Great summation of @KristinASimmers session on Saturday. She’s such an excellent voice for the field of Mind Brain Education!
My takeaways from @KristinASimmers' session at #EducationFest on adaptive expertise in teaching: Teaching is a blend of science & art that demands flexibility & an understanding of both the content & context. Empowering educators means equipping them to pivot & adapt effectively.
