Our project team is thrilled to have the opportunity to expand our IMPACT PL model to explore how it gets embedded into school and district structures to support teachers in developing and sustaining ambitious teaching practices!

Hot off the press! New 3D performance assessments for high school (some MS, to) were just added to our bank of free tasks. These use authentic ag contexts and were developed with our wonderful partners @Vivayic scalescience.wested.org/snap…

Surprising. Astounding. Staggering. Unnerving. Bewildering. Flabbergasting. Disquieting. Gobsmacking. Shocking. Mind boggling.

🧵Feedback was something that felt like a waste of time for me for a long time with my students. It seemed like I would spend hours providing it only to have it be ignored.
I blamed the kids, when I should have been looking at my practice.
Here's what I've changed...
