Episode 037: Jennifer Gonzalez, Cult of Pedagogy It’s not a real cult.

Many times it’s pushed our thinking, strengthened our practice, and given us solace. It’s the Cult of Pedagogy, and we had the privilege of speaking to the “Head Teacher Nerd”, Jennifer Gonzalez, about school culture and much much more. Connect with Jennifer Gonzalez Website:
