If your students are like mine they have a hard time seeing how concepts can be applied in life. This is how ChatGPT can help your students see how functions are used and give you an amazing assignment. INSTRUCTIONS ON ATTACHED POST . #teachertwitter #edtech #ChatGPT

The great failure of education is that we’ve taught students to fear failure–that greatness never fails, and so we’ve limited the potential of students because they are afraid to push their limits and fail instead of failing in order to see what they might succeed at. #education

Can AI create empathy? THIS IS WHAT DYSLEXIA LOOKS LIKE!! One of my students today, "NOW YOU UNDERSTAND!" And you know what---I do. Below is the prologue for Romeo & Juliet #dyslexia #education #edtech #teach

On hard days it’s a blessing to work directly across the hall from my bestie/wife. She kills it daily!

Does anyone else feel that the push for teachers to focus on relationships is partly because schools don’t have the resources to deal with student mental health?

I taught with an amazing team of 10 English teachers when I first started. Any one of them could be a teacher of the year. 13 years later I'm the only one still left in the field.
One of the most concerning stats we’ve seen on @TeacherTapp in some time. In 2018, when asked if they went back in time would they still train to be teachers, 42% strongly agree. Today, it’s just 23%. An astonishing collapse in a few years.

Please STOP calling teaching your "calling"😫. Politicians hear that and think that you will stick around with low pay. You're a professional, call yourself a professional. Professionals get paid their worth. #teaching #edcoach #TEACHers #schools

I'm a little shocked at the number of schools who's goal is to get kids "college ready", but haven't ever talked to any professors about what that's looking like, or what weaknesses students have when they come in. #education #TEACHers #teach #college

EDUCATION WILL NOT IMPROVE until we have a goal, or a measure of what success looks like in education. Today, have unfulfilled teachers because there's no way to measure success. Right now we have 5 ways to nowhere 1/2. #teachers #education #learn #TEACHers #ETcoaches #schools
