@mgh0045au I think that it’s important to set clear expectations for what needs to be completed in the group work, and to ensure that the students know that the topic they are working on in their groups is meaningful and why it’s meaningful.

@carbrill1 I think that no matter how much we try to prepare, nothing can truly prepare us for a tragedy in the classroom. I think that being honest & creating a safe space for students to feel comfortable being vulnerable are the best ways to handle a situation like that.

How can we prepare students for the intense grading and testing they will have later on in life if we do not implement those practices in our own classrooms? https://t.co/EXAFgTl16v

“Anyone who requires a formal test to know what is going on may need to reconsider the approach to instruction being used and whether he or she is talking too much or listening too little” (pg. 203). #auctee3100book21

@EscaleraLizzy There are many issues we were taught growing up in schools that were just touched on, & for many of us we did not see the extent of how horrible our country’s history was. In order for students to understand deep issues of our country today, they must learn the history behind it.

@AnneDoxtader It’s so important for everyone to feel represented in the things they are taught; & for certain students to not be represented in books, a huge part of classrooms, could make them feel like they are not as important & they could feel disconnected from the class & their identity.

“…the hidden curriculum dictates that teachers do not spend their time helping children to become caring and responsible, but on maintaining ‘discipline’” (pg. 164). What are some ways teachers can manage their classrooms without students feeling controlled? #auctee3100book21

@mgh0045au I think that rather than offering students and employees rewards for doing their jobs, it is so important to tap into intrinsic motivation and try to get them to enjoy what they are doing rather than them just doing it for the reward/money.

@ReillyDavis13 Knowing your students past trauma is crucial because it allows us to be sensitive to their issues and behaviors in the classroom. We can know the “why” behind their actions and then better address the issues rather than discipline them.

“Most American schools marinate students in behaviorism, so…children’s intrinsic motivation drains away. They typically become more and more extrinsically oriented as they get older” (p. 91). What are some ways to keep students intrinsically motivated? #auctee3100book21

@RebeccaFriday14 Some students might go unnoticed because they try to not bring attention to themselves. Even with the students who try to hide, it is our job as educators to acknowledge these students and ensure that they know we care and encourage them to not be scared to speak up.

[Hannah Proctor @hannahp_au]

@CallieAntonCTEE I think students will be more receptive to writing about things they enjoy rather than responding to a prompt. Some students might feel embarrassed to share personal stories. To help with this I would not share their writing but pull them aside to tell them what I liked about it.

“What rewards and punishments do is induce compliance, and this they do very well indeed” (Kohn 41). Many teachers today rely on rewards/punishments to get students to listen and learn. What are other strategies we can use to motivate students instead? #auctee3100book21
