I’m looking forward to listening to the implementation phase of this plan. I have found Design Thinking works in so many parts of our curriculum that I have a burning desire to use it in every class! I resist. Barely. 🙂

Probably even more exciting for me is to explore how you track with google forms and docappender. They are both…Read more

Weighing in a little late to this conversation but absolutely fascinated by the sage advice of others. Talk about #thepowerofaskingaquestion!

Wow. Wow. You are a poster child for what cohort 21 is! A space to try new things, take risks, and realize your potential. That blog post celebrated all of those things. You took a ton of leaps!

What inspiring ideas you have! I can only imagine how fantastic that salad is going to be…grown with love, amazing intentions and acts of kindness for others! Please tweet out your salad adventures as I’d love to follow this plan as it grows. (I couldn’t help it. I needed one pun. I’m an English teacher. It’s in our blood.)…Read more

Like you, I’m often slipping ideas in right before the deadline too! (And clearly my comments on your blog as well! Hello? It’s Cohort 21 eve. Some things never change!)
