Are you sure you want to
Hi,I’m Vicki Davis, here to talk about how you can help teachers plan the road ahead to success.
As teachers decide the course to take they are getting mixed signs
The first sign teachers need is a sign of hope
You can’t spend that money.
You can’t friend your students on Facebook.
You can’t teach because we have to give another test.
Can’t
Can’t
Can’t
But there are things I CAN do.
I CAN start off by getting rid of the word Can’t.
Right here and right now!
I CAN control ME.
The world is waiting on superman but education
Doesn’t need a superman what education needs is a
Super Can.
You see in the wide world of education if I realize that I can control
Me
I can become one person, but if you realize the same thing that – hey, I can control
ME!
Then we have another person, but then, look at what can happen if a lot of us decide that we can control “me”
Suddenly theme’s become WE
And if an overwhelming majority of “me’s” decide we do something, then we become a
A super majority. A super majority is a resounding number of me’s who say they can. So really, what education needs is!
Super can. Because you know what,
Who is the one person I can control in my district? ME!
Once teachers have the hope to know they can control and influence their classroom they need the practical help to do that
Now if I had time I’d talk to you about the 7 steps to flatten or globalize your classroom
How you can use wikis with
With common core writing standards or even
Or even how to differentiate instruction with technology but
way too many people would rather have a pity party than a victory party
We have got to help teachers at conferences know that they can control ME and that turns into WE and you can enact change.
Finally, teachers need their hearts given back. They need their legacy and nobility restored.
Because these are numbers
And these are not
But what we don’t need is hype.
Give hope
give help
give teachers back their hearts
But leave out the hype
And you can help educators find the road ahead to improve their classrooms. Have a great #iste12
