The fourth episode of The Academy of Esports Podcast focuses on how I helped get esports launched in the Rockford Public Schools in 2015 and our reasons and rationales to do this. This episode looks at the first ISTE Standard for Students (2016) and walks through how each indicator is connected to esports.
