So hard to pick a favorite moment from this interview. Highlights:
1️⃣ The diff between "growth mindset" and "asset orientation."
2️⃣ The ways deficit orientations show up in the classroom.
3️⃣ What @ilana_horn would change if (when??) she's queen. 👑 teapaw.org/MTLShow/status/1531740…
🎧 New episode alert! @ilana_horn enters the lounge with @lockhartedu and @ddmeyer to discuss developing an asset orientation in teaching. Listen on your favorite platform now… and share your thoughts with us!
ALT An asset orientation is looking for students’ strengths and trying to work from those strengths as a basis for your teaching. A quote the latest episode of Math Teacher Lounge from Lani Horn.
I was saddened to learn that John Branford passed away. He was a deeply kind person with a special way of looking at the world through the lenses of learning.
I remain grateful for his mentoring and the opportunity to learn from him—as a professor, as one of my distinguished dissertation committee members, as someone who engaged in learning from whomever was the at water fountain. Thank you, John, for these gifts.
can't help but notice parallels in learning among Ss & Ts when they are given time, res, & support needed to meaningfully collaborate.
Also collaborating w/@ilana_horn & our Ts 15yrs ago (!) resulted in the most transformative learning experiences of my life, bar none.

omg... this is **EXACTLY** what it is.
I keep reading about burnout, and while there's some of that going on to some degree, the real trauma so many of us are experiencing is moral injury.

Similar to the clinical settings that are described, these issue are systemically cast by leadership in k12 and higher ed as a personal failure of resilience, or the real kicker, a lack of heart. Gaslighting at it's finest.
