Tee tells us about reconnecting with his high school English teacher to thank her for laying the foundation for him to write Morevi, Billibub Baddings and the Case of the Singing Sword, and the other stories he’s written, and how twice a year he goes back to her class to talk about writing.
The inspiration a student finds from a particular teacher can manifest in unexpected ways, and how a teacher communicates with their students can have an impact on those kids. The teachers talk about the different impacts teachers can have, both positive and negative, over the course of a student’s K-12 education and beyond.

Hi,
I heard about Dragon Page with Class from the Dragon Page podcast. I had a hard time finding it on iTunes. The iTunes link on your page made my Firefox browser crash (could be my computer since I recently updated to Windows 7 64bit or the latest iTunes updates). I went to the iTunes store and searched on it, which came up with nothing. Then I finally found it in the FarPoint media page on iTunes when I selected to see all podcasts. I have not listened to the podcast yet but since I’m a Technology Teacher I thought I would check it out. Hope it is worth all the trouble. Enjoying the Dragon Page podcast and have even listened to a few Slice of SciFi episodes.
You can find an updated With Class at http://www.onlineteacherslounge.com, including a few more new episodes.
This iTunes link should also work for you.
