Boys are losing ground in school and in the workplace. A new book from @RichardvReeves argues it’s time for systemic change—including in education.

Sitting in on a law school class on civil procedure recently offered fresh confirmation of a distinction I've been thinking and writing about for some time: Academically rigorous and intellectually engaging are two very different things.

Great way to get students involved on the first day and build relationships! #SMU622

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

Teach students skills to understand this. #SMU622

An important difference between fallacies and biases is that biases determine/affect/distort how you evaluate--on an ongoing basis--data, ideas, and circumstances. #criticalthinking #reason

We cannot control where our students come from, but it’s important to create a safe and structured environment for them in our learning space. #SMU622

Have you ever talked to a student's parent and realized the apple fell directly under the tree? Like, no bounce. No roll. Right. Under. It.

Reminds me of the #tededtalk given by @DaveEisenmann #SMU622 #digitaldowntime

Sharing personal experiences & allowing for students to relate content to their experiences opens their door for deeper understanding of the content. #SMU622

My pedagogy is rooted in storytelling. Telling my own stories and creating space for young people to tell their stories @paolahadto #HipHopEd

@KelleyHanson21 The decrease in literacy comprehension should be a concern for our educators and for our country. #smu622 #readingisgood

Wednesdays in the woods allow students time to connect with nature outside of the classroom. 🪵

Reminds me of past courses! Growing and learning #SMU622

[Farmers2Founders @Farmers2Founder]

⚡️ Your #attitude determines your direction ⚡️
A #GrowthMindset is when people believe their abilities can be developed through effort, good strategies and input from others. A growth mindset is one of the most important principles for achieving #startup growth and success.

A teacher worked with her class on a four-day unit that included poetry, music, and art to enable them learn more about themselves and to accept differences. 💕

@TeacherTom47 I like that they offer examples of how to apply math to real life by using real life examples. Math can be challenging in many ways so it’s helpful to engage! #SMU622

@AlyssaDeorio I understand that attendance isn’t everything, but it is something and although I don’t have “attendance awards” I am firm in my class that attendance often equals higher grade. We still have to teach expectations. #SMU622

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@jenna_byron15 It’s important for students to build relationships with all different people. We are all a cog in the wheel. #SMU622

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@AlyssaDeorio I think you can find ways to share personal experiences w/out seeming like you are forcing opinions. But if you’re worried about that, have them share personal experiences to further engage them.

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@StephK837 These questions remind me of creating our UBD units in #ldt620 and it forced me to take a deeper look into my lessons. #SMU622

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@TylerGebhart @TylerGebhart this is proof that the skills we teach in our classrooms will go far beyond what we can imagine. #smu622

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@edutopia This is a good read. I teach a large EL population as well and it can be overwhelming especially when you don’t have a co-teacher w/ you.

[Stephanie Olson @smolso21]

@SciWithPeterson I think these would be an easy way to get students engaged right at the start of class and you can adjust based off content & grade level.

We have to have access to have technology to have equity. #SMU622
