  • ...8 more annotations...
  • We can help our students gain the capacity to tackle unforeseen problems by emphasizing comprehension
  • We can also introduce students to what community organizers call "relational power" when we use cooperative learning activities and invite as much participatory democracy in the classroom as possible.
  • we can build relationships with students so we can learn their self-interests, hopes, and dreams, and be better prepared to more explicitly connect lessons to them. We can praise effort and specific actions more than intelligence. And we can encourage cooperative learning.
  • Good leaders also teach others.
  • "We learn 10% of what we read, 20% of what we hear, 30% of what we see, 50% of what we see and hear, 70% of what we say or write...[and] 90% of what we teach.”
  • Teaching others not only requires students to reread and return to learned material but it also enhances self-confidence and provides good modeling for peers.
  • When peers teach one another, they develop respect for each others’ judgment and expertise.
  • We can also develop student leadership by creating opportunities for students to take collective action to improve their community

    This is an interesting article about instilling leadership skills into your students.
