Just because we are sending home packages, slides, videos, etc, don’t expect kids to engage like they would in the classroom. The classroom is a special place that cannot be replicated to its fullness online. It just can’t #personalopinion

Day 3: Q1. CREATIVITY & CONSTRAINTS. When we ask students, “ what do you want to learn?” it’s like staring at a blank canvas. I believe in choice, voice and agency- but within perimeters; give them the stimulus they may have not otherwise considered #LCIRCSD – at Regina, Saskatchewan
Day 1: “ What if learners are valued for their diverse talents and not just the traditional model of what’s considered smart?” What could this look like considering how much is centered around ELA & math. Do we value what can easily be reported? #LCIRCSD #rcsdconnect #RCSD_No81 – at Regina, Saskatchewan

“After twenty years, folks are starting to figure out that teachers were correct. ...the next time you propose an Awesome Idea for fixing schools and professional educators tell you why your idea is not great, listen to them.”

"Access doesn't come pre-packaged with understanding." I appreciate the author dispelling literature that assumes students are digital natives. It's like saying kids ride in vehicles are their lives, so they should be able to "just know" how to drive. #RCSDconnect #RCSDtech
Best birthday card from my teaching partner, connected educator and friend @MrsRyhorchuk ! #Rcsdconnect – at Regina, Saskatchewan
If I was given an extra hour I would spend it on collaborative culture with my colleagues. I’d also always take that extra hour to dive deeper into creative, inquiry-based projects with students. #RCSDConnect #innovatormindsetRCSD – at Regina, Saskatchewan
