I'm the Director of Academics (while teaching Geometry and Spanish on the side) at Valor Prep Academy--a great UMS classical Christian school in Waco, Texas!

Standing in the Apple Store in Greensboro needing help to spend $1000+ on Apple products. However...not a single Apple employee has spoken to me or acknowledged my existence for going on 20+ minutes now. This doesn’t seem like the service I’d expect from Apple. #Apple #AppleStore

@appecben , my partner in the "Zero to Google Trainer" certification in 30 days challenge! ;) #21clhk

@teachingbrewed , it’s also used well in a “just-in-time” sense, to focus on pre-class indicators about what the learners most want/need to cover “live” in the classroom setting (i.e. if everyone struggled with #9 and could indicate this before class, we would focus on that one).

[Justin Perry @JP_Waco]

@teachingbrewed , the best use of class time is interacting and refining ideas and understandings; to experience things only possible within the classroom context. #flippedlearning

Two days of professional learning at #21CLHK! Let the festivities begin!

[C. S. Lewis @CSLewisDaily]

Even in literature & art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.

The particular temptation of the modern world is to think that the destiny of man is in the hands of man. Those who think so [will] end up committing greater and greater evils in the name of saving humanity. -lightly paraphrased from Whittaker Chambers

Best Philosophy of Christian Education book I've ever read = Old School, New Clothes by Hock & Smith. Cuts to the heart of true, proper practice and pulls no punches. #OldSchoolNewClothes

[Justin Perry @JP_Waco]

Who else in Christian education knows in their heart that there are radically different models of education that haven't even been thought up yet? Ones that desperately need to be thought up? #modelsofeducation #christianeducation #radicallynewmodels

This was not an easy WOD yesterday, but WODs with significance behind them are always more motivating. https://t.co/vsQ4GaIbyL

Good grief. The pseudo-hysteria over this blows my mind.

"Scientists agree Climate Change is caused by human activity" Really? Numerous Nobel laureates & ivy league PhD's are on-record saying "no."

Universal truth: Anyone pushing a #FalseConsensus on an issue is afraid of uncovering the #RealTruth about said issue. Why do it otherwise?
