ee summit | personalized learning
during the 瑞士vs喀麦隆亚盘赔率 personalized learning summit 2019, one of our keynote speakers, principal baruti kafele, discussed the achievement gap, the attitude gap, and the role all educators play in addressing both. i was familiar with the achievement gap, but i was unfamiliar with the attitude gap. principal kafele defines it as, “the gap between those students who have the will to strive for excellence, and those who don’t.” we all know that it’s nearly impossible to change the will of our students, i had plenty of teachers try and fail when i was a student. but the notion that our students need to develop socially and emotionally in order to reach their full potential resonated with me. and not just in the context of when we have them in our buildings – ideally, we want our students to take the academic and non-academic lessons they learn while with us, and apply them to life and the outside world. as we prepare students for their futures, it’s imperative that we prioritize their social-emotional development. we can equip them with a lens to view the diversity the world has to offer as a way to build bridges to solve the problems we couldn’t. at 瑞士vs喀麦隆亚盘赔率 , we believe that student reflection & ownership provides a framework for supporting the social-emotional development of students and ultimately, creates an environment that empowers them to become happy, successful, agents of change.
