Teaching as educational, and what it means to be a teacher as an educator, is disappearing from the schooling landscape and instead being replaced by notions of outcomes, data and evidence void of context –without an educational telos, ‘a sense of purpose' https://t.co/osa266W4hu
"Instead of calling my room an office, I started calling it an idea lab, where innovative ideas are born. Don’t call it a “to-do list', call it a playlist. Don’t call staff “employees", call them inventors. If you give it a conventional name, you’ll get conventional results."

“Students must not only be the co-owners (with parents and teachers) of their own learning, but also co-owners in the development and culture of the school community.” https://t.co/9s6PVxO5zW

"Teachers are used to asking questions that uncover students' knowledge and test their memories. Individually and collectively, we must also get better at asking questions that probe, push, and help to uncover students' thinking." @RonRitchhart in Creating Cultures of Thinking
