How long did it take for the timetable renewal to happen? We’ve just gone through a massive review with an external company but it’s likely that nothing too major will happen next year. I think you’ve hit on something really important with the connection between time and philosophy. Now my wheels are spinnin…Read more

Doucet and I often have a conversation about how to encourage people to look for the research that supports their claims. And to examine the research that doesn’t. Or how to get people to be open-minded about what is best for the learner.

– Publishing
– Priorities

Thank you for sharing these ideas, Brandon and Eric. It’s amazing how sometimes just reframing with the right vocabulary can make a difference.

I’d love to chat about feedback at our next Face2Face. Using SE2R has really helped me refine what feedback I am giving a student and…Read more

Very impressive. I appreciate the singular points per post that allow me to reflect on my own practice more intentionally.

I’ve often been involved in the argument about my role as an educator at an independent school. I find myself caught in spats about what parents are paying for (entrance to…Read more

I appreciate that you have your students’ best interests at heart. They will intuitively know that and this will work for you in the long run. What I wondered, as I read through your predicament, was whether or not another teacher could ask the questions for you. Our learning strats teacher just asked groups of our identified kids about…Read more
