These incidents reveal how concentration can create fragile systems.

Writing her latest book on the origins of patriarchy was a "journey of learning" for @AAASKavli winner Angela Saini. "It changed how I thought about the world and how I feel about power...and the need we have as humans to pursue it." #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/pZUwOMf5Oy

This #WomensHistoryMonth, #NSTA is proud to celebrate Dr. Jane Goodall. Dr. Goodall has not only shown us the urgent need to protect chimpanzees from extinction; she has also redefined conservation efforts globally. Learn more at https://t.co/VmpCYSLZbR #WomenInSTEM #SciEd

It takes time to become a highly effective teacher. It also takes time to become a highly effective leader. Both need patience, support, encouragement, praise and effective mentoring. With focus on maximizing strengths, which is growth mindset!
