Just for the ASKing!
The latest issue of Just for the ASKing! titled “What Do We Want from Our Students? What Do Our Students Want from Us?“is now available. WOW! The words of wisdom that Bruce wrote this month are really provocative. This should be required reading for every single teacher in the country! Put it in the inboxes/hands of all team leaders so that can share it in collaborative learning team and department or grade level team meetings.

Professional Practices for the 21^st Century Leader
The latest issue of Professional Practices titled “Once More with Feeling: The Power of Student-Led Conferences” is now available. Marcia makes a strong case for us to move beyond what “we have always done” to what we “should have always done.” What were we thinking?
