The Story

‘Learning Through Technology’, hosted by the dynamic duo Alex Inman and Bob Cireddu of STS Education, is where bold ideas and cutting-edge tech meet the modern classroom. Each episode takes listeners on a journey into the ever-evolving world of education technology, featuring fresh perspectives and inspiring insights from some of the brightest minds in the EdTech space.

Back in August 2023, Alex and Bob partnered with Fame with a clear mission: to create a podcast that was not only high-quality and informative but also approachable, inspiring, and totally hassle-free for busy education and tech professionals. They wanted to break through the noise with meaningful content that actually helps educators navigate the digital transformation happening in schools across the country.

Of course, part of the magic is the chemistry between Alex and Bob. Think Rest Is History, if Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook traded ancient empires for interactive whiteboards. They’re sharp, insightful, and just the right amount of ridiculous.

But this podcast is about more than just laughs and impressive stats. It’s building community. It's sparking real conversations among educators, tech leaders, and innovators. And it’s opening doors to exciting new collaborations aimed at transforming the way students learn.

Looking ahead, we’re lining up even more standout guests, diving into timely topics, and continuing to bring the energy, expertise, and entertainment that makes Learning Through Technology more than just a podcast, it’s a movement.

Testimonial

“Fame was was one of the more affordable ones that we looked at. And I think we were a little sceptical that they could deliver the quality that they said they could for the price that they offered. And they have exceeded expectations at every turn. So it's been really wonderful. It has indeed thanks Fame for all you do for us.”
