Chad Pettit is a high school English teacher, Army veteran, fiction author, and poet. He has a master’s degree in English with an emphasis on rhetoric and composition. As a father and teacher, he has witnessed his children and students suffer from the anxiety of high-stakes, standardized testing for far too long. Chad believes that not only are these tests inequitable and biased, they are inaccurate measures of student growth. Even worse, the current state of education is driving our best teachers away while pushing students through a system that rewards failure and mediocracy. Chad’s mission is to reclaim education on behalf of teachers and students for the sake of our future.  Connect on Twitter! https://twitter.com/myedtechlife  Visit the My EdTech Life Podcast page! https://www.myedtech.life/  Buy me a coffee to keep the creativity flowing! https://bit.ly/3LxSojF  Check out our merch store! https://bit.ly/staytechie  Check out our blog page and follow! https://medium.com/@myedtechlife--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/myedtechlife/supportSupport the show
