It's all about how we recover from failure, not about the failure itself!

It’s not just students who need Maslow. Teachers need: 1) feel safe / supported 2) emotional connection/ relationships 3) feel respected 4) appreciation 5) value within the team 6) autonomy/ flexibility 7) take time for self and family

Not enough of us got a pedagogy that included empathy, much less love, in our schools. It's easy to blame standardized tests, much harder to see how the *way* we teach is just as important as *how* we teach. Let's do better.

Love this! β™₯️
I find this quote very interesting, because using kind words is very inclusive and empowering which allows for mutual trust and reciprocal communication to occur more freely within the classroom. #EdTechAtLATech

What are the footprints you're leaving behind, #EdTechAtLATech?
19 Oct 2023
Our digital footprint (the places we go online) influences what we see and also who we connect with. Students will reflect on all the kinds of information left behind when online and how it forms their footprint. #FCPSdigcit @CommonSenseEd, #digcitweek #FCPSpog
