2016 Foundations Talk | 1:04:32 | All Grade Levels, General Classroom
Summary
There are many different cultural assumptions that creep unwelcomed into my classroom. Assumptions that actively confront many of my learning objectives are that: (1) answers are better than questions, (2) accuracy is better than beauty, and (3) education is synonymous with school. How can we combat these and woo our students to change? I want to start a conversation with educators about practical things I have tried and want to continue to explore as we move to cultivate virtuous lifelong learners.
