How do good teachers facilitate deeper learning? “They were trusting that adolescents, regardless of what skills or knowledge they may not yet have gained, are capable of complex thinking...” A great read about looking at the measurables that matter.

[Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) @hgse]

To begin promoting deeper learning in your classroom:
* Start thinking of your students as apprentices
* Focus on depth over breadth
* Give up some control

There is a lot of information to process these days in the world of #cndpoli. While I won’t take an overtly partisan stance as an educator, I do think this is an incredibly important opportunity for our youth, in weighing evidence, paradigm and perspective. #futureelectorate

It is through mistakes that knowledge will grow. Teachers do not need to be the all knowing expert. It is better to model being a curious inquirer. Someone who seeks to play with knowledge, learn with students & model being OK making mistakes & learning from them. #LimitlessMind

February is over. Ss and Ts can see “the light”. Now is as good time as ever to remind ourselves of the power of perseverance and the long game. Although I’d like it if it were a different word, grit is not always about the grind. It’s optimism, resilience & hard work. #edchat

[TED-Ed @TED_ED]

"Grit is passion and perseverance for very long-term goals. Grit is having stamina. Grit is sticking with your future, day in, day out… Grit is living life like it's a marathon, not a sprint." https://t.co/vXnPIpJMVE
