https://t.co/lZsMvD1Cgt We MUST get rid of the 7 and 8 period day. We MUST get rid of the 7 and 8 period day. Our children need to learn deeply, not parade around the school in order to pass tests. #christianschools#christianeducation@ChristianSchMgt@tsdlorg
https://t.co/W7j2vvKo7B "teachers visit the homes of each family....asked about their strengths as a family and any goals they have for their child." Really good reminders and/or insights into what teachers can do. #christianschools#christianeducation@ChristianSchMgt@tsdlorg
https://t.co/YfNgaDH63U Urgency means planning has failed. Oh, there are some genuine crises. But most school crises are entirely predictable. Choose to plan better and react less. #christianeducation#christianschools@ChristianSchMgt@tsdlorg
https://t.co/S0tosEXqlr Once a year classroom observations do not result in useful evaluation. Actually, they are a waste of time. Marcus Buckingham noted, rating tells us more truth about the rater than the rated. #christianschools#christianeducation @CHristianSchMgr @tsdlorg
https://t.co/Wa1ZPKE8db "Personalized learning is a common aspiration for students, yet adult learning remains astonishingly homogenous." Adults need a suit of PD clothes that fits them like a glove, not a sack of potatoes. #christianeducation@tsdlorg@ChristianSchMgt
When we contextualize skills, or make them incidental, and allow them to exist alongside the basic needs they are used to fill, they’re simply much easier to learn -- so easy that we barely realize we’re doing it. https://t.co/XJ9QTycrsZ
"Every school takes their own approach to how they manage time, space, and learning beyond the walls of the school. That’s how you continue to scale and sustain transformation across a school district." —@DugleSusan https://t.co/DEBp7w9YKk #edreimagined#edpolicy
"I think it's really meaningful to give students the opportunity to create without a blueprint. That enables them to dream up something authentic and original." —Jim McCue https://t.co/mNTKdMHvfr #edreimagined#suptchat
https://t.co/UFiITOvfT1 "now they are just working one job, people are showing up on time now, they're reporting to work in a better mood, customer service has improved, things like that that you don't always account for." #christianeducation#christianschools@tsdlorg @ChrSchMgt
Radical trust of students. They embrace learning when they have autonomy. Plus executive functioning skills are naturally developed. Younger students are able to handle this too. #edchat#education#edutwitter
So true! How about take-your-parent-to-school day...Parents as experts in their field sharing with students...about take-your-teacher-to-work day...Parents are so much more than parents. #parentengagement#edchat#education
To sustain transformational work in education, parents and guardians must be fully enrolled. Discover how that looks in practice. https://t.co/2Cqxneheb6 #suptchat#edpolicy
SLC are essential in all school cultures. They are truly transformative. Tsdl has experienced
great success with SLC across all levels. #studentledconferences#educhat#education
What happens when you encourage kids to take charge of their learning journey by sharing their proud moments and their growth opportunities with their families in a conference? They rise to the occasion and shine. ✨
When the education of every single child is seen through the lens of a Steven Spielberg or George Lucas, epic stories will become the norm rather than the exception. @edutopia#edutwitter#edchat#education
