I'm a high school physics teacher, a HUGE Packers and Badgers fan, and a bit hestitant to join Twitter.

The failure aspect is big. I think most in the public would say is our job is to prevent failure, not embrace it. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

Confronting the A, B, C, D, F grading mentality that has been in place for generations-bucking the status quo. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

@frazer16 There is definitely a disconnect between this mentality and the various testing platforms and assessments. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

That would be "concerted effort"...#LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

@Mrslazzaroni that's kind of what I was trying to say. There needs to be concerted and consistency. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

I think working with our colleagues aren't taking this to help them work on growth mindset will make our efforts more effective. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

I think most of us have a growth mindset, now we have a more structured way to convey it to our students. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

I'm going to not put grades on assignments and tests. And I'm going to use "not yet" A LOT. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

I thought the video we watched was really powerful for teaching the importance of a mindset change. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

From a high school perspective we also need the post-secondary establishments to buy in too. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

The "not yet" mentality. Also educating kids and parents about the concept. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

Good morning. #LGUMindset

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

Present. Good morning all#LGUMindset

@SykesCharlie @DLoesch isn't one of the concepts of democracy that the rights of the minority should be protected?

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

I only hope I can remeber and use 1/4th of what I seeing and learning here #wa12

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

my wife teaches 2nd grade, I think she might find this interesting if she doesn't use it already #wa12

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

Go Greg! #wa12

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

our beginning science classes could use this to focus on accuracy precision, and measurement units #wa12

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

@jstrevino so teachers are here to exploit kids and their parents? Guess I missed that one when I decided to serve my community and teach

[Jim Gebhardt @jrgebhardt]

Did Sykes and Walker berate private sector workers who struck? Maybe their jobs weren't as important?
