All 10 points are so good!

Learning a musical instrument, and being part of all the amazing things that come with it, truly is a transformational experience. I once gave a talk entitled “My parents gave me a saxophone, and it changed my life”. Here are 10 things learning the saxophone has taught me: 🧵

This is what I’m saying!! 👇👇

Equitable and inclusive assessment doesn’t lower the bar, it ELEVATES it. It’s just a shift in perspective:

Offer choice ➡️ expect high-quality work

Triangulate assessment ➡️ increase data validity

Give re-tests ➡️ demand proficiency

Equity and excellence go hand in hand.

[Jason To | 杜澤信 @Jason_To]

The focus on equity and anti-oppression in education is 💯 about creating optimal learning conditions and increasing student achievement, with an emphasis on making sure particular communities are served well.

The ONLY agenda is ensuring that ALL students learn.

As we start another wild year of education, take a couple minutes to read through this whole thread + the extra threads at the end! It’s important ⭐️

[David Bowles (has left this place) @DavidOBowles]

I’ll let you in on a secret. I have a doctorate in education, but the field’s basically just a 100 years old. We don’t really know what we’re doing. Our scholarly understanding of how learning happens is like astronomy 2000 years ago.

Most classroom practice is astrology.

[Jason To | 杜澤信 @Jason_To]

Come September, every school should focus on ensuring (and measuring) student inclusion, belonging, participation & engagement and not zero in solely on “learning gaps.”

If you do that, I guarantee that you’ll also address learning gaps.

Teachers - read through this entire thread!

GREAT thread! 👇👇

[andrea @teachbk]

Yesterday during a PD they asked what’s causing you stress & I put in the chat “they keep making us go back to normal and normal wasn’t working”

Today in a meeting my principal asked me what I meant by that. She gave me the chance to say more. So I did.
