The 2025 GLOW Conference #edusky #eduskyai

Connecting with colleagues is best part of ISTE-ASCD conference this week

Rosa Mistika is atop @wwborders.bsky.social's June Watchlist wordswithoutborders.org/read/article...

Eager to learn more about Maine Solutionaries Project from Julie Meltzer #istelive #ascd25 #pbl

Today at 2:30 pm, join me for Students to the Rescue in Stars at Night Ballroom. Let's dig into strategies for authentic problem solving, engaged learning #ISTElive #ASCD25

Impressive examples of student design/problem solving from Highlands School in El Salvador. Check out their posters! #istelive #pbl

Favorite part of ISTE/ASCD is catching up with friends (& making new ones) @scottmcleod.bsky.social #iste25

Looking forward to upcoming ASCD-ISTE conference in San Antonio. Join me for my session on Tuesday to hear how students are tackling problems to improve their communities #PBL

World Swahili Language Day is coming up on July 7th. I'll be reading from my English translation of Rosa Mistika at this wonderful event put together by @soasuni.bsky.social. Karibuni wote! www.soas.ac.uk/about/event/...

Honored to see a mini-review of Rosa Mistika in this week's issue of The New Yorker. "Playing in the space between social realism and fabulist storytelling" is a wonderfully apt description! www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

It's pub day for Rosa Mistika—and here is a lengthy interview about the novel (and much else!) with @chicagorevbooks.bsky.social chireviewofbooks.com/2025/06/17/t...

Connecting with community partners is a powerful way to design real-world PBL—but it’s easier said than done. That’s where this nonprofit comes in. @suzieboss.bsky.social explains how CommunityShare supports teachers across the country in designing community-engaged projects. 🤝 #PBL #EduSky

Loss of funding for National History Day hurts international students, too #NHD

History Day. Half a million kids participate. Cancelled before national competition.

I’ve served as National History Day judge for 10 years. It’s been inspiring to see junior & high school students so excited about learning. More senseless destruction of (cheap!) programs that enrich people’s lives. And for what? To fund taxes cuts for those who are already wealthy. 😡 #NHD

Horrified to hear that this awesome program has been cut #NHD www.edutopia.org/article/nati...

I just got confirmation that National History Day, a program that does more to ignite K-12 students' love of history, learning, and yes, even the United States than anything else I've ever seen, had all its funding cut yesterday by the DOGE-axe at the NEH - including for this year's ongoing contest.

The National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) is deeply disappointed in the recent decision to eliminate funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) for the National History Day (NHD) program. ➡️ Full statement here: hubs.li/Q03g6D4r0

In new issue of EARCOS Journal, I talk with international educator Matt Elms about his award-winning work to teach students to think like historians through National History Day Projects #EduSky #PBL

"When someone hurts you, you’re obliged to write your grievances in the sand, so they’ll scatter as soon as the winds of forgiveness begin to blow." #SwahiliFiction by Fadhy Mtanga in the new issue of #LivinginLanguages. Karibuni hadithi scholarsarchive.library.albany.edu/liljournal/v...

Look forward to presenting at ASCD/ISTE combined conference in July. My session--Students to the Rescue--will offer strategies for student-centered projects with real-world impact #edusky

Last gig of 2024 in the books--an early morning webinar with teachers from a network of 10 schools in Chile who are embracing #PBL and student-centered learning. Looking forward to seeing how they engage with their communities on authentic problem solving in 2025

All you @edutopia.org readers out there, we put together a compilation of what you had to say on the biggest issues and debates raised by our content this year: www.edutopia.org/article/2024.... What a great community we have!

Staying up late to talk about #PBL with educators from Saudi Arabia, India, & beyond. Eager to hear their ideas for real-world projects #edusky

Here are 16 ways to spice up the old favorite Think-Pair-Share (which is also great without extra spice!) from @toddfinley.bsky.social : www.edutopia.org/article/thin...

Assessing individuals in team PBL projects always comes up as a wonder when we coach teachers in Project based learning, so my colleagues at @appliedcoaching.bsky.social asked me to write a blog post with some ideas. I hope it's helpful! #PBL #edusky www.appliedcoaching.org/post/how-to-...

@elemenous.bsky.social Congrats on another inspiring #globaled conference. Looking forward to catching up with recordings on sessions I missed #edusky

In his Atlantic piece, David Brooks crafts a solid argument in favor of project-based learning, portfolios, cultivation of curiosity. Music to ears of those who have been pushing in this direction for years #edusky www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

recalling early days of T - an article I wrote for @edsurge.bsky.social in 2013 “how Twitter tore down my District’s Walls” - I still was a supt & valued social media because of sharing, connectivity, learning across boundaries www.edsurge.com/news/2013-09... #edusky #eduskychat #rethinklearning
