One of my favourite quotes from @AdamMGrant!

Change is often emotional. I find this especially true when rethinking assessment & grading practices.

It's not about shame or blame but about understanding the range of reactions as you cultivate a new paradigm within your context.

@nmzumpano Congrats to all!

🏫 #Schools don't become "#inclusive schools" by #learning strategies and implementing programs. They become inclusive because the people are collaborative, caring, innovators who make it work for each #student. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

📊 #Assessment is necessary for good teaching. #Grading is not. Dialoguing with, listening to, and observing #students are often our best #assessment. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #TeacherTwitter

@nmzumpano Nicole, You will be greatly missed. I have enjoyed every mtg you have led and have learned so much from you. The IC mtg was always very informative & I hope this group stays together & keeps going. Best of luck in what the future holds for you and please keep in touch!

@henrythiele @INSPRABoard @Dist_99 A well-deserved recognition. Congrats Jill! @Dist_99

🔍 Not completing homework is not proof of insufficient learning. Thus, missing homework shouldn't be recorded as a zero—it's simply missing data. Better, don't grade homework at all. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat #TeacherTwitter

[David Williams @PrincipalHPHS]

In 1912 we knew that grading practices were UNRELIABLE! So why do they persist over 100 years later!

Thanks, Simon!

[Jimmy Casas @casas_jimmy]

Saw this during my classroom walkthroughs today. Would be so cool if students saw this before entering every classroom in every school. Now that is what I call a Culturized classroom. #Culturize
Even better - every building should have it for very staff member as well.
