    "One hour can change the culture of an entire school. Three years ago, West Port High School in Ocala, FL, embarked on a potentially risky experiment to change the culture of its growing school. The result was a change that had a positive impact beyond its original concept. Course failure rates plummeted, participation in cocurricular activities skyrocketed, discipline referrals declined dramatically, school pride blossomed, and the school earned a state grade of A."

Does Teaching Kids To Get 'Gritty' Help Them Get Ahead? : NPR - 1 views

  • Experts define grit as persistence, determination and resilience; it's that je ne sais quoi that drives one kid to practice trumpet or study Spanish for hours — or years — on end, while another quits after the first setback.
  • When a kid struggles to answer a question, for example, teachers resist the urge to swoop in and offer hints. Instead, they let students squirm a little through an awkward silence. The idea is to get kids comfortable with struggle so they see it as just a normal part of learning.

      This here is key. I find that science teachers are often best at this...giving kids time to "ponder" as Jeff Radloff says. The main thing is having that conversation with your class so everyone knows awkward silence is ok--maybe rebrand it as "thinking silence!"

The debate over the utility of explicitly learned knowledge in language learning has come full circle again thanks to a new crop of digital immersion platforms, including Duolingo, Lingua.ly and Bliu Bliu.
