In Eigen planeet eerst laat @roxanevaniperen overtuigend zien waarom onze democratische systemen falen in het aanpakken van urgente vraagstukken zoals de klimaatcrisis. Wat kan dit betekenen voor het onderwijs?

Knowledge grows when you ask stupid questions. Stupidity grows when you don't ask anything.

What would you add to the list?
☀️ A-B-C-D's of year-end (or semester-end) reflection, via educator @mrswendymturner:
ALT Handmade chart with the heading "End of Year Reflection for Teachers." The chart lists four questions: What did I accomplish? What boundary did I keep? How was I creative? What will I continue to do next year? Beneath each question is a row of Post-it notes with answers.

Formative assessments—quick learning “pulse checks” during and after lessons—can be a powerful way to improve student learning and inform next instructional steps.
The best part? They can be fun and fast!

Questioning one of the learning capacities (learning muscles) at #thelearningpowerapproach #display #learning
How do you support deep thinking for your students? K Collier says, “One helpful strategy is providing students a visual that matches with question type and depth.” Dig into her anchor chart...
🌸 Surface level questions are quick to answer (think multiple choice or fill in the blank) and can be supported with easy to find text evidence.
🌸 Deep level questions are more complex (think constructed response) and require students to process the text through inferencing, analyzing, and critical thinking.
ALT Anchor chart divided into two columns. On the left is "Surface," with a drawing of a flower. Underneath are bullet points: "who, where, when, what—quick answers you can easily spot in the text." On the right is "Deep," with a drawing of a flower with roots that extend under the ground. Underneath are bullet points: "why, how—answers that require you to dig deep in the text."

Enkele brugklassen maakten bij mijn collega een remake van de Guernica van Picasso 🎨! Vier leerlingen elk een stuk van het originele ontwerp. Daarna samengevoegd.

The key to avoiding disappointment is not to lower your expectations. It’s to broaden your goals.
It's not aiming high that sets you up for a let-down. It's fixating on ideal while failing to identify good enough.
Happiness lies in the range between aspirational and acceptable.

The difference between a good student and a great one is that a good student is concerned more about the outcome while a great one is fascinated by the process of learning.

The measure of your intelligence is not your ability to acquire knowledge but how you handle uncertainty and navigate through it and behave when you don't know what to do.

The problem is not people being uneducated.
The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught

Your intelligence cannot be measured by a number. It is defined by your willingness to learn, solve problems and try new things. You are more than just a number. Develop your skills. Share your brilliant ideas. Your skills are more valuable than your grades.
