Dr. Buckley-Marudas and Chris Rennison sit down with Alexandria Royal, the primary years program coordinator for the Shaker Heights City School District, including Fernway Elementary School. As an International Baccalaureate teacher, Ali discusses how to lay a solid foundation in facilitating digital literacies in the classroom, and her recent experience guiding second graders through a podcasting project.  Through lessons, classroom activities, and encouragement, Ali and her students found success in a strategy called the question formulation technique.  With the help of her colleagues, coworkers, and other resources, Ali shares how to design local and global learning engagements that can facilitate skills that are transferable across contexts.
