FROM OUR BLOG
Being Loyal to Learning at All Levels of Education
While I was working on the book ‘Bold Moves for Schools’ that I co-authored with Dr. Heidi Hayes Jacobs, we spent a lot of time on the idea of what it means to be a contemporary learner, contemporary teacher, contemporary leader, and contemporary school.
To move towards a contemporary structure requires us to make bold moves such as being loyal to learning.
What does it mean to be loyal to learning? Being loyal to learning means being committed to the authentic learning process. The authentic learning process uses the cycle of expertise as James Paul Gee would often talk about or acknowledges and embraces failure as a critical part of the learning process.
