Dear Educator, you cannot give what you do not have. You teach what you know but you only reproduce who you are. Do what you teach! Let your pupils see you observe dining etiquette, model organization, collaboration, and hard work. Model character! It is not enough to teach classroom expectations, model it! Stop the gossip in front of your children! Stop the name tagging. What children see, children do! What type of pupils are you reproducing? #21stcenturylearning #dynamiceducator #inspiringeducator #21stCenturyEducator

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day! Check out this list compiled by Mike Snider of USA TODAY for freebies, deals & discounts for educators this week!

When I began my education journey, I was excited about engaging in meaningful discussions on pedagogy, teaching methodologies, and how children learn. However, my experiences quickly revealed a stark reality: in 90% of schools, these crucial topics were rarely addressed. Instead, the focus was overwhelmingly on academic operations, sidelining the essence of real education. My observations highlights key points: → Focus on Operations Over Education: Schools often act like restaurants where the head chef discusses interior design, food service, and cleanliness but neglects the core aspect of cooking and bringing innovation in recipes. Similarly, schools prioritize administrative tasks over meaningful discussions about real education, pedagogy and delivery which should be our primary focus. → Need for Time Management: Yet, I don't place the blame entirely on the schools.Schools are inherently operationally heavy. To address this, school leaders must streamline academic operations to free up time for principals and teachers. This time can then be dedicated to planning, discussing, and implementing effective education strategies and delivery. → Structural Changes: To foster real educational improvements, schools need to create specific roles, such as separate academic heads, focused solely on enhancing teaching methodologies and delivery. An ecosystem that supports these changes is crucial for a more effective educational environment. As we move forward, let's focus on what truly matters: delivering real education that empowers our students and enriches their learning experiences. #realeducation #thevivekanandaschool #education #academicoperations #teachingmethodolgy #effectiveeducation #schools #educationsystem
