In today's post, I bring you another episode of Bloggers You Should Know, featuring Matt Miller. Not to be confused with Topeka's meteorologist, Matt Miller, this Matt Miller was, in fact, a news reporter before he came into education. He then taught high school Spanish in Indiana, and rose to fame with his first book, entitled Ditch that Textbook. Since then, he's written other books, like Ditch that Homework, and speaks at different venues around the country. He's a Google Certified Innovator and often does his blog posts around Google topics. I have had the pleasure of seeing Matt speak. He's one of those people that makes you feel like you are buds and he really wants to help you. His blog is awesome and has so many resources for incorporating tech into the classroom. He also starting doing Ditch Summit every year around Christmas, which is a FREE PD opportunity, and you can participate from home in your PJs if you so choose, as it's a series of video interviews with different innovators from the education world.
I encourage you to go to ditchthattextbook.com and check him out. If you sign up to receive his blog posts, you'll get a free copy of his 101 Practical Ways to Ditch That Textbook e-book!
