Stop the pretending to #MakeSchoolDifferent  

6/2/2015

 
(Taken from mguhlin.org)

We must START ...
  1. ​Coaching each student or staff member at their level
  2. Reaching each student to become better
  3. Encouraging kids to find their passion and don’t give up.
  4. Making time for collaboration.
  5. Embracing the chaos where students find a new gear that they never even knew they had.
We must STOP …
  1. Pretending that teachers can actually teach in ways described in the classroom learning activity rubric while preparing children for high-stakes assessments.
  2. Pretending that depending on the power of social media to transform schools’ structures and systems.
  3. Pretending that schools today are set up for collaboration, both for teachers and students.
  4. Pretending that the latest book on leadership, transformation, Web 2.0, or grading practices will reform an education system.
  5. Pretending that curriculum leaders and technologists will magically collaborate to transform classrooms.

    I grew up in Martin (Tennessee) and have lived in Denver (Colorado), Greenville (South Carolina), and now mostly in the Fort Worth (Texas) area since 1981. I have worked with churches and Christian schools most of my life and am the founder of and a consultant with PS Tech Group. My dedication is Success through Technology.

    I have two sons who are each married and who each have two children. My older son is a minister in the Kansas City area while my younger son works in IT in the Fort Worth area. My four grandchildren range from just over 1 year old to a college freshman.
