The concept is simple, works extremely well, and does not require expensive noise-canceling headphones. Thanks to its unique audio engineering, myNoise sets the standard among background sounds.

House of #EdTech VIP (36:34)

Rick Butterworth - Founding member of Wakelet.



In the ever-evolving landscape of classrooms and digital tools, House of #EdTech serves as a grounded conversation about what actually works. Hosted by educator Christopher J. Nesi, this podcast moves beyond simple tool reviews to examine the practical integration of technology with effective teaching strategies. Each episode feels like a collegial chat, where Chris and his guests-often fellow teachers and innovators-break down the latest trends, dissect new platforms, and share honest reflections on their successes and setbacks in real educational settings. The focus is squarely on actionable ideas that can enhance instruction, streamline workflow, and ultimately support student learning. It’s a resource built for the daily realities of teaching, whether you’re looking to refine a single technique or reimagine your approach to edtech. The discussions are rooted in experience, making complex topics accessible and immediately relevant. You’ll find a consistent emphasis on the human element behind the screens, exploring how technology can foster connection and creativity rather than replace it. Tune in for a thoughtful, no-nonsense take on navigating the intersection of education and modern tools. This is a podcast dedicated to the practitioners in the field, offering a blend of inspiration and practical how-to guidance that acknowledges both the potential and the pitfalls of bringing tech into learning spaces.
