I love the reminders in here -- I think as teachers we all can use a reminder of really great practices that we don't always remember to use. But...I really hate the title. I'd prefer to call it "11 Really Great Reminders for Fantastic Teaching". :-)

  This part of the article was so disheartening... "Evaluations are to make us look good-they affect or rating and certification. Coaching and development-should be done among friends." PD is about learning, and the goal of any assessment should be recognition of what's already done well and identification of areas that can be strengthened. That's what we expect from students...why should it be any different for us as professionals? PD should be a chance to learn, grow, and share as professionals, not a punitive process or a dog-and-pony show. It's so disheartening that bad PD practices continue to reinforce these concepts.

Short video (5 minutes) with study tips. Not necessarily new but I got some ideas about activities that have students "teach" the material. Level 5 & Level 6 students might be able to watch and understand. Would be a good session intro video / ideas to work into (I know, we tell these to our students 100 times and they don't listen...maybe if they see a video on it from someone else & then is teacher reinforced, it might stick better?)

Excellent TED talk about the power of relationships in teaching. Talks about public schools, but relevant for all teachers at all levels of education. My favorite part? "While you won't like all of them (your students), the key is, they can never, ever know it." How powerful is that in forging relationship?
