I have amazing patterns already…but sample size is too small- any US school leader, last 3 years- all schools & states- Please forward to anyone. 😎 It’s a non-funded study! As a principal- we’re so busy, but our perspectives matter.

@TCEA @ArtsInEdu The Hess Cognitive Rigor Matrices take Bloom’s and DOK levels and give actual examples of increasingly complex cognitive rigor-
The focus on a verb is no longer the emphasis, as it was not effective.

So — this has four different references to assessments, and one reference to encouraging creativity. Teachers ask how they’re supposed to allot time to creativity when they’re pressured to raise test results, where assessment = tests and convergent thinking.

@TCEA Missed: acceleration, the number one research-supported strategy. Also, the Hess Cognitive Rigor Matrices can be used to create tiered objectives. https://t.co/u7acQBd872

Great conversation as a guest presenter today at @UCCS College of Education, with preservice teachers. What do you think of when you hear “gifted” students?

Multiple, higher-level overexcitabilities expressed together are distinctly different (than one or two overexcitabilities) and allow profound autonomous forces to develop such as strong independence, self-direction, and self-education. https://t.co/qjE1eSVrm5

@jeremyajorg Hi! Just read, and left a comment, on your Proficiency Scales article on Why Edify. Very curious- are you still using Learning Scales, and see success with them?

@MrNateDunn @MrZachG working with teachers to have them visit each others rooms and other schools- that also takes some mindset ahead of time, too. Had a great conversation w/a veteran & laughed bc when she first went into a room for this she was observing kids & forgot to notice teacher strategies
