A5: I am constantly looking for ways to use technology to my advantage to better prepare my students for the future by teaching them transferable skills and empowering them to guide their own learning. #EduSpin
A4: I think we promote/create empowerment over engagement when we allow students to teach others what they know and engage in meta-cognition to build themselves up as life-long learners #EduSpin
A3: I sit with different student groups as they do group work, sometimes just observing how they interact with each other, other times providing guidance and feedback. I learn so much about student just from hearing them speak to each other. #EduSpin
A2: I empower others to take risks by creating an environment that teaches failure as a growing/learning experience rather than a reflection of "fixed intelligence" so they feel safe to take risks. #EduSpin
Something great I did today was encourage my students to build their writing skills through peer editing. I love how respectful and encouraging they are even when giving "criticism" https://t.co/9peQQB1IYl
A1: I build relationships in the classroom through interest inventories, incorporating student interests into student-led activities, and 1:1 conferencing times #EduSpin
A6: I love getting together with other educators who are teaching the same grade-level and subjects to share our lessons and assessments. I feel that learning, self-reflection, and evaluation are essential to being innovative. #EduSpin
