We are designers of learning!!! So let’s start designing for the individual not the average... “rather than forcing students to fit to the environment, we need to have the environment fit each student” Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) #personalizedlearning gse.harvard.edu/news/ed/15/08/… #edchat

Topical at this time of year. If students forget everything after 2 months, have they actually learned anything in the first place? Lack of student-driven, relevant curricula is the problem, not the length of holidays.

Just hung my favourite poem. I once heard a safeguarding officer say that some students will not have been properly acknowledged before they arrive at school. I now try to greet everyone I see with a smile & a "hello". It doesn't cost me anything!#edutwitter

Ideas needed! Looking for a way to welcome a new cohort of 13-15 year olds onto our self-directed learning programme. Helping them connect with each other and set a tone of independence, responsibility & adventure. Last year we did a scavenger hunt to find us. Thanks! #edutwitter

The first project ideas of 2019 :-) Lots of good stuff to work with. #coconstructedcurriculum #studentled

Excited by our first co-constructed curriculum of the year. Now up to students to choose their options for the next 4-8 weeks. #studentled #MYPChat

Just posted my first ever blog! Lessons from the first year of a self-directed learning programme. Lesson 1: democracy doesn't work. Be gentle! #mypchat ibeducatorvoices.wordpress.com/2019/09/28/les…

A big thank you to Rachel Brouwer of KPMG and One Young World for speaking to our Pathfinder students yesterday. It's already inspired some of them to embark on a tree planting project this year! ishthehague official

Enjoying a good geek out at #FOEN2019 #FOEN. Loads of practical takeaways, but the best thing is knowing we are part of a global movement re-imagining & re-designing education in our own small (but big) ways. Thx WAB

“We’re not as dumb as we look. We know ourselves better than our teachers know us.” WAB students getting real. #FOEN2019

My latest blog about "discovering" team teaching. Thanks WAB and #FOEN2019 for the revelation. ibeducatorvoices.wordpress.com/2019/12/01/rev…

Reminder to self: Skype a scientist!

Looking for research on the impact of co-constructing curricula. Any tips?

Covid-19: a dreadful opportunity for schools. ibeducatorvoices.wordpress.com/2020/04/24/cov… What opportunities do you see for schools to emerge from the crisis in better shape than when they entered it? #Covid_19 #FOEN2019 #edutwitter

Farage seems happy enough so far. Putting a positive things on things for Trump? ISH Global Politics
