Check out this wonderful discussion with @UMSLCOE alum, Pete Paciorek, "How sports can help students build leadership skills." Dr. Pete completed his Ed.D. with a focus on character education. We'll be launching a new character Ed.D. cohort in fall 2025. https://t.co/ha1XCg83eX

School culture usually doesn't have a single author. What are you doing to make your school's culture better for students and staff?

I love working with Tom.

Artificial Intelligence and MI? Why not?

[UMSL Educational Leadership @UMSLLead]

Check out @TomHoerr's thoughts on #ArtificialIntelligence: "I’m dubious about the ability of AI to read and understand people’s emotions; I’m doubtful that AI will be able to feel and generate empathy." What do you think?

Teachers ARE the key to student learning and the quality of a school, so let's not limit how and when we show this!

[Tom Hoerr @TomHoerr]

How did the teacher feel about the lesson? What pleased her, what would he do differently? "What did you learn?" is the best question to ask in a post-observation conference.

[Tom Hoerr @TomHoerr]

Effective principals are good listeners. The key to a productive post-observation conference is the questions that are asked, not the strategies that are shared.

[Tom Hoerr @TomHoerr]

@shulsie Well done, Tracy!!!

[Tom Hoerr @TomHoerr]

Principals can create a school culture in which everyone grows and cares for one another. Make time for collegiality and fun, and don't have a designated parking space for the principal.

Empathy is always needed, and, yes, especially these days.
