Middle school ICU principal for 5+ years, βWe have improved academic achievement in all state-assessed areas in Alabama, including Reading, Writing, Math, and Science.β
Treats and Threats are extrinsic band-aids. ICU is a change of direction that relies on intrinsic motivators with much better results.
@poweroficu Hey @poweroficu and Danny! Spot on! ICU works and is flexible to adjust to the teachers, campuses and district to wrangle in student work. I've been around it in 2A-5A schools I've worked at here in Texas, and it's worked every time.
Teacher from Missouri: βYou guys need to check out ICU. Itβs the perfect blend of getting student work in a timely manner, holding them accountable, and mastery of skills. I was a lifeguard and my turnaround for late work was under three days most of the time. 10,000+ missing assignments saved each year.β πππ§βπππ https://t.co/8Yd57E6aTe
"Since we implemented ICU, we have seen a dramatic increase in student achievement. From last year to now, we have seen nearly a 65 percent failure rate reduction." https://t.co/GfSQleFnNs
"When you give students a zero or accept low quality work, you are letting them OFF THE HOOK!" Read Power of ICU by Danny Hill (available on Amazon https://t.co/cBbs6MqPxp).

The @poweroficu team is excited to be in New Orleans for the SREB Making Schools Work Conference! We look forward to sharing strategies to end student apathy and support learning. #sreb#makingschoolswork#SREBSummer
We are so glad you enjoyed the summer conference in Nashville this year. πThe Power of ICU team loved meeting the many schools from across the US. It did my heart good seeing the collaboration and in depth conversation about supporting learning and defeating apathy. π
