A clear indication of how far we've💔🇺🇸fallen is when #mypresident does not have to even say your name and every single body knows who he's talking about #ObamaWasBetterAtEverything
I’ve always drawn inspiration from what Dr. King called life’s most persistent and urgent question: "What are you doing for others?" Let’s honor his legacy by standing up for what is right in our communities and taking steps to make a positive impact on the world.

This video outlines one of the major issues that Education for All faces, which is the lack of teachers globally. Some solutions are to invite local leaders to a lesson, increase incentive pay and recruitment practices #AGD583
@heunh I think that EFA has a long way to go to solve this global crisis, but I'm very excited that the movement is hard at work. There still needs to be an increase in funding and teachers to solve the issues. #AGD583
@kyliestoker I really love this too! I didn't realize that TED had children speakers. This talk really makes it clear how important teachers are in the Education for All movement as well! #AGD583
@JABCanary However, I think that mainstream edcuation should be able to provide children with the tools they need to succeed, including a tutor. (2 of 2) #AGD583
@JABCanary I had a similar opinion when reviewing the concept of shadow education, especially in South Korea. Pressue is very high for the children to succeed. I can see how shadow education could benefit some students, because I am a tutor myself. (1 of 2) #AGD583

This article has a very interesting take on international assessment, specifically how comparison based on test scores does not accurately assess our children. #AGD583

This article is useful in describing the benefits of PISA scores. The authors, who are Australian teachers, describe how they can use the PISA reading scores to benefit their students #AGD583
@heunh This was really interesting/disturbing! I agree with @PCSpi, that we already burden our children with too much testing, that does not promote learning. How could they possibly get any useful data when early childhood differs in other countries? #AGD583
I really enjoyed this article! It expressed a lot of the issues with higher education and the fact that learning will continue in many forms outside of school. It highlights that international assessment should transform to fit the new vision of learning. #AGD583 https://t.co/PxG8m59Ccf
@BakerB52@realDonaldTrump We can't even give schools qualified teachers, adequate funding, textbooks, and programs that fix the MANY issues we have in our education system like the dropout rate. We can't even staff teachers for every subject! But give them a gun and gun safety training? K
@heunh I agree! We can assume that teachers will a global perspective will teach in a way they will give their students a global perspective, but what systems are in place to assure this? Study abroad is an option, but what is an option for students who can't afford it? #AGD583
@edlydie I was thinking about this too, because in my experiences in the schools, I haven't seen these goals being met. I understand that it may take a while, but what is being done to begin meeting these goals? #AGD583
@kyliestoker@GoGlobalNC I've been wondering about this too! The teachers are given a global education, but what about the students? What experiences are they given to help build a global perspective. #AGD583
