facts...we need to stop thinking that the goal is engagement for the sake of engagement... because the goal is LEARNING.

Such an important point! #rED25 @P_A_Kirschner

Classroom management is the foundation of teaching K-12. No curriculum or teaching method will work if the teacher can’t manage the class.

A 16 year old high schooler just ran 1:42.27. I have no words. This is the most impressive athletic feat in history. There are no superlatives. His performance makes high school Lebron look like nobody. Cooper Lutkenhaus take a bow.

If you’re a private coach and your athletes see progress… that’s like figuring out that water is wet. Your clientele is already motivated and the number of athletes you coach is limited. And yeah, you hopefully are also a knowledgeable coach. All a recipe for success.

What’s a coaching opinion you have that would have people like this?

"Averaging grades is the monster we have been given" 🎤🫳

Averaging grades is the monster we have been given and all of my responses to the previous question assume that system is in place.

"It's a form of holding students accountable, but it doesn't fix the problem." So so so excited for this conversation tomorrow with @Mr_Rablin on all things grading: minimum grades, averages, retakes, and late penalties (and grading overall) Lots to think about! 🤔

When it's about the grade more than the learning in the classroom, it's a problem. Similarly, when it's about the credit more than the learning, it's also a problem. (And this increasingly transactional nature of education? It's a problem.)

🚨 UPDATE: Minnesota ass*ssin Vance Boelter’s wife Jenny has been DETAINED after a traffic stop where authorities found a weapon, ammo, cash, and passports Jenny ALSO previously worked for Tim Walz. This story is getting weirder and weirder.

Uncomfortable convos are on the horizon, folks

You’re not the hero for giving out extra credit! Create assignments where students are pushed and then allow for growth opportunities in those skills. Don’t reward for attending school activities! There is no reason a student should have 133% in a course.

You’re not the hero you think you are when you let kids opt out of their learning, avoid correcting wrong answers, skip the “drudgeries” of repetition and practice, and improvise lessons to stoke your faulty notion of autonomy and creativity.



You forgot the not teaching part! Students need skills! (Summarization, inferencing, speaking in groups, presenting, and critical thinking put into writing) Students don’t need to do the same “activity” each week to earn points…that’s not teaching…

You’re not the hero you think you are when you let kids opt out of their learning, avoid correcting wrong answers, skip the “drudgeries” of repetition and practice, and improvise lessons to stoke your faulty notion of autonomy and creativity.

"There is a boy on the team. I will not be playing or participating in any part of this game." 15-year-old high school athlete Frances Staudt and her mother discuss the backlash she has faced for refusing to compete in a basketball game against an 18-year-old biological male.…


Completely agree with this!

You may remember spending hours after school doing homework. A lawmaker in California is hope to change that for the next generation of students in the state. trib.al/rF5cXoj

An over-reliance on compliance got us here. And it ain’t gonna get us out of here. Committing to learning instead of complying to teaching is the way. We can do better. #Project180

Instead of giving assignments and grades, try giving opportunities and support. No, they are not the same. Frames matter. We can do better. #Project180
