Dan Meyer Is Awesome! 

The first time a saw Dan Meyer I thought he was awesome and no matter how many times I watch the same talks that he gives, and I've watched them a lot, I feel the same.

His use a technology to complement his subject and his teaching is fantastic. He presents real world problems that require higher order thinking skills in order to engage his students. Every time I watch his videos it leaves me thinking about how I can incorporate some of his methods into my own lessons.

Take care of yourself..... and each other.
