What Can Teachers Subtract From Their Workloads? https://t.co/aBevbX3A2c

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

When leaders fail to explain why they rejected suggestions, we stop making them.

Good explanations do more than give reasons. They express respect.

We don't have to get our way to appreciate having a say. Showing care makes us feel valued—and motivates us to speak up again.

[Cult of Pedagogy @cultofpedagogy]

Cal Newport defines Shallow Work as "non-cognitively demanding, logistical-style tasks, often performed while distracted. These efforts tend to not create much new value in the world and are easy to replicate."

What are examples of shallow work that fill teachers' days?

[Angél W. Kytle @akytle]

@misshobson_ Yes and... how might the practice of number talks amplify this approach? @GarlandLinkenh1

Yes and how can teachers/leaders teach/lead in our schools and programs if they don’t feel that they belong?

[Angél W. Kytle @akytle]

@klundstromatmv Yes! I appreciate the positive approach to reflecting on managing and leading simultaneously. They are not mutually exclusive.

[Angél W. Kytle @akytle]
