Attention Kansas educators!
As a proud Kansas education professional (born, raised, and educated in Kansas), I tweet/share Kansas educators' tweets/posts (especially with pictures!) of student, staff, school, and district achievements and of students, staff, and community partners engaged in rich learning experiences.
THINGS TO DO:
- Follow me on Twitter @eduthusiasm (and mention me in your Tweets).
- "Like" eduthusiasm on Facebook and tag me in your posts. I'll follow or "like" you back and watch for your "retweetable" tweets and "share-able" posts!
- Tweet and/or post regularly (and mention/tag me) about the excellent college and career ready learning experiences going on in your classrooms!
My soapbox:
Rich learning experiences involve:
- inquiry,
- discovery,
- rigor,
- relevance,
- collaboration,
- creativity,
- innovation,
- critical thinking,
- problem solving,
- global awareness....
Rich learning experiences result in:
- language/communication literacy
- core subject knowledge and understanding (best learned through purposeful inquiry and discovery)
- information literacy
- media/technology literacy
- financial, economic, business and entrepreneurial literacy
- civic literacy
- health literacy
- environmental literacy
and in:
- flexibility and adaptability
- initiative and self-direction
- social and cross-cultural skills
- productivity and accountability
- leadership and responsibility
in other words, COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS!
