  • An educational leader today is one who, regardless of title, exhibits the following ten traits: -          Willingness to learn new things -          Committed to providing an excellent learning environment for those you are responsible for in your classroom, school or district -          Looks to motivate those you have immediate contact with and those outside your traditional circle of influence -          Continually self-evaluates your own place in the educational structure and adapts for the betterment of education -          Keeps a focus on what’s most important; students and their learning
  • Continually engages in professional development to improve your own knowledge and skills -          Develops and expands a professional learning network through connections and collaboration in social media -          Works to develop other educational leaders in the classroom, school office and central office -          Helps developing and new educators find their way so that they too can one day lead -          Gives back to the profession

  • The Common Core State Standards and accompanying K-12 assessments have recently sparked a fierce national backlash against testing. Sound educational testing and assessment are integral to good teaching and learning in classrooms and necessary for evaluating school performance and assuring quality in education. Rather than throw the baby out with the bathwater, I propose a more considered, "mend, not end" approach to testing, assessment, and accountability in America's schools, with validity at the forefront of the conversation.
  • Mending begins with understanding that most commercial standardized tests are designed to serve particular purposes well, for particular populations, and can support only particular decisions at best. To uphold validity principles in practice, it is worthwhile to ask: Are we using the test for the originally intended purpose, or for another purpose that taxes the tool beyond its technical limits? Multi-purposing a test indiscriminately is not a good idea from a validity standpoint, despite its efficiency.
