If two people always agree, it’s a sign that at least one of them isn’t thinking critically—or speaking candidly. Differences of opinion don't have to be threats. They can be opportunities to learn. Intellectual friction isn't a relationship bug. It's a feature of education.

With social studies increasingly pushed to the side in instructional standards, teachers are grappling with the best ways to nurture students as the engaged, informed participants our democracy needs. #SocialStudies #Teaching #sschat t-t.site/2uCMKrj

The best research any educator can do or tap into is knowing and understanding the learners they serve. Everything else is secondary.

Teaching middle school doesn’t just require a special license; it also requires a pretty unique person who has to be ready for anything.

It's #AboriginalVeteransDay. Thousands of Indigenous peoples served in the Cdn military forces in the World Wars, mostly voluntarily. On the home front, most #Indigenous communities participated in the national war effort. Learn more here: thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/e… #CanadaRemembers
