Our students have a great reputation as hard workers and strong students. They hunger for deeper understanding, and for chances to act on their learning. They want to engage the rest of the world and change lives. Unfortunately, as in many schools, the measure of success is test scores. Our students are receiving a message, loudly and clearly, that there is little time for them to process their learning, that they must "sit and get" information that will be on a test. Fortunately, my students are optimistic. They believe that they can become leaders AND perform well on any assessment. They believe that if they are allowed to, they can participate in rigorous academic discussions that will deepen their learning, help them perform, and make them leaders. An important note: they want to create discussion structures that work, not just participate in pre-existing ones. They want to be leaders in their communities, and practice for the freedom that awaits them.
