@MmeSamTeaches Collaboration is a great skill for our students to learn! It not only helps them develop social skills, but having the ability to work as a team, understanding roles within a group and reaching a common goal is essential to character development.

@MmeSamTeaches @missmmemurphy This is a great point! Students need to try, try, try. Trying new things and exploring outside your comfort zone is pivotal to their development as learners and as people!

[Alex @MrJones_13]

@missmmemurphy I agree! What better way to prepare our students for life, than to develop task-based assignments! Are there any you have sued in your classroom?

@alexpellerin644 I really like the idea of 'self-motivation and student empowerment'. These are the assets that students need to acquire. It is certainly a challenge to have some students develop this mindset, but that's what teaching's all about!
