Before assigning any activity, ask these questions:
* is it engaging?
* is there a clear connection to the real world?
* have I accounted for any barriers that will inhibit learning?
If you answer Yes to all, then launch. If you answer No to any, you must reset.

'If' a student learns is more important to me than 'when.'

"A lot of our kids don't see themselves in the curriculum, so they disconnect right away... We need for the adults to shift the conversation... We need to work on student engagement." I'm learning in an #edcampwake session about equity.
