Venn Diagrams Can Be BetterMatt and Courtney return to talking amongst themselves. In this episode, they discuss Venn diagrams (sorry Mr. and Mrs. Venn!) and how teachers can do something similar yet much stronger for our learners - comparison matrixes! They are so much easier than they sound, and the rigor is through the roof. They also involve all kids by meeting the target, but perhaps not in the same way - take a listen to find out! You'll also hear Courtney's dogs in multiple places throughout the episode. Everyone wants to be on Personalized Learning with Matt and Courtney!
