During today’s interview, we discuss gamification and standards based grading with Mr. Andrew Kozlowsky, high school social studies teacher from Maryland (@MrKoz31).

In his fifth year of teaching, Andrew has transformed his classroom from what was always a welcoming, rigorous social studies class, to one that is gamified: where students are motivate to learn by using video game design and game elements in the classroom environment.

Listen along as Mr. Koz explains how he pushes kids for excellence each and every day!
