Summary: In this episode, Dr. Brad Gustafson, talks about his new book, Reclaiming Our Calling: Hold on to the Heart, Mind, and Hope of Education, and why it’s important to support educators who may be feeling tension and conflict within the daily pressures of education accountability. Embedded within the book, Dr. Gustafson says you will find several “hidden layers” that include a digital discussion guide and an innovative new approach to book studies with the launch of his new Underground Book Club (#undergroundbookclub). Dr. Gustafson also shares his thoughts on how Minnesota has become a national leader in school innovation and how his own school has been able to create passionate readers through a new Booktalk DJs initiative that allows kids to explore their own gifts, talents and aspirations.
