For all academics!! Just wrapped up the +10 hours NCFDD Core Curriculum and wow, what a journey! 🎉 Really wish I had discovered this gem when I first started my grad journey. It's been a major eye-opener, blending seamlessly with my passion for educational research and evaluation. Through the curriculum, you dive deep into strategies specifically designed to boost productivity and success in academia. I've already started applying some of these game-changing insights, and the difference is palpable. Honestly, I'm buzzing with ideas on how these new skills can revolutionize the academic landscape. It's all about building an environment where scholars, educators, and students alike can thrive and excel. #NCFDD #AcademicExcellence #DiversityInEducation #HigherEd #GraduateJourney #EducationalResearch #AcademicProductivity #ProfessionalDevelopment #InclusiveEducation #LifeLongLearning Krisanna Machtmes Research, Development and Innovation Authority (RDIA)

What could your PBIS team do in January to support your students’ social, emotional, and academic success? Reteach your school-wide expectations. Finding those #PBIS lesson plans and reteaching how to live school values out loud is a great idea now that winter break is over. After two weeks of living with a very different rhythm, set your students up for success by taking some time right now to reset and reinforce routines and expectations. Plus, it’s possible you’ve got a number of students who enrolled after your first teaching time at the beginning of the year. Taking time for a school-wide reteach definitely brings new scholars into your community and ensures they’ve got the same vocabulary for living school values out loud. Reteaching expectations after break does take some time, effort, and scheduling, but the time you spend front-loading the love is time you will absolutely get back in learning. #PBIS #SEL #classroommanagement

Timothy Knowles is right when he says, "The answer to chronic absenteeism is creating schools where young people feel they belong, and where engaging, experiential, rigorous teaching and learning is the daily diet." But too many districts and schools seek to solve the chronic absenteeism problem by trying to fix kids or families while leaving systems of instruction, assessment, and discipline untouched, and never addressing the extent to which the learning environment is affirming, inspiring, and culturally sustaining. Hedy Chang and the team at Attendance Works have produced incisive work in this area. Paul Gorski perhaps best summarizes what we need to do: "Fix injustice, not kids" (https://lnkd.in/gw43W8dv).

Very often, two brains are better than one, especially when project planning for the academic year 🧠 Today, Andrew Lombart and I ditched the typical brainstorming crowd and went rogue with our mission: to revolutionise learning at Canterbury Christ Church University through a brand new platform called Handshake! 🤝 We have a timeline in place and a lot of great things coming! Think more time for us to see students learn and evolve, more customised learning paths and more ways for them to interact with alumni and employers 🙌 Keep an eye out for updates - and follow Careers and Enterprise CCCU to be the first to know of the new things we'll prepare in the future! #CCCUCareers #CCCU #projectplanning #joinHandshake #stickynotes

The future of education is in our hands

It is crucial for #children to return to school after vacations and avoid dropping out, especially in the context of #India's development aspirations. #Schools provide a supportive environment where children not only learn academics but also crucial social and life skills. #Education, even more in the context of marginalised communities, acts as a powerful tool in breaking the cycle of #poverty, offering opportunities for upward social mobility and improving overall quality of life. Acknowledging all stakeholders who are supporting government efforts in reducing dropout rates by helping children get #BackToSchool #Governments #Schools #Teachers #Parents #Community #CSOs #Donors #Corporates #Partners - collaboration among stakeholders creates a supportive ecosystem that ensures every child has access to quality education and school, thus fostering their holistic development and future opportunities. Together, we will build a foundation for a prosperous and developed India. #SecureChildhood #SecureFuture #ViksitBharat Bal Raksha Bharat Sudarshan S Pratham Education Foundation Child Rights and You (CRY) The Akshaya Patra Foundation Prayas Room to Read ChildFund India Teach For India SOS INDIA

Over the years, children are spending much more of their childhood indoors, and within the walls and gates of early childhood services. Young children are wired to explore, learn through physical movement and to make connections. Research shows restrictions to movement and confinment in the early years is impacting children’s learning and development. How are we using ‘place-based pedagogy’ to support young children to explore and make connections in their local community, and to feel like they belong to it?
