Don't need to change kids need to change schools. Kids learn naturally but they have problems with education and with school. System is failing the students not the student failing the school. @SirKenRobinson keynote at #NSBA19

Sitting with neuroscientists today who study fact retrieval & brain connectivity. They are clear - math facts are important but best ways to get them are through multiple representations, depth & meaning, not rote memorization @dylanwiliam youcubed.org/evidence/fluenc… – at Stanford, CA

Been thinking a lot about this quote from my friend @ajjuliani - "what are you doing for students that they can be doing for themselves?" #innovatorsmindset

There is tremendous fear of change in schools. It’s easier not to change, but that’s not best for kids. – at Shady Hollow, TX

At one point in time Sears was THE leader. Over time, the world changed. Drastically. Some businesses evolved, others died. Schools - WAKE UP. The insulation bubble to the outside world is about to pop. (Fortunately MANY schools GET IT and are crushing it for kids.)

Students can’t think outside the box if we are continually trying to fit them inside our rigid, controlled classrooms. #Education #teacher

Nobody is debating the importance of automaticity, what’s different is how we get there. It’s not about memorizing facts, it’s about relationships between facts. @ctfosnot #OAMELead

The more we focus on Producing (MC quizzes, timed tests, worksheets...), the more afraid our Ss will be of making mistakes. The more we focus on Learning (cooperative tasks, experiential learning...) the more our Ss will see mistakes as the process of learning. #atassess

In order for the roll out of digital devices to be truly effective a fully comprehensive digital citizenship program must be in place and reinforced in every grade and classroom. Fortunately @CommonSenseEd has you covered: bit.ly/2Oew94G #edchat #edtech
