Great to have
Leo Burd join me tonight on
MaximizingProgress.tv!
Currently back at MIT at the
Center for Future Civic Media as a Research Scientist running the
Department of Play, Leo's especially interested in educational technologies and environments for social engagement and youth empowerment. I first got to know Leo during his PhD research in the
Lifelong Kindergarten group at the
MIT Media Lab where he was studying how community centers and relevant technologies can enable meaningful and rich collaborations among kids and adults alike. Before his MIT studies, Leo Burd brought technologies to public schools and low-income communities in his home city,
São Paulo, Brazil, and most recently he was part of Microsoft's Global Learning research team.
