Love hearing about your work and philosophy, CJ. Looking forward to more collaboration.
If you are looking for ways to authentically incorporate global citizenship at your school, and collaborate with schools with the same vision, I highly recommend the @ICGlobalCitizen certificate!

So much to this. And they know we care when they know us. There is no substitute for trust and relationship building, and oftentimes that is a direct result of vulnerability. Thanks @trev_mackenzie. Just read one of your books provided by a colleague very recently.
I really cannot say enough about reflection, demonstration, and celebration. There is no perfect way to do this, but sharing and celebrating OKRs with your team or in the classroom is a great way to remember how much amazing stuff WE are all doing. Keep up the great work.

Social media fuels this both in and outside of professional context.
So proud of this community and these students for rallying for Turkey and Syria. #KISpride
Unbelievable. Here for you l, @inspirecitizen2. Hang in there.
This really hits home right now. Thanks for sharing @ronniecharrier
If you haven’t read this very vulnerable piece by @molly_knight, take a few minutes today to do that. And then share it. #EndTheStigma

@Cheesecake when it’s your wife’s birthday, her name is Linda, and there’s no Factory in Korea… you get contacts to fly in fudge cake from Hong Kong. Held together pretty well! Big thanks @DLovelin
AI bringing Tupac to the classroom. Thanks @cho_liz and @mcelroy23 for showing me historical figures. What a cool tool to vary the way students might get to know a poet/artist/author. There’s beauty even in the hardships, everyone. Have a great one.
So much #KISpride to take 14 amazing humans to connect with other young changemakers in the first of what I hope can become regular semiannual conferences across the peninsula focused on service and leadership. @inspirecitizen2 let’s go!

Thanks for some new ideas. I have ss using need journals as a way to record their noticing of the needs in the world around them. They use those in free inquiry to start the research phase of service learning. I like adding their emotional response to the need they noticed.

Makes me really happy to hear that. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for always showing up for them.

2/2 skills way more valuable than any grade, and I’d argue that writing about that in the essay or speaking to it in an interview is what gets you into your university of choice. The only sad part is that the grade is necessary to get the interview.

1/2: My high school elective rooted in the service learning cycle is pass/fail. When asked, ss said they take more risks because it’s pass/fail (we only co-create our rubrics with a proficient and exemplary column). Overcoming challenge, reflecting, refining, and action are life
@maggiesmithpoet Big shout from Seoul, South Korea, from a fellow Buckeye (St. Charles grad) who grew up just outside of Bexley. Teaching grade 9 English and using First Fall with my students. Schiller Park brings back memories :) Wondering if we can connect!
