Totally agree! I don’t lecture. Students learn at their own pace using a variety of methods to fit their needs.

What happens in class if you get rid of the lecture? These teachers are seeing students’ anxiety levels drop and commitment rise.

Uber employee No. 1 is a billionaire, and he got the job thanks to a tweet

In 2010, Ryan Graves sent a tweet to Uber co-founder Travis Kalanick suggesting himself as a potential hire for what was then a new start-up. Now Graves is a billionaire.

Debate, drama and other extracurriculars provide the excitement many classrooms lack. And they can help overhaul the system.

The @IllinoisASA job bank shows 3,000+ job vacancies existing right now in IL public schools. If a private corp knocked on state’s door & said “we want to create & fill 3,000 jobs”, how many millions $ in incentives would they get? This education crisis is real. Let’s fix it.

These things -- not "prestige" -- make college valuable: - Getting to know professors who make learning exciting & care about you personally - Working on a project across several semesters - Internships - Deep involvement in 1 or 2 extracurriculars qz.com/1571524/

Why is it okay to have students redo courses they fail, but not okay to have them redo assignments and assessments that they fail?
