Just listened! It’s great… signature wit from @P_A_Kirschner, quote-worthy commentary from @C_Hendrick, smooth facilitation by @rastokke, and @DrJimHeal is marginally tolerable (translation: always tops in my book).
🚨 New episode is amazing! Paul Kirschner, Carl Hendrick & Jim Heal unmask some instructional illustrations, from discovery learning to innovation fads, engagement & more. It's a great preview of their new book! Link to episode below⬇️ @P_A_Kirschner @DrJimHeal @C_Hendrick
