Today's Podcast:Talkin' bout the NeXt Generation with Mark Taylor

Welcome to this edition of Learning Curve Audio. This episode is a co-production with the Ohio Learning Network.

In this episode I interview Dr. Mark Taylor, Director of Guidance Services at Arkansas State University. Mark is an advocate of Post-Modern Pedagogy to engage Generation Next, our students who are the product of the media saturated and consumer society we have raised them in. He says there is a serious mismatch between what they want and expect from school, and what we offer. Mark was a Keynote speaker at the recent Ohio Digital Commons for Education conference. I’ll provide a link to a recording of his talk when it becomes available. I caught up with Mark between sessions to record a brief interview.
