Online sharing is not digital leadership

Tosha Caston-Smith shared with you:   Online sharing is not digital leadership Dangerously Irrelevant - Using social media to share with your community? It's a start, but it's not enough. Using social media to connect with other educators? That's awesome, but that's not enough either. Available on the App Store.

Don’t Argue For Your Limitations

Tosha Caston-Smith shared with you:   Don't Argue For Your Limitations tomwhitby.wordpress.com - Over the many years that I have been in education and around educators, I have never been able to understand why so many educators, so willingly and publicly, argue for their limitations. Why do they insist, as educators, on stating aloud, " I don't get technology and I am not going to start now"? Available on the App Store.

Why do teachers struggle with technological change?

Tosha Caston-Smith shared with you:   Why do teachers struggle with technological change? educate1to1.org - The process of technology-enabled change in schools is poorly understood, probably because most of us have only ever caught fleeting glimpses of it. Chief among the many reasons for this (institutional inertia, accountability risk, lack of tools aimed at supporting the processes of learning, etc) is impatience. Education is not a sector that has the luxury of taking its time – the children in our schools right now don't get a second chance once we've worked out how to do things right. Available on the App Store.

I Challenge You to See Every Child, Not Just the Ones That Demand Your Attention

Tosha Caston-Smith shared with you:   I Challenge You to See Every Child, Not Just the Ones That Demand Your Attention pernillesripp.com - …I remember thinking that the teacher in front of me probably had no idea I was even in their class. That my parents didn't come to parent-teacher conferences because they heard the same thing over and over; Brandon is doing just fine. I was the just-fine student, the average kid, and teachers never saw me… Available on the App Store.
