UR fosters meaningful transformations within educational communities, strengthening student-faculty partnerships.

This is the result of a study conducted by Nicole Messi and myself, which has just been presented on ConnectUR.

Thinking about student autonomy in the classroom? It's not all or nothing! There's a continuum of student voice and choice, ranging from complete teacher control to complete student control. #Education #StudentVoice #StudentAutonomy

If you believe that empowering students to ask their own questions is one of the most powerful ways to cultivate critical thinking, curiosity, and problem solving...
Then...
Consider the upcoming conference: Teaching Students to Ask Their Own Questions: Best Practices in the Question Formulation Technique (QFT).
A great opportunity for educators, coaches, and leaders committed to deeper learning.

What if public education became a space for solutions? I foresee engaged students - you?

"“Oftentimes I hear older people calling us [kids] creative, right? If we’re called creative, why can’t we use that creativity to solve some of the world’s biggest problems?” he asked. “Unfortunately, there are barriers for K-12 [students] to network.”

I used to attend a university for a diploma in computer engineering. After a few semesters, I decided to stop studying there. I needed to withdraw. However, what they call "student peers"—I am not sure what the term is in English—were being reductionist and maximalist regarding the official documents, stating that I had already agreed to and chosen the university and the study program in the online application form. This is not fair. I believe it is important to treat each person as an individual, as a whole person, rather than merely considering what I have done to prevent me from leaving. I wasn't there to fulfill their collectivist culture, believing I should prioritize the university's name and dignity at the cost of my own. At the moment, I want to take a break from writing this, as my mind is troubled by thoughts of my past, including the emotional abuse I experienced from the university staff. Unfair, right?

Microsoft releases tool for AI reading lessons

A step (very small) in the direction of responding to student voice...

"Teachers will be able to track how student’s feel about assignments using the Reflect tool within the program.This kind of feedback might help an educator determine what assignments students feel most excited about and which lessons might not be working."

👋🏻 I'm Skylar (he/him). I grew up in New Orleans and moved to Madison, Wisconsin for graduate school in #Geology before changing tracks and becoming a middle/high school #Teacher.

In the #Education realm, I'm particularly passionate about #OutdoorLearning, #ProgressiveEducation, and #StudentVoice. I currently teach at Koshkonong Trails School, a small, public charter school with an environmental and agricultural focus; serve on the boards for the Wisconsin Association for Environmental Education and Human Restoration Project (@humrespro); and lead the Wisconsin Teacher-Powered Schools Network.

I like to write about teaching, and take nature photos, which I post to Medium and Flickr, respectively. I'm particularly fond of rocks and lichen.

I was heavily invested in the bird network before the billionaire took over, but I deleted my account and am learning how to Mastodon. c.im seemed like a friendly server that wasn't as absurdly large as mastodon.social, which I initially joined.

I'm excited to have a new online community to explore, while also mourning the one I've left behind. #Introduction #TwitterMigration
