What a day @KravisTeaching! Started the day at Coffee with Colleagues discussing @EquityMaps, then paired up to map discussions in each other's classes. Ended the day debriefing observations and identifying core values with this incredible group of faculty new to @loomischaffee!

Book chat day @loomischaffee. PHI book = "Futureproof" by @kevinroose. Students were tasked with generating concrete things they could do for each of the 9 rules, plotting them on an Impact vs Feasibility graph, and then committing to do 2 specific ones.

10 years ago Barak Rosenshine published one of the most useful reviews of research into effective teaching ever written. It's a slam-dunk hit in the UK, but barely talked about in the USA. If you're a USA educator that has never heard of it, here it is: aft.org/periodical/american-…
"Creating that sense of being “needed,” however, is a challenge."nais.org/learn/independent-i… Students and faculty need to feel the importance of depending upon one another. Looking forward to @kravisteaching New Faculty Cohort @loomischaffee diving deep into this idea soon!
Thanks to the Alvord Center @loomischaffee @KravisTeaching for #placebasedlearning classroom set up! French scholars explored, collaborated, questioned, drew, and learned outdoors with their classmates. Extending the mind, by changing the space in which we learn @anniemurphypaul
Outstanding opportunity for @loomischaffee faculty to take a deep dive into Mind, Brain, & Education science with @gwhitmancttl. Educators as #brainchangers need to continue to grow our shared understanding of the adolescent brain. #neuroscience #professionalgrowth @TheCTTL
Continually learning with @TheCTTL !
Curious about Mind, Brain, and Education Science practices and how you might apply them to your teaching? Join us on Twitter Spaces this Thursday, June 24 at 7 p.m. EDT for a conversation with Glenn, Ian, and Academy translation group leaders. Follow us @thecttl and tune in!
