Wicked Decent Learning
Wicked Decent Learning explores issues relevant to teachers in Maine and the world beyond the Vacationland borders. Hosted by two practicing public educators, WDL features a weekly discussion followed by technology integration tips, media integration ideas, book talks and a 'Didja See?' segment about the week in education news. And no show would be completely without a few tangents and a healthy dose of shenanigans. Contact Wicked Decent Learning at www.wickeddecentlearning.blogspot.com or wickeddecentlearning@gmail.com

"Ayuh", it's a "wicked good" podcast. I have listened to the first two and they are informative and funny. I am a High School teacher in Maine and this podcast brings up topics that are helpful and interesting. Even an "out of statah" (someone not from Maine) and K-8 teachers will find this podcast useful.
