In this episode of EdUp EdTech, hosts Holly Owens and Nadia Johnson interview Michael McCreary, Co-founder of Teaching Tools. McCreary shares his journey from being a graduate student at Johns Hopkins to co-founding Teaching Tools with his sister, a professional software engineer. The company offers a range of tools designed to help instructors incorporate effective teaching practices into their classrooms.
