GOOGLEFEST KEYNOTE ANNOUNCED! SHUKES AND GIFF

The Michigan Association of Computers in Learning and GoogleFest are proud to announce our keynote speakers. Jen Giffen and Kim Pollishuke, co-hosts of the #ShukesandGiff the Podcast.

Keynote: Have an AHA? Give it a go!

Based on the premise of their podcast (Shukes and Giff), Kim Pollishuke and Jen Giffen will challenge the audience to question why they have not acted on moments of inspiration, consider the missed opportunity for impact and what could be. Peppered with dad jokes and personal stories, they hope to inspire people to “give it a go” no matter how big or small.

They will also be hosting #ShukesandGiff the Podcast LIVE!

Session: Shukes and Giff: The Podcast LIVE

Podcasting is a great way to engage in professional metacognition and gives students meaningful writing opportunities that can be shared with an authentic audience. Join Kim Pollishuke and Jen Giffen of #ShukesAndGiff The Podcast to be part of a Live AHA Overflow episode recording. Audience participation will be encouraged - they would love to hear your EdTech AHAs! Following the recording, feel free to hang around for a Q&A with Shukes And Giff.
