The most important emotion in classrooms is surprise.
Every solution has a problem.
Teachers create and transform energy. They are the dynamos of educational change.
If we're all on the same page, no one's reading the whole book.
High performance leaders create an inspiring future by connecting with a classic and honorable past.
We need to establish platforms for teachers to initiate their own changes and make their own judgments on the frontline, to invest more in the change capacities of local districts and communities, and to pursue prudent rather than profligate approaches to testing.
