    Description: Published Under Former Name: K12ish, now The Edtech Incubator. You've heard of edchats on Twitter, and you've probably seen teacher-focused Facebook groups. But have you ever felt like they weren't enough? Like maybe there was a better way to build community among educators online... Well, that's the story of K20 Educators and its founder Vriti Saraf. You see: Vriti traveled the world connecting with teachers and what she noticed was that most worked in isolation of each other. That even with social media, they struggled to connect with their peers.  And thus the story of K20 starts. In this episode, Anna is sitting down with Vriti to learn what it takes to reimagine social media and professional development in a single platform.
