Social Sciences with David Whitney

GREAT FOR TEACHERS INTERESTED IN EDUCATIONAL DEBATE (AND WHO HAVE  A BIT OF PATIENCE). A conversation with Jack Campbell. Jack is a Maths teacher at GIS who also writes a blog on education. During the podcast we discuss issues around Enquiry learning and direct instruction as well as the wisdom of some leadership driven initiatives in schools. The latter was inspired by a blog that Jack wrote and James responded to. For anyone interested that blog post can be found at: https://goo.gl/WWKEQ9

The podcast was one of our first. It's a little raw and far too long. In the spirit of good learning here is the edited version. It cuts off abruptly at the end. Onwards.
