William Aligood Day 2 of #BE2023 opens up with Michael D. Toth giving a reminder of Instructional Empowerment social mission and then dives into brain research.


Great keynote from Michael D. Toth about brain science to open our day during the Instructional Empowerment conference #BE2023


“The brain that is doing the work is the brain that is developing more.” Michael D. Toth #BE2023


#BE2023 Day 2: This cycle of repetitive practice does not allow our students to learn at higher taxonomy levels. How can we continue to improve the way we teach so students engage in productive struggle that stimulates their cerebral cortext? Instructional Empowerment


The teacher must engineer the collaborative structures and environment for students to independently think critically and respectfully question each other’s thinking. -Michael D. Toth #BE2023

Love this mind map that an attendee created based on my keynote at the Building Expertise Educators' Conference. Super creative - thank you so much for sharing! #BE2023 Instructional Empowerment

Educators are architects for accelerated brain development. Thank you to everyone who attended my keynote this morning at the Building Expertise Educators' Conference and came to my book signing afterward. I was honored and grateful for your kind words! #BE2023 Instructional Empowerment


I was honored to present the IE Excellence Award to Principal Lisa Fye and AP Shannon Cole from Crete Intermediate School! They are one of our many outstanding partner schools and received a national recognition as an ESEA Distinguished School. #BE2023 Crete Intermediate Instructional Empowerment


Excited to welcome our new faculty and be part of their onboarding process! They are a dedicated group of education experts, and I look forward to the impact they will make in coaching our partner schools after they complete their deep training and certification. Instructional Empowerment


All students are capable of building the skills to self-direct their learning and behavior. Students will invest discretionary effort when the classroom environment is designed for these outcomes.

I'd like to honor our great partners at School District U-46, led by Suzanne Johnson and her wonderful team. They were mentioned in the The Hechinger Report today. I've personally visited our partner schools at U-46. Educators and students are doing incredible work! Article: hechingerreport.org/preventing-sus…


So proud to have a small part in the training of such a wonderful group of educators who are on fire to change the world! 🔥 Welcome to Instructional Empowerment! Instructional Empowerment


Leaders need to be learners. Happy to be a learner at the Agile 2023 Conference with my friend and colleague, Instructional Empowerment leadership coach Kim Harris. #agile2023 Instructional Empowerment


Student behavior is inseparably linked to the classroom learning environment. The The Hechinger Report and USA TODAY quoted our founder Michael D. Toth and recognized our partner district School District U-46 in a recent article. Are your instructional systems designed for rigor and student agency?


Agile is essential to improving systems in school and integrated into Instructional Empowerment's school advancement model. I'm spending the week at the Agile 2023 Conference and keeping my multiple agile certifications including ScrumMaster current. #Agile2023 #EdLeadership #EdReform
