Things like this make this book interesting to read. It’s for a class, but I can see many great benefits for all educators to read it. #oklaed#edchat#cultureisnotrace
American democracy is vitally linked to the strength of public education. But don't take our word for it. Just ask one of America's most fascinating founding fathers https://t.co/8w2UewoNz4#edchat#suptchat#k12#education

Be the teacher you would want your own children to have. Be the teacher YOU would want to have. If you wouldn’t sit in your own class and enjoy it, change it. #EdChat#InnovatorsMindset

Breaking News: The Trump administration will urge schools and colleges to ignore race in admissions, reversing an Obama-era guideline meant to bolster diversity https://t.co/5KJigUmNvw
Well said @bethenygross. We have had great classrooms out there (and some schools) for a long time. They are the necessary beginning but systems change & support is critical to scale and sustainability. Passive permission & half-assery will not do. #edchat#D11NextGen#conextgen
Is the new education reform hiding in plain sight? https://t.co/Z5QL1HMpnD
Possibly, but our research suggests we need to change more than classrooms and schools for this kind of opportunity to take off. https://t.co/zvd2gXFDWB
Thank you @ShakeUpLearning@Texthelp's Read&Write. So many great ideas for digital reads that apply to all ages and abilities. Wonderful tips to create enthusiasm and success for student readers. #edchat
#LeadLAP should be required reading for every single leader in public education. So many negative admin experiences could be turned positive with this simple alteration of fundamental thinking. It's really isn't "gotcha" but "I've got you". #edchat
A4: Always modeling that it should never be about "GOTCHA" between admin and teachers...always "I've got you'" We're on the same team for sure! #tlap#LeadLAP
Content knowledge isn't enough to teach.
If you have a doctorate in history, say, that's great - but it doesn't mean you won't enact a lot of bad pedagogy as you improvise based on your memories of school
Did you know, @theweekjunior helps you teach your pupils about amazing people, past and present! We recently featured the amazing Frida Kahlo. @FridaKahlo#FridaKahlo#edchat
"All students need to be loved." Yes, OK. What does that actually mean? Based on age, culture etc. that looks different. I find it somewhat useless as a talking point. We can have opposite policies or behaviors that can be justified as love. Too abstract to be meaningful. #edchat
A friend commented, “Yeah, I’d use as much tech as possible to make my life easier.” Yes, but no. Tech makes life easier, but the real reason to use it is preparing learners for the #21stCentury world they live in. Educate for the bigger picture!#edtech#edchat
What a great read for teachers who want to go gradeless, but can't just stop recording grades (school/district policy). Tons of practical advice/resources, check it! #edchat#restorehumanityhttps://t.co/sDOtSquYAQ
When we see students struggle with an exercise, it’s natural to want to help them, but there’s an important difference between “just-in-case” and “just-in-time” support. Learn more, here: @thestrokeofluck#edchat#K12https://t.co/2rlAGr9ba5
A friend commented, “Yeah, I’d use tech too to make my life easier. “ Yes, but no. Tech can make Ts tasks easier, but the real reason is to prepare learners for the #21stCentury world they live in. Educate for the bigger picture! #edtech#edchat
Who should grade student's work? Humans or computers? Teachers remain skeptical as more states move towards robo-graders.

Well, I think they end up being a forgotten by-product because we assume we'll just do them. But these things are either overshadowed by another $$$ overwrought plan we've been handed. Or we just forget the steps are this simple. Or both. #edinnovate#innovation#edchat

I wonder sometimes...do we spend so much time teaching how to be a problem solver that we have forgotten how to solve problems? I see it all the time in workshops and conferences: Ts looking to a program to solve their struggles.

Two people complaining together rarely make one another feel better. Perhaps the difference is...what is the purpose of the conversation?

Can someone @MarzanoResearch respond to the hundreds of replies to Bob’s ill-informed tweet? By the way, Education isn’t for sale...to a research company, a publishing company, or any other for-profit entity. @willrich45@rickwormeli2 any thoughts? #edchat#LeadLAP#TLAP

#Teachers can arrange for it and facilitate it, but they cannot hand it to students, or do it for them....though they can, and often do, steal it from them: that glorious thunderclap/lightbulb "AHA!" moment of understanding. #edchathttps://t.co/Z7WDxqsHaG
