In this episode, we talk to Adam Franklin, Sr. Product Manager for Content at K12 platform Nearpod.

Adam explains his journey from high school classroom teacher to curriculum developer to edtech product manager, as well as what it's like building and curating a world-class content library to get teachers the resources they need.

We also talk about an age-old k12 edtech dilemma: how to get big enough to sell to school districts while staying agile enough to respond to your end users.
