This, and: when I learned #InstructionalDesign was a thing, I naively wondered, “so why do we still have all these teaching and learning problems?” 😂 (answer: because this stuff is hard, takes time, requires change, requires overcoming resistance)

@chad_black_ No, they don’t make us do that. But thanks for the shout out 👍🏽

@TLightfoot07 This is great - I’m saving it to dig deeper into!

[Dresden Jones @JonesDresden]

@mrsbriipinen They do! I can recall vividly the teachers who made me feel like I mattered.

[Dresden Jones @JonesDresden]

@HoldtGail I love this! Funny and a great reminder why middle school is such a critical time.

[Dresden Jones @JonesDresden]

@_natsku_ Who wants to follow a list of don’ts?! Much better to teach students to think critically, as we’ve learned!

100% agree. Understanding and comprehension aren’t necessarily reflected in grades. #smu622

[Brian Aspinall @mraspinall]

When kids cheat on assignments it is because they have been taught that grades outweigh the importance of knowing things. We need to fix this.

All adults are learners & the skills they develop not only impact their professional lives, but their personal lives as well.

Teaching #CriticalRaceTheory means teaching the truth.

Currently working on restorative justice/just culture in my work. This couldn’t be more true, both at the K-12 level and in adult learning. #smu622

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

”Restorative practices, at their best, are part of a school culture that prioritizes culturally sustaining pedagogy and authentic relationship building. ... Without that foundation, it’s hard to move straight into restorative work.”

This is really cool. I don't teach; I design courses and I'd love to work with my facilitators to design something that can take our learners outside. #professionaldevelopment #smu622

I have designed EI courses in the corporate world and I can tell you...it's necessary. Starting to teach EI earlier makes sense and will set students up for success as adults. #smu622

All children deserve a quality education, regardless of background.

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

Almost four decades after 'Plyler v. Doe,' too many schools continue to deny immigrant students and emerging English speakers their fundamental rights to an education. Use these new resources to advocate for them.
