Introducing the Black Teacher Archive, an open-access digital portal that opens a new lens on the history of education, on Black history, and on American history.

It is with great humility & honor that I receive the UVA Partnership for Leaders in Education 20th Anniversary School Leader Impact Award. Thank you to all those who have poured into me, both personally & professionally throughout the years! It is truly a privilege to be in the life-changing work of education!

So inspired by the conversations around deep change and innovation to create transformative teaching and learning experiences in secondary schooling. Kudos and Happy 20th!

We're finishing our learning spaces-focused interdisciplinary project in which grades 6-8 students took data, proposed, changed and then executed classroom designs centered around Biomes.

And right before lunch

The experiences Community Lab School teachers create for kids — and what kids produce as a result — is just remarkable. In year two of a fully interdisciplinary, project-based, and combined grades 9-10 model, scaling vertically from the now well-established 6-8 approach.

Highly recommend this podcast episode with Jack Schneider and Ethan Hutt discussing their new book, “Off the Mark: How Grades, Ratings, and Rankings Undermine Learning (but Don’t Have To)” on.soundcloud.com/DAVWe #deeperlearning on.soundcloud.com/DAVWe

Great read from Scott McLeod: Deeper Learning Requires Deeper Relationships? gettingsmart.com/2023/08/25/dee… #deeperlearning
