Dr. Bryan Sanders is passionate about rethinking education using a critical techno constructivist lens. Yup, try to say that three times fast! it's a perspective that draws together key thinking by Dewey, Freire and Papert, and it not only led to his doctoral thesis, but also to some of his current energy around the way that we can do school in a different way. Along with Dr. Verena Roberts, Bryan regularly brings together other educators and education thinkers to open up education discourse in this time of pandemic shutdowns.Follow Bryan on Twitter: @nayrbgo
