I’ve been thinking quite a bit as to what I want I’d like for this blog. Eventually, I’d like to see conversation with other professionals, that pushes my practice. I want this blog to serve as a reflective and informational tool for myself, other instructional leaders, educators and policy makers.
To accomplish this goal, I am going to start a series of regular features.
- Each Monday, I will post about a “hot topic” in American society and culture today and how that topic is impacting or reflected in our educational system. This series will typically focus on discrimination or injustice in our society today and how various schools are grappling with that topic.
- Each Thursday, I will post about a Best Practices in teaching. This could include features on increasing student engagement, strategies for increasing academic language or managing the paperwork necessary for assessment.
In both of these series, I hope that visitors and regular subscribers will comment and push our thinking so our practice can improve.
I look forward to your thoughts! I’m still slogging away down in Savannah!
