Terminology is a natural vehicle of content knowledge. Students can use #wordsastools to decoding complex concepts when learning concepts&skills of the subject, so teach students to use content-specific vocabulary in their conversations/writing before teaching knowledge.#gse561

#2birds1stone learning with pictures is not merely about learning knowledge, it’s also about learning the visual grammar. #multiliteracies encourage students to locate, evaluate (also where #criticalliteracy can be applied), and process all the spoken&unspoken messages. #gse561

[LindsyC @LingyuC]

#criticalliteracy,as a #criticalpedagogy approach,helps learners to cultivate #conscientization that focuses on achieving a deep understanding of the world.During the engaging process in complex contexts, teachers and leaners should be developmental positioned properly.#gse561

Knowing the culture or language doesn't guarantee intercultural competence for learners. The development of #interculturalcompetence can be realized in ways such as in-class activities, on-campus interaction with students from different cultural backgrounds, study aboard.#gse561

Massages carried in a face-to-face conversation have more #affordances than the same massages written on paper. In terms of #translanguagingspace, I think people using emoji&memes so often when texting is to express #hiddencontexts missing from written forms. #gse561

#GSE561 speaking from my personal experience, I think that the progress of coswitching between #BICS and #CALP can be further improved when language leaners have more #fundsofknowledge in the language. It can help leaners to better understand the logic in the #academicwriting.

#gse561 Significant changes require learners’ emotions and desires engaged, in which case home-based context learning activates children’s interests and motivation by utilizing classroom instructions. Funds of knowledge, a teaching of literacy, is reciprocity and participatory.

#gse571 A transformational school leader ensures students focus on their studies by being considerate of individuality, being charismatic in influencing them, and inspiring them. And he or she involves students and teachers to come up with solutions to problems as they arise.

[LindsyC @LingyuC]

#gse571 school leaders should develop a corresponding mindset of educational leadership to cope with the needs and expectations of students and parents in 21st century.

#gse571 this activity in the video is fairly interesting, and if I were a principal, I'd love to have this activity at my school.

#gse571 Healthy conflicts such as asking questions to probe for deeper understanding, demonstrating curiosity, and holding student needs at the center of our work should be encouraged, as it can facilitate the development of a school.

[LindsyC @LingyuC]

#gse571 Of course conflict makes people nervousIt, but it is your role as a leader to address unhealthy conflict in a team you lead or facilitate. Your primary role as a leader is to attend to your team member's dynamics with each other and to build a constructive team culture.

#gse571 the rapid development of edu tech has brought up some legal issues like privacy, copyright etc. School leaders need to have an open communication with all stakeholders involved in the creation of corresponding policies. Again, communication is crucial for leadership.

[LindsyC @LingyuC]

#gse571 school leaders also work as edu tech coordinators can really save up the budget and have more influences. This role reorganization of principals can really help principals know more and know better about students and teachers.

#gse571 Good point! Conflicts can become worse if no one is willing to communicate about the issues. When conflicts happen at school, it’s important for school leaders to bridge an effective communication about the conflict.

[HanYang423 @Han810877844]

#gse571 Depend on different cultures, people see conflicts in different ways. When there's no communication, issues come up, the simple method is the best, try to communicate and speak out and share your opinion, that's the first step to solve problems!

[LindsyC @LingyuC]

#gse571 For educational leaders, it is necessary to evaluate students as individuals, not as a group. Teachers’ accountability in terms of students progress can, and must, be maintained on an individual continuum and not a group continuum.
