That bit in there below about new worksheets for teachers... you'll find them here: https://lnkd.in/grkZhSHDMy role was finalising these resources for publication on the Education Portal. Really satisfying content work!·Proof reading.·Making the page in Silverstripe CMS.·Organising files for the users – lots of files! So how do we group them and link to them with teachers’ ease of use in mind? ·Appealing intro text that clearly explains what you get, in a few scannable words.·Using Photoshop to make that branding banner by repurposing existing visuals and checking client’s brand guidelines.·Making those drop-shadows for the preview images to the right so they lift from the page.I love doing this stuff on websites.

MODs are a much-beloved experience at #YSE - one that incoming students really look forward to and alumni remember long after they graduate. The New Haven Science-to-Solutions MOD introduces students to tools for understanding and addressing issues facing New Haven and many urban areas today - issues around water management, #urbanforestry, #environmentaljustice, climate mitigation, and wildlife conservation. #yale #urbanclimatesolutions

Are Universities Failing the Accommodations Test? by Simon Lewsenhttps://lnkd.in/gwQVYJisExcerpt: "I’ve been asked, variously, to excuse multiple absences, to redesign assignments at the last minute, to offer additional make-up assignments, to give passing grades to non-existent work, to stream in-person classes on Zoom, to offer one-on-one tutorials outside of class hours, to provide written notes in lieu of missed lectures, to accept email submissions in lieu of class participation, to grade rough drafts in lieu of finished products, to extend deadlines, to extend deadlines again, and then to extend them one more time..."My Dog Ate My Homework https://lnkd.in/gxzZdhyX Image by R.

The innocence and unbridled enthusiasm of 2nd graders remind me of the magic and wonder that can be found in the world of education, making it a truly fulfilling and inspiring vocation. Their energy and curiosity drive me to create engaging and dynamic lessons that cater to their ever-evolving interests. Second graders also teach me valuable lessons about patience, adaptability, and the power of encouragement, as they embark on the incredible adventure of exploring the world of knowledge.

Day 2 with Illume Learning and Katie Novak, Ed.D.

These 4 x key levers are non-negotiables:Effective Instructional PracticesHigh-Quality Instructional MaterialsData SystemsTiered SupportDon’t forget, if a student already knows the goal/outcome you are about to teach, this is also a barrier to learning!
