Podclassed
Podclassed is focused on sharing a variety of perspectives on varying topics in education with the goal of improving education for every student. While we’re not sure that a podcast can change the world, we believe that the first step is having important conversations. Each episode focuses on a specific topic in education. These topics are discussed by parents, educators, and experts and hosted by Laura Axtell, M.Ed. from Reading Horizons.
