HOOKED ON EDTECH: 2Tor, which helps extend leading schools' programs into the digital world, announces today that Chip Paucek, its long-time president and chief operating officer, will be CEO while visionary John Katzman becomes executive chairman. Paucek is a talented guy: he co-created "Standard Deviants," ran a political reelection campaign for Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD), and cheerfully--and tirelessly--pitched "Hooked on Phonics" on QVC. He cofounded 2Tor with Katzman, who will still stay involved. "We've already talked twice this morning," Chip told EdSurge while we were still sipping our morning latte.
