Did you know almost every culture has a version of Cinderella? The story of “Tam and Cam” comes from Vietnam. #RepresentationMatters

6 simple rules for a pedagogy of voice: 1. Talk less, smile more 2. Questions over answers 3. Ritualize reflection and revision 4. Make learning public 5. Circle up 6. Feedback over grades #StreetData

When our grading system creates a mental purgatory between crippling fear of failure and obsessive quest for perfection… we’ve lost the plot. Instead, what if our grading system could increase positive risk-taking, self-awareness and well-being? It’s possible.

A reminder to #bced (everyone?) that competencies & content are not a binary choice. Competencies are about thinking, but you have to think about something. Competencies without content = fluff. Content without competencies = trivia. Competencies with content = 21C thinking
