WORTH THE SURF: Give Students 20% Time to Explore and Create
My morning is off to a pretty fantastic start. I came in to the office and the first email I opened was my TCEA TechNotes. If you don't subscribe, I suggest you do!
The first article, Give Students 20% Time to Explore and Create, is a gem. What a simple, yet powerful idea. I mean if it works for GOOGLE...then I'm in.
I would like to think that if I was still in the classroom, this is the kind of philosophy I would put into place. I know the "To Teach and Do" list for today's teacher is never-ending...but...what an idea! It is exciting to just think about it.
No matter what your role...student, CIT, classroom teacher, specialist, coordinator, administrator...I think WE should ALL seek to find that 20%. We are all worth it :)
I hope we each find and use our own Genius Hour this week! What will you choose to learn about?!?!
