S2:E1 Growing the #InnovatorsMindset with @gcouros

Join us for this very special episode where we interview George Couros (@gcouros) about promoting the innovator's mindset and #hcspdl. We were lucky enough to have Mr. Couros share some great resources and thinking with our #leadhcs administrative teams and #EFFT Ed Tech Task Force members. Also, we welcome our newest member of the DIS team: Mrs. Kerri Quick Correll (@@Quick_eduCATor)! You don't want to miss the first episode this season!

How can you bring more of an #InnovatorsMindset or #InnovateInsideTheBox like @gcouros as he shares with #hcspdl. Shout outs to our Tech Innovators and Edtech Task Force members for their work over the summer.
