After reading Jenkins' article on stereotypes,it is clear to be aware of the diversity you're working w/(adults or students) &to ensure they're in a safe environment w/ you. You must also work to make sure stereotypes are eliminated& everyone is on an even playing field #edlr5402

This is so important in MANY ways, and for sure one of my goals as an administrator. Teachers do many amazing things, yet barely get first-hand recognition. #edlr5402
Administrators, be in the classrooms early and often this fall looking for the awesome things teachers are doing to brag on!

In "Rock My Soul" Hooks says, "Until the legacy of remembered & reenacted trauma is taken seriously, black America cannot heal". This is why we, as educators must ensure we're providing equity and justice within our classrooms & schools so that our students feel safe. #edlr5402

Hooks says,"The assumption that the poor are more in need of material help than of the resources to build healthy self-esteem is false."This is true for our staff& students too.w/o proper mental health, we cannot expect anyone to learn/teach/etc to their full potential. #edlr5402

On pg 83Jenkins says, "Targets of negative stereotypes could also simply avoid threatening situations by carefully conducting research on where to go to school, where to accept a job offer...." This is so backwards & society should work to eliminate this as a whole. #edlr5402

I agree, Mislal! The chain reaction is clear, yet often times not provided to this level. #EDLR5402

If we want our students to engage in rich, creative learning experiences that lead to mastery, then we must provide educators with rich, creative learning experiences that lead to mastery. (Calvert, 2016, p.10)

Totally, Y'Isiah! The learning process has to go both ways and our staff has the capability to teach us things too! #EDLR5402

We are reminded by @thelearningloop that teacher agency for professional learning has a continuum. It may take years to shift the culture of professional learning. Any small steps are important to take! #EDLR5402

Great point, Jordan! Personalization is key to higher engagement! This takes much planning and knowing your staff. #EDLR5402

"there is not one right way...the most effective approaches to adult PL are personalized. they meet teachers when and where they are...and help them achieve real growth." So many great takeaways from last night with @thelearningloop. #EDLR5402
