🧠⚡Partnerships = Power 🧠⚡ PLP partners from 11 districts joined forces yesterday at our PLP Partner Innovation Summit to innovate #upstream solutions for downstream challenges in K-12 education, powered by brain science research! WHAT. A. TEAM. #changemakers #brainpower

A must-watch with the amazing @julia_skolnik - an expert on brain science. There was significant discussion on phones, engagement, and so many nuggets. @bbray27 @donna_mccance @NowakRo @redefineED @IanNairn @mcdonald_kecia @sandeeteach @PegGrafwallner https://t.co/CgCclTMmad

We know that a healthy climate & culture is critical for success, but hard work. Centennial SD launched an innovative Culture & Climate Think Tank as part of our partnership, where we will use brain science to better understand & advance the experience of K12 staff! 🧠💡💥👏🏻

As the work of leadership grows more and more complex, sometimes what we need most is to simplify back to what really matters, with people who share the same values.💡 Today was another step forward for our outstanding cohort of PLP Administrator Leader Fellows! #changemakers 🧠

Education is ready for change, and our fellows are using brain science to do it! Today our Teacher Leader Fellows explored the untapped brain science of subtraction, as a strategy to improve learning and well-being. We also welcomed graduated fellows as mentors! #changemakers 🧠

What a pleasure to learn with the stellar admin team at @UpperMerionSD today! We discussed so many relevant topics - the role of attention & distractions in learning, how our beliefs about ourselves influence resilience, & the importance of "less is more" to achieve success. 🧠👏🏻

Cognitive #rest is a necessary component of sustainable #productivity and #creativity. Cheers to balance ⛱️

Where can we best invest our time & energy at the start of a school year? Research says = Build #trust When we foster #trust through caring relationships & setting clear expectations, people's brains signal safety & can be open to taking risks, learn, and grow ⚙️🧠💡 #sixgears
