12. Staying Current: "Practical Development"

The Bolt Podcast ·

2019/11/22

We wanted to call this episode "Professional Development", but thought that may scare some people off. Our guests today talk to Conor and Trey about what works and what doesn't work for them in training sessions, and why the phrase "practical development" may be more appropriate. Plus, why are teachers not necessarily the best students?

Plus, you'll never guess which of our hosts may still need help tying a necktie. (Actually, that one's pretty easy.)
