WEP 221: Fresh Air At Five an Interview with Bryon Carpenter

An Interview with Bryon Carpenter


In this 221st episode of The Wired Educator Podcast, I interview Bryon Carpenter, an amazing educator, podcaster and thinker. I love his positivity and intentional reflection on what he is learning. His ability to reflect, apply and share fascinates me. I am enchanted by his ability to wake early, get walking, learn from podcasts, reflect and share with the world. You will love Bryon too. He is a wonderful, authentic educator and human. 

We talk about:

  • Creativity and how students can express themselves through Media Design
  • Why he started the Fresh Air At Five podcast. 
  • How sharing reflections affect his PLN.
  • and more!

Bryon currently serves as a secondary math, science, and technology teacher at the Abbotsford Virtual School since 2010, in Abbotsford, BC, Canada. He took a leave from AVS in 2015-16 to serve the Abbotsford School District as a Helping Teacher for Technology.   During that time he became a Google Certified Educator and met EdTech Team which inspired him want to bring their Google Summit to Abbotsford.  Before this he did not consider himself “a creative” but his mind has changed as he has grown in his utility of EdTech tools, namely Adobe Spark and Google tools.  Bryon is also an Adobe Creative Educator.

Bryon says, “Technology is merely a tool, which when wielded appropriately can enhance this human endeavor we call education.”
