What becomes possible when educators, learners, families and community partners work toward the same vision for learner success? A learning community connects their efforts, resources and expertise so every learner has opportunities to grow and thrive. https://t.co/JxfLKihnIr

Kentucky is redefining what accountability can be. Instead of relying only on test scores, districts are building systems that also measure the skills, experiences and outcomes their communities value most for learners. Read more about this growing movement. https://t.co/cgo3eXLsA7

What gets measured shapes the system. Teacher evaluation doesn’t just assess instruction; it signals what matters, influences incentives and drives daily classroom decisions. When evaluation aligns with vision, transformation becomes possible. Read more: https://t.co/VuxcdIkTWm

The Grade Illusion: Why A’s And B’s Don’t Guarantee Workplace Readiness https://t.co/x1SJVHksoy Written by Matt Williams of @knowledgeworks

What are young people capable of doing because AI exists that they could never have done before?

That’s the question I carried with me through #UNGA81 this week.

Teach young people to think. Help them discover what they care about. Give them problems worthy of their curiosity and creativity. And then give them the tools to build what none of us has yet imagined.

I’m heading home energized by the people pushing this work forward and grateful to Ana Rold and our friends at Diplomatic Courier, Yuri Belfali, and our @OECDEduSkills colleagues, @BrookingsInst, HundrED, Education House, @knowledgeworks, and Capita, and my @CtrEdEcon team, and so many others who shared their thinking, pushing us onward.
