“Excellence in education is when we do everything we can to make sure they become everything they can.”

[Robert J. Marzano @robertjmarzano]

A powerful way to provide choice is for teachers to allow students to generate their own personal learning goals within a unit of instruction. Quite obviously, when students are generating their own goals, there is a greater chance they will focus on subjects that interest them.

An effective leader doesn’t try to fix people or change them. An effective leader creates an environment where people can grow and change themselves. Get the conditions right and get out of the way. #edchat #JoyfulLeaders

Your school’s success is largely determined by the quality of relationships in your school. Stronger relationships=stronger schools! #edchat #JoyfulLeaders #FutureDriven

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

It is not our mistakes, but our response to our mistakes that ultimately defines us.
1. Admit the mistake
2. Correct the mistake
3. Learn from the mistake
4. Avoid repeating the mistake
5. Rise above the mistake
You are greater than your mistakes. Be great!

Assessments should provide students with information about how to advance their understanding of content and teachers with information about how to help students do so.

Education is not a self-serving enterprise. It is not just to benefit the individual. It benefits friends, family, community, and nation. It has global impact.

When you have education, you have a process for hope.
