This is Jennifer Gonzalez welcoming you to episode 112 of the Cult of Pedagogy Podcast.

In this episode, I'm going to tell you about six tech tools you should try in 2019.

In January, to celebrate the launch of my annual Teachers Guide to Tech, I choose six tools that grabbed my attention while creating the guide.

Six tools that I think you should know about.

Six tools that made me stop in my tracks and say, holy cow, this is good.

In this episode, I'm going to tell you about those plus two more that I'm calling honorable mention because I just had to squeeze them in.

They really could make your life a lot easier as a teacher.
