In episode 10 Questioning Learning of the podcast HybridPod, host Chris Friend and guest Amy Collier engaged in an informative discussion about the flaws of blindly adhering to standardized pedagogies. One of the important concepts from the discussion was the necessity for teachers to take risks and deviate from standardized models in order to meet individual student needs and maximize student potential. I decided to outline a few of the issues of standardized pedagogies described by Amy Collier using an infographic as it was an effective way to visually represent the important details of the discussion. To create the infographic I used the website Canva. This was my first experience using this website, and while there were limitations and struggles, it was a very easy site to navigate and proved to be a useful tool.
