Eternally Optimistic by Christopher Wooleyhand, Ph.D.

June marks the end of my 27th year as an educator, twelve years as a teacher and fifteen as an administrator. Even with all of those years behind me, I remain highly optimistic about the importance and impact of public education. This optimism comes from the gift of seeing children grow every day and every school year.



It is humbling and inspiring to watch a kindergarten child go from learning to recognize the letters of the alphabet to reading grade level passages in a 10 month time… Continue

Bloom’s Taxonomy…. why it’s a nuisance

All around the world, teachers, schools of education, and entire school systems are spending their hours and days discussing whether a particular bit of school activity is sufficiently devoted to ANALYSING as opposed to EVALUATING.

 For most people, most of the time, these are indistinguishable. What kind of discussion can anybody possibly have?  A pointless one.

 And at the end of this discussion, not one kid in one classroom will have…

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.
