Malkin Dare, one of the few famous educators you can trust, has a long piece on her site titled "Ten Keys to Successful Teaching." I asked her for…

Hope and engagement aren't frills
Hope and engagement aren't frills
Regarding the recent Gallup poll that asked teachers, principals, students, and other professionals about their hope, emotional engagement, and wellbeing at work or school, Anya Kamenetz writes in The Hechinger report that while these qualities may seem like frills, they powerfully correlate with harder metrics like a company's profits or a school's test scores.

Does it pass the Test for Common Sense?
What would make the most sense about developing and promoting the necessary ingredients for a high quality public education system in the United States? Would it be an agenda that was made up of the highest standards possible? Of course, but in and of itself this would fall short of a full-bodied agenda for success. Recently, I was at a luncheon where a group of people were exploring how we could have schools adopt policies and practices that would allow children to experience more…

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
