What does #citizenship mean?
It's not being part of an elite club... it means stepping up and acting to take care of the world, together with others.

Q3: one of the most common barriers I've seen to quality improvement over the years is leaders losing interest or energy or moving on to other priorities. Most large scale change efforts fizzle out. Having constancy of purpose for the long haul is critical for sustainable improvement #LeadingQI #QIHour

Please stop saying that we need to increase teacher salaries in order ��recruit the best and brightest” as if the best and brightest are not currently teaching.

We need to increase teacher salaries because those currently teaching deserve and earned it.

I’m often asked for “evidence” ungrading works. I start by pointing to the copious evidence that traditional grades and standardized assessment are inequitable. Asking hard questions about bad assumptions institutions make about the efficacy of grades IS the work of ungrading.

This is truly an honour. Wow. I’m sweaty and blushing.

Just a reminder folks - if you support the new BC Indigenous-focussed graduation requirement, it's important to let the Ministry of Education know (via an on-line feedback form on the engagement site). https://t.co/dP7iPfaMJQ
