CSI Progressive era unit is going awesome! Our 1st case L.Hine ended with a trial for children's rights! Second case: Upton Sinclair and immigration of the early 1900s. If you want details to do this for your class, hit me up! Happy to share! #teachingwithpurpose

There’s no better feeling than when a lesson flows just right — learners are engaged, the energy is high, and every resource you need for meaningful instruction is right at your fingertips.

"Dyslexia is a different brain organization that needs different teaching methods. It is never the fault of the child, but rather the responsibility of us who teach to find methods that work for that child." -Maryanne Wolf

From reaching over a million viewers online to choosing a life of service in the classroom—Zain Suleman's path to teaching is anything but ordinary. 🌍

#UWEducation #TeachingWithPurpose
Zain Suleman sits at the front of an elementary classroom, leading a lesson with a group of young students seated on a colorful carpet. He gestures toward a large interactive display showing classroom expectations in Arabic and English, while several students raise their hands to participate. The classroom walls are covered with alphabet charts, vocabulary visuals, and learning materials, creating a vibrant multilingual learning environment.

This is why we teach! I love this student’s reflection, self-awareness, self-efficacy and clear sense of empowerment. This is #teachingwithpurpose #authenticity

Was looking for the address of a former student today when I came across this email from 2023. A great reminder of my
#Ungrading 'why' & motivation to continue despite the many challenges that can sometimes feel like...a lot. 😀 #alternativegrading
Hi Ms Oliver! I hope you’re doing well! I have one week left of my first year of university and I wanted to update you and also show you one of my projects:) I have officially been accepted to creative industries at ____ which means that I will me majoring in creative industries with a specialization in fashion starting in September. Without your continued support throughout high school I do not think that I would have the confidence to pursue such a “non traditional” major when I was “supposed” to go into law. A LOT of things from your course have benefited me in this first year, and you should tell your students that university professors are using elements of ungrading and they should take it seriously, because profs and TAs don’t give as much feedback as you do! I am currently taking “refashioning history” and my final for this class is a project on a reclaimed beauty, style or dress trend, involving a paper and a digital artifact. I decided to focus on street wear and my paper is heavily influenced by our class discussions of Dr Dre’s halftime show. This is the video I created! I have pulled so much from your course and as I was editing this video today I thought, “I better send this to Ms Oliver, she would like this” lol. Let me know what you think! Again I hope you are doing great!
