Ronda and David get behind the mic in the Perfect Chaos Studios this week to record this week's episode of the show, and have a great conversation about certifications. While we focus on education, we recognize that this is something that can have relevance in other professions such as EMS and the Fire service, computer science, even retail. Now we aren't talking about the role of initial licensure, and we aren't evening talking about the role of professional development and licensure renewal, this is talking about add on certifications. Ronda makes mention of several to include KaHoot certifications, Microsoft and Google certifications and some from organizations such as ISTE. We answer the questions, about why do certifications at all, what are the benefits of certifications, and are all certifications created equal.
Here are some examples of certifications
Kahoot, Bronze, Silver and Gold Certifications: https://kahoot.com/certified/
Google Certified Educator:
Microsoft Certified Educator: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/microsoft-certified-educator/
*These are just a few examples of educational certifications. There are many and these are just some that Ronda referenced.
Feel good/Tip of the Week:
In this week's tip, David mentioned a big milestone accomplished by Ronda this week. Her textbook Educational Technology: Big Ideas and Practical Applications for the Classroom has been completed. This has been a labor of love, and now they move to the online content, but it will be ready for implementation this Spring.

Ronda reminded us about the need to be intentional. Her 2020 word has led to continued internal self reflection about the need to be intentional in our lives.
