I'm too tired to dig into these topics right now, but in reference to a good lunchroom discussion and in analysis of recent assessments, I'm wondering if we would do a better job if we spent more time meeting with families for thoughtful academic discussions, strategizing, and goal setting throughout the year, and if we spent more time up front at the start of the year carefully mapping service delivery, setting goals, and creating teaching/learning strategy for every learner.
Right now time is short for upfront service delivery mapping, strategizing, and goal setting with colleagues, students, and family members, and I am wondering if a greater investment of time and attention to these areas would result in more successful teaching and learning. What do you think?
