What does John Hattie’s research tell us about factors that grow student learning?

#1 factor is collective teacher efficacy 🍎

Where does that happen?

Through high quality, weekly, job embedded PLCs or ⁦@NIETteach⁩ calls it cluster.

It’s more than just a meeting.

Having to stay home would have changed all of Shakespeare's plays. Thanks to @waxy104 for this.

Use #GoogleForms to periodically check in with students while school is closed! Forms template in the post :) #kidsdeserveit #tlap #covid19 #scichat #tlap https://t.co/omOJ7S6lB1

Good bet that pre-service teachers can anticipate these types of interview Qs: Have you taught in a virtual learning environment? What have you experienced and/or learned regarding best practices in teaching virtually? #edchat #educhat #teachered

[Whitney Boyar (Stangel) @Ms_Stangel]

@sgthomas1973 Haha! I have definitely done a little of that too! We all need an outlet.

I'm starting to dive deeper into projects that have otherwise been neglected- namely ones that allow me research more diverse literature to share with my students. #edchat #learnleadtech

I hope the need for educators to receive more relevant PD in regard to tech and online learning will continue after we dig our way out of this. #Edchat

[Whitney Boyar (Stangel) @Ms_Stangel]

@HarveyAlvy1 It's really just been about time and research, not necessarily being in an online situation. I can actually sit down for extended periods of time reading reviews, ordering books, and taking the time to read them myself!

@moralleadershp @DrTonyWagner I was talking about this with my student teacher- she has to record herself for edTPA, but why shouldn't I also record myself?

We've done learning walks recently at MVA, but how do we get more teachers to participate? Do they need incentives? Administrative encouragement? Class coverage? Simply the desire to learn? #learnleadtech https://t.co/N35nwntQjO

@DrTonyWagner
states that, "We have long defined rigor in schools as mastery of more and more complex academic content... Here's my stand..." Agree? Disagree? #learnleadtech

Teach students about ethical behaviors through question and discussion. #EDL655 (Sternberg, 2011)

[Whitney Boyar (Stangel) @Ms_Stangel]

"If we create a culture where every teacher believes they need to improve, not because they aren't good enough, but because they can be even better, there is no limit to what we can achieve." #EDL655

[Whitney Boyar (Stangel) @Ms_Stangel]

Looking forward to doing this a lot more when we come back from fall break. #EDL655 https://t.co/sJdUDZIX3p

[Whitney Boyar (Stangel) @Ms_Stangel]

What strategies can we use to teach students ethics? How do we develop lessons around acting ethically? #edl655
