Teachers on Fire How Do YOU DISPLAY Your STUDENT LEARNING? Reviewing the Top Posts on Education X from the Week
Welcome to the last edition of Saturday Morning Teacher Talk for 2023 and the indefinite future. I’ve enjoyed doing these mini-episodes but will be changing up my content format in 2024.
Education X Posts Featured in This Episode:
Teacher2Teacher asks: How do we let our students know their work is amazing? Joelie McCrary urges teachers to display student learning as much as possible.
Tony Vincent shares a fun Friday entry: Quick Draw (found at quickdraw.withgoogle.com). Sketch a given word and see if the AI can guess your word based on your drawing.
Tyler Rablin observes that students are more willing to take risks in their writing pieces or project designs when we de-emphasize grading.
Trevor MacKenzie promises that co-designing learning experiences with and for students can be powerful stuff if only we can embrace our vulnerabilities and check our egos at the door.

I sign off and thank my faithful viewers and listeners for tuning into this show throughout 2023. These weekly editions of Saturday Morning Teacher Talk will not continue in 2024, but you'll hear from me on the Teachers on Fire podcast interviews which will continue to air here.
