“Good teachers, good teaching, that's all I needed. I didn't need programs. I didn't need more technology. I didn't need more textbooks. My philosophy was always to give me good teachers, and that's where I put my blood, sweat, and tears. It was good teaching. That was the golden thread that ran through all of 'em. And the last one was one of America's best urban schools. And they kind of picked us because of our STEM lab and all that was going on in there. But without good teaching, having all of this technology means nothing.”

How much student talk happened today?
When classrooms come alive with conversation, learning improves, students feel a sense of belonging, and teachers feel inspired.
The TeachFX instructional coaching app gives teachers powerful insights into their student talk, student engagement, and classroom conversation.
With TeachFX, teachers see how much student talk happened, the moments of students sharing their brilliance, and the questions that got students talking.Learn how to pilot TeachFX with your teachers. Visit: teachfx.com/betterleaders
Why do students struggle? I'd argue that they lack access to quality instruction, but think about it. That's totally out of their control. What if there was something we could teach kids there was something within their control that would help them be successful in every class? It's not a magic pill or a figment of your imagination.
When students internalize Executive Functioning Skills they succeed.
Check out the new self-paced online course brought to you by OB that shows teachers how to equip their students with executive functioning skills.
