We're gonna need a bigger podcast studio.
Earlier this week, EdSurge ran our first virtual Shark Tank, moderated by our very own Mary Jo Madda with big help from our fellow EdSurgent Molly Levitt. The event was put on with the support of the Gates Foundation, and it spun out of a central question: Can video PD provide differentiated, personalized PD that helps teachers to grow in their practice?
This week on the podcast, we hear pitches from three brave companies, BloomBoard, edWeb and LessonCast. And when the pitches are done, it's time for our four educators sharks to attack, asking the tough questions of the entrepreneurs.
Check out the full video of the Shark Tank here. And if you'd like to come to our next event in January, you can sign up for information here.
