Our school doesn’t emphasize the test. No rallies. No pressure. We tell kids all year that they are receiving high quality learning experiences & have no need to worry about the test — just do their best — because they can. P.S. AMAZING scores! #edchat

Of course, schools need to assess how good a job they are already doing w/communication THEN figure out how to make it better. #edchat

Better communication? Figure out how to effectively use the tech tools at our fingertips — but don’t lose sight of personal interactions. #edchat

Welcome to #edchat. Tonight’s topic: Is there a problem in education with a majority of teachers being women and a majority of administrators being men?

Interesting article from the Brookings Institution: “How Gender Diversity Among the Teacher Workforce Affects Student Learning” brook.gs/2QyjbRA #edchat

I recall working with a male teacher who was mediocre (at best) who fast-track became a principal then a district office admin. #edchat
