Episode 45: Joe Dombrowski: Using Humor to Create Deeper Learning

On this episode, I chat with the hilarious, charming, passionate educator and professional comedian, Joe Dombrowski. We talk about not only why teaching with humor and playfulness is crucial for deeper learning, but also how to make it happen in your classes and lessons, even if you don’t consider yourself naturally funny. You might know Joe from his many hysterical, viral YouTube Videos , or maybe you saw him on one of his appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which I made him tell me all about (see the videos below). And while I can’t say Joe was the most successful player of The 5-Minute Game Show, he was certainly one of the funniest. Don’t miss it at the end of the interview.
