has over 800,000 members. We had a great chat with Tacy about Adobe, her team, and this roll they've been on.

In this episode Mike and Glen dive into experts predictions of what next fall could look like, debate, whether we should be worried about giant hornets & aliens and our guest this week is author Eric Kalenze.  Guest: Eric Kalenze There are a lot of lessons throughout this whole podcast episode that tie into each other but the overwhelming sense is that we're living through a time where you can't just take someone else's work, or ideas, or plans, and use them in your school or district and expect success. Eric's book "What The Academy Taught Us" is his story of what they did to help students who were on the verge of leaving school entirely, before it was too late. It may not be the solution for everyone, but we're convinced the ideas in the book will work for a lot of people. **Note: We had some issues cleaning up Eric's audio quality, normally we can overcome the discrepancy between the quality of our audio and our guests, but keep in mind it is completely out of our control.** Eric on Twitter:
