Becoming a Warm Demander

9/10/2016

0 Comments

 
In his Edutopia post The Warm Demander: An Equity Approach, Matt Alexander shares Lisa Delpit's description of the Warm Demander teacher. One who "expect's a great deal of their students, convinces them of their own brilliance, and helps them to reach their potential in a disciplined and structured environment."

Embrace Failure

Alexander also shares a four-part framework used at his school, the June Jordan School for Equity. The fourth part is Embracing Failure. He emphasizes that "for failure to result in learning, it must happen in a safe environment, with guidance from someone like a warm demander teacher."

EdCampMSP = Warm, Demanding Learning
When you attend EdCampMSP on Saturday, October 1st, you will be in the company of warm demanders. EdCampers expect a great deal from themselves and embrace the opportunity to become a trusted mentor to others.

Skills Time
The afternoon is an opportunity to work together to change things up. You will have time to create new content using powerful pedagogies and tools alongside experienced teachers and product ambassadors and evangelists that can be used the next Monday.
