Website dedicated to Genius Hour. Contains resources for teachers to help implement it in their classrooms. From site: "Genius hour is a movement that allows students to explore their own passions and encourages creativity in the classroom. It provides students a choice in what they learn during a set period of time during school. It's not easy to determine where the idea was originally created, but there are at least two events that have impacted genius hour."

I recently added Tom Whitby (@TomWhitby) and Nancy Blair's (@BlairTeach) #EdChat Radio podcast to my queue. In 10-12 minutes Tom and Nancy recap the recent topic of discussion from that week's #EdChat, and they include a visitor or interviewee to add additional perspective and commentary.
