Husband, father, #educator, #school administrator. Imagining #education and #edleadership focused on #equity, #personalization, and #servicelearning. In my spare time (whatever ...), I roast #coffee, do #leatherworking, #writing, and #reading, and tinker with #PKM (now #Obsidian, but an #Emacs #Orgmode ex-pat). I enjoy moody #photography, and #silentsunday. It's just me sharing my own thoughts here. I'm not representing any school or organization. Boosting doesn't signal endorsement/agreement.

Am using #GIS ( @qgis in particular) to offer insight into some #student trends ... attendance, achievement, all sorts of things. We started this with COVID to try to try to get ahead of outbreaks, but continue to explore other uses. For example, It's helped to place various supports in appropriate places within the community for students who may have transportation challenges. Any other interesting ideas for #schools and #education? @edutooters @edutooter

If the “riddle” of public #education in America is how to ensure a future that guarantees both individual liberty and collective success, then what do #schools need to do next? What is the immediate next level of work? What should we be doing that we’re not, and what should we stop doing? @edutooter @edutooters @edutooter #teachers

@dendari @edutooter @edutooters @edutooter Yes! Trust and empower schools to preserve the future rather than judge them by nationalist, competitive metrics that are always behind the curve.

America’s founders left us a riddle, and they saw #schools as the laboratory for cooking up a solution. #education #edutooters #teaching #learning @edutooter @edutooter https://schoolahead.today/blog/the-nation-needs-schools

In the US, and in have a tense common border. How do we radically as we also ensure collaboration within a community? It's been a tension since the Founding vision that we be a nation in which individual liberty ensures collective success. How else to do it but to view each person's differences as strengths rather than disadvantages toward solutions to common problems? @edutooter @edutooter

There’s undeniable science behind #teaching and #learning, but #progressives in #schools go through cycles of forgetfulness in an ongoing zeal to perfect the instruments. (I say that as a progressive.) Science requires inquiry, which requires curiosity, which requires engagement and relationship. #Teachers wield a humanity that includes, but does not end with, science in their craft. #education @edutooters @edutooter @edutooter

Popular discussion of the harm caused by guns focuses on deaths, overlooking non-fatal injuries. But for every kid in the U.S. who dies from a shooting, 2 more are treated for bodily harm.

Hello #Education friends! I'm working on a manuscript that describes philosophical foundations of #PublicEd in the US, describes how the enterprise went off the rails with misunderstanding of “#progressive” and more, and places #schools within the administrative state in the US (with a call to reinvent the work of that state so that it’s more person- and mission-centered). Thread continues …

#teachers #students @edutooters @edutooter

@jeffmoore@schoolahead.social avatar

@edutooters @edutooter The work then goes on to describe #StrategicPlanning and other practical protocols for aligning the work of #teachers and #students to a school's (and all of education’s) mission and goals. Particularly, I recommend "theory of action" as a path toward reinventing strategic planning and, thus, reinventing the work of schools.

First, does this sound interesting for education leaders?

Second, if so, what publishers would folks recommend?

Thoughts on this theory of action for public #schools in America? Based a bit on a famous #ThomasJefferson quote, and trying to break the logjam of #progressive #education and #neoliberal social efficiency squaring off for decades. @edutooter @edutooter

@jeffmoore@schoolahead.social avatar

10 years ago, my #equity theories of action revolved around attainment of standards: “all students will achieve at grade-appropriate levels.” Today, it’s all about #personalization: “all students will realize the promises of our mission toward their individual aspirations.” That feels like a proper and good evolution. #education #school #students @edutooters @edutooter
