EdTech Situation Room Episode 7

Welcome to episode 7 of the EdTech Situation Room from April 6, 2016, where technology news meets educational analysis. This week Jason Neiffer (@techsavvyteach) faced some road warrior bandwidth blues, so the show went on with Jon Samuelson (@jonsamuelson) joining Wesley Fryer (@wfryer) to catch up on the heroic Oregon trek and adventure of Jon's family in past year along with some of the past week's technology news. Those topics included the FBI's decision to drop their lawsuit against Apple over iPhone encryption, the release of the Tesla Model 3 by Elon Musk, Google's April Fools Day video about Google Plastic, the ethics of 3D printing in veterinary hospitals, and Facebook's latest foray into video and livestreaming. We also expressed our undying admiration of Tony Vincent and fond memories of the amazing "Mobile Learning Experience" conference he hosted for five years with the Arizona K12 Center. Wes shared JuniorTube as his Geek of the Week link, and Jon shared Twitter user @irvspanish 's YouTube channel of Minecraft videos for ESL teachers and students.
