Happy World Children's Day, the perfect day to hand the reigns to your students, to think about how much input they have in what they are learning, and to make it a point to value their voice and provide opportunities for them to use it.
Welcome to my blog. I share stories of educators from around the world. Hope you enjoy the jrney!
"My career has gone from a basement special education teacher without a single window in my room, to being an educator who is opening doors for people all over the world." Brett reached out to me with this incredible story of understanding student needs and helping them make connections where no one else has.
To celebrate a week full of exciting global education conversation, here's my round up of one of my favorite parts. In the true spirit of designing a global conference, Lucy Gray and Steve Hargadon have assembled an incredible lineup and have allowed for equity where other conferences do not.
As the world becomes increasingly more connected, it is our job as educators to help our students navigate this new terrain. But we can't begin to do that until we develop the skills ourselves. Find out how to make small steps to become a more globally competent educator.
How do you even begin to choose the best stories of a career in education spanning decades? My mentor and friend Cheryl does it here with her JRNEY through literature and technology.
How did I get here? I have often asked myself that question as I have gone about my adult life. Twists and turns based on seemingly small decisions have laid the groundwork for my life as it stands now and what lies ahead.
