Radical Wisdom for a Company

Mr. Honeycutt and Mr. Bledsoe

 

 

Notes from the day:

• What's the future?
• What's some pressing issues:
• Relevance: AFNR (career learning and exploration)
• Developing programs of study
• Certifications
• Whatever we inspect is what we respect.
• Engaging people
• How do we tell our story?
• How do we engage our partners more?
• Standards:
• AFNR standards are a good roadmap but look at your local needs!
• Inclusion:
• How do we build that?
• Build that family relationship
• It starts at the local level.
• As a teacher, don't spread yourself so thin that you sacrifice inclusion.
• How welcome, safe and connected will your students feel in your classroom?
• Expose your students to great people, great experiences and books.
• Invest in your students.
• Grades: as a teacher determine how you will grade students fairly so every student can succeed.
• Share with parents and administration!
• How to maximize student teaching:
• Diversify your experiences as much as possible.
• Persevere! Motivation, set backs, lessons will all be challenging so learn from it all.
