Hence, the principles of service and activism; of responsibility to and for others; embedded with in the IB is key as its students often go on to fill leadership roles in many fields around the world. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616049342 2021-06-20 10:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616049342 Differences are to be valued, not feared. Be strong in one's beliefs, but respectful and open to others. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616051079 2021-06-20 10:06:25 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616051079 Relevant and authentic learning opportunities... an approach responsive to community needs whether local, regional, national or global in nature; inclusive and universal. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616051860 2021-06-20 10:08:03 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616051860 What we have in common as learners, humans. We have a diversity of individual strengths that can be expanded when combined/interwoven with the strengths of others. There is the potential to engender the best in ourselves through collaboration. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616052977 2021-06-20 10:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616052977 Learning is more than a score or a grade. Students are so much more. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616054598 2021-06-20 10:13:34 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616054598 Language is IMPORTANT. Multilingualism embodies diversity. Language is about communication, community, culture, connections and comparison (the 5 Cs). IBs focus on this makes sense as learning other languages causes one to reflect both inward and outward. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616056347 2021-06-20 10:16:54 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616056347 WARNING...agreement of IB principles by word, but NOT always in deed. The approaches of teaching related to inquiry, the conceptual, and global context tend to be the easy part. The hard work of collaboration, INCLUSION and assessment to inform (instruction and learning) is where the plot is sometimes lost. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616059097 2021-06-20 10:22:38 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616059097 There is great value in what is not easily quantifiable: a willingness to explore the unknown, to persevere even when things seem impossible, or to be kind without thought. Just as or more important as, say, research skills. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616061524 2021-06-20 10:28:00 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616061524 A MUST: Teachers must also reflect. To remember that we, firstly, teach TO the students, not TO the content. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616062782 2021-06-20 10:30:47 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616062782 Approaches to learning, both implicitly and explicitly, taught, modeled and experienced by all students using strategies and activities that provide ACCESS regardless of language or learning needs. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616063848 2021-06-20 10:33:27 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616063848 Struggle does not have to be a negative if progress, not perfection, is the goal. Sometimes the path is long (on that 8-point rubric) and not everyone will be in the same place and the same time. Challenge and support them as individuals. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616064878 2021-06-20 10:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616064878 (NEURO) DIVERSITY may be the final frontier in what makes us unique. Existing paradigms want to sort and place us in different groups. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616066612 2021-06-20 10:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616066612 INCLUSION is more easily SAID, than DONE...teachers can be overwhelmed and prone to hesitation. julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616068747 2021-06-20 10:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616068747 The idea of NORMAL is a big part of language...how do we move to the Universal Design for Learning (UDL)? julieannee https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616069617 2021-06-20 10:47:43 UTC https://padlet.com/julieannee/sry477eokuf9klg0/wish/1616069617
