Asking students for their thoughts, ideas, perspective. A WHOLLY underutilized strategy.
🧵 My first period had a few extra minutes today, so just sort of out of the blue I asked, "What kind of things could we do in this class that would make you want to do it on your own instead of just using ChatGPT to do it?" It was really insightful. 1/

It was great catching up with @HallsHomework on @MassCUE’s #GetACUE podcast. Discussing all things from pandemic Chrombook procurement to intentionally centering equity as we pave the road forward for #edtech in MA schools.
Check out the most recent episode of the #GetACUE Podcast with my guest @jmgantzer from the MA DESE Department of EdTech and our talk about digital equity! spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e…

Thank you @LearnLaunch @janemswift for providing the @RedSox dugout as a stage to center the voices of our students in an important conversation about how we can make the high school experience better for them. Young people are giving me hope!

"I am who I am" isn't a justification for treating people poorly. We all have multiple selves. It's up to you to decide which elements of your identity and personality show up. If you didn't consider the interests of others, you didn't bring the best version of yourself.
