Just introduced myself to presenter @shevtech fellow vermonter! Excited to learn from her this am about building resilience and holding hope @ascd#Empower18#traumainformed classrooms
Giving children access to television and cell phones as an ALTERNATIVE to love, play and entertainment..seriously limits their creativity and imagination! Exercise and peaceful stimulation allows optimal growth of their sensory motor skills! @ASCDconf#Resilience#Empower18
Executive coaching is part of the fabric of corporate leadership development; it should be a major component of school leadership development as well. #edLeadersMatter#Empower18
So far not off to a great start @ASCD#Empower18 after having to pay to have my winter coat checked in BOSTON of all places and now am waiting on easily a 500+ line for EXPRESS check in. Snarky convention staff aren’t helping either. #teachersplan
W/ Emily Peters&Jen Beville @Student Agency: Client Designer Relationship sounds like an exciting way to consider collaboration between classes or groups #ASCD#Empower18
Future thinking is not about continuous amplification of the known and reiteration of best practices…but allowing your leadership to exist in uncertainty and the unknown. Creating space to percolate and incubate next practices. #ASCD18#Empower18
So excited to begin my day at #Empower18 Warning: my Twitter feed will be taken over through Monday! Excited to share my learning with you #PrincipalsinAction
All checked in and ready for my first session at #Empower18. As an alternative educator, I work regularly with students who have experienced trauma and I am always seeking out new tools to help them overcome.
The reward for learning is the ability to solve challenges ahead with a tool that's not available to those who didn't seize the opportuniy. @INeLearn@ASCDconf@ASCD#Empower18
I wish I could thank whoever I stole this idea from because it was AMAZING. One right answer earned them one straw and one piece of tape. Tallest tower won. It was engaging and great to recognize different strengths of all students. #iteachmath#MTBoS

Learning about change leadership from @DouglasReeves at @ascd#empower18 My tweeting may be limited- “the pen is greater than the laptop” and I’m using the great @ASCDconf Reflection Guide
Before you begin talking about what "awesome" looks like - you have to have a "culture that fosters learning for all." -Fullan @thomasdaccord#Empower18
Observation =/= evaluation. "I'm not saying it's broken. I'm saying we can do better. Non evaluative instructional coaching." @iCoachRandolph#Empower18
Redefining literacy - Literacy is no longer just about reading traditional text. It is about reading ANYthing (traditional or digital). #Empower18@thomasdaccord
"Leading with a bunch of people following you does not necessarily make you a leader. Sometimes it means you just need to step out of their way." @iCoachRandolph#Empower18
"You can't be good to others if you're not good to yourself." I'm in an #empower18 session with @LaVonnaRoth, @FMGriek, & Lisa Nolan learning about the #wholechild. Frustration. Burnout. Attrition. It's Time To Address The National Teacher Shortage https://t.co/wYfVqvgZFC
Inquiry is not just for students, but teachers, too! So true. Also, having colleagues to collaborate with when implementing #inquiry in classrooms really helps. #empower18
Educators at @ASCD#Empower18 in Boston! Join @PDBrunn for his session TODAY "Building The Collaborative Classroom: Deepening Teacher Practice and Engaging Students Through Collaborative Literacy." See you there!
Welcome to ASCD Empower 2018! While you're here check out Read Naturally's research-based reading interventions for all ages and abilities. Stop by booth 1736 to see how we can help your struggling readers. #empower18
For decades Educators have been teaching kids how to organize their thoughts, frame their ideas, speak in public, connect with the community. (Grad. requirements). We are seeing impact now. We are getting what we hoped for! Love them. Be proud of them. Listen to their voices!
"You can't be good to others if you're not good to yourself." I'm in an #empower18 session with @LaVonnaRoth, @FMGriek, & Lisa Nolan learning about the #wholeeducator. Frustration. Burnout. Attrition. It's Time To Address The National Teacher Shortage https://t.co/wYfVqvgZFC
Sedentary children bombarded with chaotic sensory stimulation (little play and violent video images) are coming to school with significant developmental delays which affect achieving basic literacy skills necessary for success! @ASCDconf#Satchat#Resilience#Empower18

Ss using technology - still about pedagogy and Blooms! Are Ss using technology to ultimately learn at higher levels (or demonstrate learning at higher levels)? #Empower18
@elemitrt@emc7x@kjdoubet among the amazing VIRGINIA education leaders presenting to an international audience today at ASCD's #Empower18 . Proud of your work, grateful for your friendship.

Great job people BUT the ONLY WEAPON that can change things is your VOTE. REPUBLICANS WILL NEVER EVER VOTE FOR REAL GUN LAWS. They are OWNED BY THE NRA. November 2018 will be your chance. #VoteThemOut#VoteDemocratsIn#Empower18
"How do we entice teachers? Not just new teachers, but our veteran teachers?" Teachers must see validity in the program. Teachers' needs change every day. @iCoachRandolph#Empower18
Tacoma Public Schools HR team goes on a field trip to go see all the buildings and neighborhoods they serve to celebrate the whole child and adult. I say DO field trip some time soon. @BravesSupt#Empower18@ASCDconf
#Empower18 When asked to describe the purpose of education, we hope to have 25 year olds who are... See attached. How do we get here? Focus on SEL. @iirpgradschool
Do you have students involved in designing the learning task that will demonstrate their levels of learning? They may have more ownership of learning if they do! #Empower18#studentvoice
A decade ago, Reno NV cut killing in half & more than doubled adoptions, achieving a live release rate above 90% for the first time. And they have done it every year since. Here's how they did it and your city can, too: https://t.co/yb2dSzBmdt
Climate is the attitude of the organization. Culture is the personality, “how we do it around here.” Both are in your head. A healthy culture requires collective ownership and takes time to change, but leadership matters. #cultureEd#Empower18@stevegruenert@ToddWhitaker

Students still have to "write" when you have them do alternative learning projects - it is just that the "essay" does not become finished product. Open up the audience for students! #Empower18

Lessons that include checks for understanding are about ten times as cost effective as reducing class size, add between 6-9 months of learning per year

This morning I'm attending a session led by educators from @CuyahogaESC. We are talking about poverty & specifically examining poverty in Ohio. Thank you @ASCD@ASCDconf for bringing teacher leaders & other education stakeholders together to solve problems like this. #Empower18
When Ss don't understand content in a chapter of your textbook....have your students recreate the chapter. They teach the content through video. pictures, etc. #Empower18

ThxU @DrBiden for sharing you words of inspiration regarding #teaching LOVED hearing about you marking papers on the floor of AirForce2. Truly #1ofus@ASCDconf#Empower18
The 1st Teacher and former 2nd Lady, speaks of her experiences as an educator and reminds us our first priority is to “raise up” not put down our students and continue to lead through the chaos. #Empower18#momsasprincipals
Let’s think about what this looks like... “We need to replicate a district as a classroom.” Dr. Chang, Boston Public Schools Superintendent #Empower18@SuptChang
"Every teacher here sees the potential in every student in their classroom. I think that's why we're teachers; we see the potential in everyone." @DrBiden#Empower18@ASCDconf
“The volume of a classroom should not be an indicator of the quality of the teacher. Loud classrooms are not necessarily managed poorly and quiet ones don’t indicate learning is always happening."
Quote from @codebreakerbookhttps://t.co/o1XpOAdYWD
Inspiring talk by @DrBiden (a lifelong teacher) to open the ASCD #Empower18 conference. “Teaching is more than a job to me, it’s a calling.” Really wish she were our First Lady right now. Just saying. 😉 #ascd@ASCD@JoeBiden#edchat#education
Dr. Jill Biden. Educators are all mentors. Seeing the potential in each of them is your legacy. It’s our duty to make sure our kids lives matter to them and to us. #empower18.
Among the student stories that @DrBiden has shared: refugees, abuse victims, and single moms living out of their cars. Absolutely amazing.
Still some educators find shifting from Microsoft Word to Google Docs to be "a struggle."
@ASCD#Empower18#perspective#CheckYourPrivilege
Supporting the #wholechild means shifting mindsets, bias and privilege. Honoring who are ss are and where they come from takes building relationship and lots of work #Empower18

Catechists: What impact do you have on your students' life?
History teachers prepare students to face the present by the past.

Bring your passions to the classroom to share with students and build relationships. Ask “What are all the different ways that can look?” when discussing best practices. No two classrooms are alike. @ASCD#Empower18

@ptritter on conversations about best practices “Let’s ask ‘What are the ways that can look?’ instead of ‘What does that look like?’ Children are different, classrooms are different, the learning will look different.” @ASCD#Empower18@BostonSchools
Successful practices as educators: instead of asking what does that look like, ask in what ways can that look? We are all unique as are our students, we need to create our own mold instead of trying to fit. Own your identity. #empower18#ASCD18

Zeroes for missing assignments? Sorry, you're not teaching algebra. You're teaching work ethic. Zeroes for missing work is fine. But not when you're scoring them 6 or 7 times for each completed assignment out of 100 point scales.

Problem: Combining academic performance & work habits. GRADE VALIDITY. If the standard says (X) and you're marking points off or adding them for non-academic things that are NOT X, then you're messing with the validity of the assessment.

Simon Sinek reminds us that there is a difference between listening and waiting for your turn to speak. The one doing the talking is the one doing the learning. #Empower18
'Punishing' late work w/ reduced grades or zeros distorts grades. Instead, treat the behaviour similar to other misbehaviours w/in the school. What happens when students break other rules and expectations? Treat late work similarly. Via Brian Stack at @ASCD#Empower18. #sblchat
Designing engagement....”design” is an interesting word. It implies intentional and purposeful....which further implies planning. PLAN to build a relationship. Who don’t you know well? Change that, purposefully! #empower18

Don't create more averages by averaging averages! (Eg: avg of term 1, 2, 3, 4, and final exam). Instead, use a rolling grade. Via Brian Stack at @ASCD#Empower18. #sblchat

1. Grades are communication of achievement not compensation for compliance
2. We don’t grade practice

@NancyFrey Use learning walks to ask students what they are learning vs. what they are doing. ‘Doing’ can reinforce compliance vs. retention. Lessons become about tests or putting writing in a folder in order to “help us later in life” #ambiguity#empower18
When walking through an engaged classroom, don’t ask a student “what are you doing.” Ask, “what are you learning?” “Doing” implies compliance. #empower18

Can your students answer these three questions each day?
- What am I learning today?

Listening to the students from Parkland and across the country today is a reminder of what is possible when our future is in the right hands, and when we match inspiration with determination.

“We accept passive learning because we have an issue with tradition, we have an ego problem, and a problem with a passive aggressive culture.” @jonbergmann#empower18@ASCDconf
Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of the horrible attack in France yesterday, and we grieve the nation’s loss. We also condemn the violent actions of the attacker and anyone who would provide him support. We are with you @EmmanuelMacron!
Obama Administration legalized bump stocks. BAD IDEA. As I promised, today the Department of Justice will issue the rule banning BUMP STOCKS with a mandated comment period. We will BAN all devices that turn legal weapons into illegal machine guns.

#Empower18 when Hitler disarmed Germany in the wake of the brutality and gun violence of World War I, he did so in the name of child safety. Let us keep a sharp-vigilant-eye on history instead of hysteria. Mobocracy is not solution to stop evil. Hitler organized youth 2 destroy

“How do I bring fun back? Its relationships that really matter! Kids don’t care how much you know until they know how much you are” - Erin Klein #Empower18
Listening to the students from Parkland and across the country today is a reminder of what is possible when our future is in the right hands, and when we match inspiration with determination.
School climate is sometimes as easy to change as standing inside or outside a building based on who pulled a fire alarm. But school culture is the reason why someone thought to pull the fire alarm in the first place. And that takes a lot more time to change. #Empower18
Help boost engagement: Instead of focusing on "what" topics we are teaching and "how" we are teaching them, focus on the "why" and make sure the Ss know it. Via @E_Sheninger@ASCD#Empower18
“We help to create and develop teaming among our teachers. It’s important that the leaders spend regular time talking with teachers about what’s effective so conversations exist about instruction.” @SnodgrassHLHS#empower18

"What's your point B?" Do we always think about our point B, our vision for what we are aiming toward when we implement a new initiative in schools? Think about it. @AlisaSimeral@educationhall#empower18@ASCDconf
Education must go back to the old old school where it was about apprenticeships and mentoring, where relationships mattered and it was individualized. -@jonbergmann#Empower18
Instead of being motivated by grades, imagine kids being motivated by learning. Via @E_Sheninger at @ASCD#Empower18
(Side note: yet another reason to implement standards-based teaching and grading.)
D - Give direction...provide some examples for action - don't write the action plan for the person you are coaching - instead give direction for beginning. #Empower18

@Scholastic Harry Potter to me means adventure and keeping magi alive in me as an adult. It means for a little while you have an escape. It means wonder. #Empower18
Thank you @E_Sheninger and @thomascmurray for an inspiring presentation at #Empower18 - “You can’t just want change. You need to lead and be the change. ... It all comes down to relationships.” #LT8Keys
Attending @ASCD#Empower18 is like putting your brain through an intellectual swirly, but instead of being covered in questionable water...you are doused with knowledge. #truth#myheadrightnow#soexcited
Absolutely...the best there is! And in all seriousness, the session was worth the trip by itself. Everything else is just a bonus. Thanks @ToddWhitaker & @stevegruenert! #Empower18

@CEO_NCCA, @ToddWhitaker, @stevegruenert
I wish I could be at @ASCD#Empower18 to learn from inspiring education leaders @ToddWhitaker and @EricJensenBrain about how to empower educators by understanding people and their brains for authentic impact. What a great conference to learn from powerful #eduleaders!
Congrats to one of our winners today, @rjaskar! There will be more opportunities to win tomorrow at ASCD. Keep a look out for those prompts! #Empower18#CreativeTeachingMatters

.@RepScottPerry on omnibus bill: "We spent money on things that we told the American people we wouldn't, and we didn't spend money on the things that we said we were going to fund."
Love the session.
Buy the book.
Read.
Repeat.
Thanks @bstackbu I think this is exactly what I need to read with my admin to get going on grading reform! #Empower18#ASCD18
We are thrilled to see so many smiling faces join us today at the #Empower18 Harvard Networking Reception and we look forward to welcoming you to a future program!
"They're all out there right now. Because you gave them a life raft, a lighthouse, a key--because you gave them an education." --@DrBiden, former Second Lady & teacher, at @ASCD#Empower18 This is what teachers do. Prepare students to flourish in this world. #powerful#evident
So thrilled to have met the authors of Total Participation Techniques 2.0 today! We ❤️ the book and can’t wait to continue to use with the teachers in Philly! #Empower18@ASCDconf@SDPtchnglrng@PersidaHimmele
So my craft well not because of what we made but because they learned to not give up just because something seems hard. Yes I had to preach today. @sobenyree@UPL_Library#empower18#WeCanDoIt
Session participants engage in a critical examination of Hattie’s effect sizes to understand how leadership decisions communicate #leadershipmindset@stefhite@ASCD@empower18
Best thing about #QAnon is it showed that bad things in the world are by design and were done on purpose. They were never an inevitability. It means that the world will blossom and thrive when the thumb is finally lifted from the scale and the perpetrators snuffed out forever.
IL ASCD board members, along with CEO Deb Delisle, are all smiles as they receive their award for best communications and publications. #Empower18@ASCDconf@ASCDcommunities
[Best of 2018] It’s urgent that we acknowledge that rarely if at all, do standardized tests address student’s ability to self-assess...or work collaboratively and effectively with a team of peers. @LatoyaDixonhttps://t.co/iqQtfTRx5V#Edadmin#Empower18#Suptchat
#QAnon post 953 on Mar 17 2018 15:03:41 They think you are STUPID.

Typical leftist speak.
Only they have rights.
The 1st ammendment only applies to them.
Research is forbidden.
Do not oppose me.
You're a fascist for thinking freely.
If this doesn't change, we're heading for a very ugly day.
Thank you @hgse Harvard Education for a wonderful reception with new friends @laur_santini and old friends #empower18#edmodolove Great people doing great things👍
Didn't get to catch this crew yet at #Empower18? Go to booth #1553 or the Successful School Showcase at the Westin Ballroom B tomorrow. Learn more about how an #EinsteinFellows18 spends their 11 months in DC. @ASCD
So far, pretty impressed with @ASCD#Empower18 conference. The sessions I attended were of very high quality and much less focused on vendors and "stuff" than other conferences. Looking forward to tomorrow
Who wants to make a catapult tomorrow at 8 AM? Come learn how to make one and how you can apply STEAM across all subjects! #Empower18#ASCD18@geekyteach
I am at Doug Reeves house - invited to Doug Reeves house - because he likes to gather “writers and future authors to his home as a way to get people together to talk about education. He considers it a part of his legacy.”
WOW! #Empower18#humbled
So many great moments today at @ASCD#Empower18 and plenty to ponder when I get home: Competency Based Learning, Digital Badging and Leveraging Relationships. I’m thrilled to be here with @AEF_Program and looking forward to Day 2!
7 yrs ago my @TeachForAmerica 2011 corps “theme song” was Man in the Mirror. Always seems to pop on at important times in my career- last days of school, random midnights on the Hill, & right now as I sit in the shuttle back from #Empower18. #MakeThatChange#OneDay
If white privilege exists, it’s name is David Hogg. His little self important speech and rallying fist pump today certainly does seem a little Hitler-ish... if Hitler was a soy eating, skinny jean wearing, male cheerleader in high school.
Paul McCartney speaks out against Gun Violence
Does anyone else find it interesting that this guy is in several photos standing close to Paul - armed security?
Keep virtue signalling Paul

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Home reflecting on all the amazing knowledge I gained today and how to put it into practice. @E_Sheninger session on BrandED was my top pick of the day. Excited for what tomorrow will bring @ASCD#empower18
I archived the craigslist paged where Soros organizers were soliciting paid protestors but twitter is censoring most of the archive links http://archive (dot) is/FA56h
Here's just one of many of the Craigslist ads where Soros Organizers were recruiting PAID protestors for #MarchForOurLives! Don't expect the MSM to talk about this https://t.co/qxpSOVBDt2
In @CityOfBoston for #Empower18 and spent evening walking around. Fascinating City. So diverse and the peacefulness of #BostonCommons is tremendous. Kids, families, adults, couples All enjoying

Watching Freedom Writers before hearing @ManuelScott speak tomorrow at the @ASCDconf#Empower18.
This quote resonated with me today:
“But even an ordinary secretary or a housewife or a teenager can, within their own small ways, turn on a small light in a dark room.”
~Miep Gies
The FBI sure found that bomber quick who was terrorizing the Liberal city of Austin. Las Vegas shooting investigation would have been over in a week if the people were gunned down at a Barbra Streisand concert. It's dangerous to be a Trump supporter.
Watch: The Gun Control Marchers Expose The Fact That They Know NOTHING About Guns‼️
@charliekirk11 is verbally assault for asking a simple question: What is an assault rifle?

The Deep State is behind every criminal network on Earth and some Liberals think it is better if they are the only ones who have guns.
Are you all suicidal or just brainwashed?

Great meet up with @am_gallagher to talk through a common passion on #designthinking - can’t wait to see you tomorrow morning at my session! 😉 #EMPOWER18
Please let me know how I can help. I’d love to set up a free call with you to share about virtual coaching, your needs and possible next steps. #empower18
Today was a whirlwind of a daygot to hang out with over 8k educators, hear @DrBiden speak, trended on @Twitter, and then met the @romanticsrock. If this is only day one of #Empower18, I can't wait to see what's in store tomorrow.
Students who are college and career ready share these characteristics. Do your HW assignments and policies help students become college and career ready? #Empower18
Going through my presentation one more time before Sunday morning’s presentation on #designthinking - would love to share how we design for change! #Empower18@ASCDconf
I shall add Dr. Jill Biden to my list of women I look up to- especially when I think I can’t do something. She was just the second lady while teaching at the college level. And making changes around the country. Who is first on my list you ask? @glenda_cowell#empower18
Still in awe of @DrBiden’s keynote & empowered by her life choices & strength. In her early 20’s she married the most powerful man in the first state & chose to craft a life full of career achievements and family. #empower18
#Empower18 Check out @JanaBethFrancis panel discussion on sharing @DCPSKidsFirst journey to “Making the Mark for Your Students: How to Choose Curriculum and Implement It to Drive Success”

“Why educators shouldn’t yell at scholars”- Great share by Jensen at ASCD Conference today #Empower18 (remember: Verbal Abuse is still ABUSE and that is someone’s baby😉👍🏽)
Gabriel Rshaid experienced the WONDER of zSpace today at our ASCD exhibit in Boston. Gabriel is an author, educator, and ASCD Board Member from Venezula. It was great meeting him today! #ASCD#Empower18#zSpace#WONDERhttps://t.co/ERf3er7D81
Ashley McLellan - a MastersED Associate - is at the ASCD Empower 18 conference. Tweet @ashmac205 to speak with her about impact in schools and how she can help you!
@ASCD#Empower18
Honored to have had the opportunity to present @ASCDconf , thanks for having me and letting me share my ideas with my peers. And hats off to all of the other presenters y’all were awesome #empower18

The CDC says over 4,600 kids commit suicide EACH YEAR because of bullying.
I think it would be far more beneficial to have a march against bullying than having a march to take our 2nd Amendment away.
But there is no political agenda involved in that.
#MarchForOurLives
Gun control advocates yesterday:
“We aren’t looking to take away all of your guns.”
Gun control advocates today:
“This should be a gun-free world. Period.”
#MarchForOurLives
Remember how big the Women’s March was? Remember who won the election, though?
Y’all - don’t worry about America’s next generation. For every David Hogg, there’s a thousand more kids like myself and @KyleKashuv.
KA CHOW - According to multiple research studies (that I read because I’m “a nerd”), Generation Z is projected to be the most conservative generation since WW2. Good luck, my friend. #MAGA
