@nc_armstrong@heunh I think any progress is good progress but we do have a long way to go. I think getting proper funding is crucial in eliminating some of the obstacles listed in the global citizen article. #AGD583
I love that this TED talk is from a child talking about what Education for All including why it is important and what issues it still has. https://t.co/SlVLysAbG7 #AGD583
@MrsMosleyMc I love TED talks! One point that he brought up was how some people think it’s unfair that some students have never seen the questions before, but that’s how life is like. As teachers it’s important to teach transferable skills not just how to solve specific problems #AGD583
@whitefire28555 I also found and enjoyed this article. I think it points out a lot of great points about intl assessments. The fact about how we start testing at 4th grade instead of sooner is interesting. I would be curious to see what kindergarten or 1st graders tested at. #AGD583
This article nicely explains some of the differences between the PISC and the TIMSS assessments. What are the pros and cons to having different intl assessments? https://t.co/K2onyKWimO #AGD583
We have so much technology and information at our fingertips we should be using it make our classrooms more global. So, after reading about @GoGlobalNC's 2017 Germany teacher training, how many teachers in NC take their classes on virtual field trips around the world? #AGD583
@ali_katxo I have questioned the same thing. The only time we had to take a foreign language was two years in high school. I think not only should school implement FL programs, but schools should offer a larger variety of foreign languages. #AGD583
