For those who think our school system has gotten off track by embracing a multitude of failed methods, I have some good news.
There is a very aggressive new book that names names, deconstructs theories, and explains that the worst sort of people are taking over our schools and our economy. The author's message is that we have to understand what's going on and stop it, otherwise all the lights are going to be turned off. Specifically, everyone needs to…

Shiver me timbers! When could be more entertaining that a dress up party for the launch of the first transcontinental NYEDChat and TLAP online chat last night. It may not have been the Golden Globes or the Bammy Awards, but it was a celebratory event just the same. The lead pirate, Dave Burgess, author of the well-know professional text, Teach Like A…

Last night at the Grammy Awards, Hunter Hayes debuted his new single, "Invisible." What a great song for young people experiencing bullying, or just trying to fit in. Even though "No-Name Calling Week" is officially over, you still may want to share this with your students.

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.
