I guess I might as well start this series with my soapbox message- the importance that educators continue to be learners and what that looks like in the digital age.

In all the work I have done with countless educators from across the world I believe we can break them down into two groups. Effective Educators are those that have a set of truths that they live by. They know they have limits yet are constantly seeking minute improvements to continue growing themselves as an educator.

This happens to educators more often that we can count. Many schools and districts are trying to do the right thing by meeting the needs of as many educators as possible when it comes to professional learning. Often we talk about the need for more personalized learning for students. Start with the Teach 100 list.
