Okay I’ll say it.
While ‘student led’ feels and sounds lovely, in reality it short-changes our students and is quite inefficient and plain inequitable. We need to stop falling for hype and lean into what works based on how learning actually happens.
This is a rubric page from my teacher evaluation. ‘Teacher-led’ receives the LOWEST possible score on the rubric 😵💫
My 6 year olds should mostly be teaching each other!?
