George is the author of two books: The Innovator's Mindset and Innovate Inside the Box (with Katie Novak). We discuss the elements of his Core of Innovative Teaching and Learning, what he's learned along his journey (and some things he used to do, but no longer does), and how to innovate inside the current system - inside the box, as it were.
