@PCSpi Leanne I agree, many subjects often get overlooked and I am so frustrated because so much energy is placed in 2 subjects. We are not creating well rounded students. Not only that we are telling our kids only 2 things count Math and LA #AGD583
@jessredford This reminds me of the the articles I have been reading concerning access for all. Shadow Education is really about economics and who has the means to provide for this additional support. #AGD583
This article is a great insight into the perspective of Shadow Education. Do students want it or is it pressure from parents? #AGD583

@heunh The goal of the study, is to gather information on children’s cognitive and social-emotional skills and characteristics of their home and early education environments. I wonder what aspects of home environments they would focus on. So many things to consider. #AGD583
This article focuses on the impact of comparing international assessments.If we think about the reading in the Phillips and Schweisfurth books, assessments can help us to see the lending and borrowing we take from other countries. #AGD583

Diverse Voices: Approaches to Assessment https://t.co/cSL7l3c711 This is a great perspective to see how students placed in a international setting views assessment based on the educational experiences from their home country. #AGD583
@heunh Helen this is really good! I really like how she talks about places that have high achievement uses different approaches to education but get the same results. Aligns so much to our reading in Module 4. Great recommendation #AGD583
Great Interview from the author, Vivien Stewart of A World-Class Education: Learning from International Models of Excellence and Innovation. Looks beyond assessments to determine success from some of the top performing school systems in the world. https://t.co/1dSZOnqCn3 #AGD583
@heunh Great point but that may make implementation of this even harder. Not to mention finding people that are educators and have the ability to teach language may also affect the success of this goal.
