Conversations Episode 87- What does "readiness to learn" really mean?

This week we used an article by Alfie Kohn to try to tackle the question, What does readiness to learn really mean?  We had a great conversation but didn't come up with many answers.  We did come up with our next topic: When we collect data, what data do we want?  What is the purpose of data collection?  We will be back on January 9th to discuss that topic.

The chat did not archive this week.

This week we discussed reasons we go to conferences and what we do when we get back to school. Do we become agents of change or do we just continue the week to week routine without making changes based on what we learned by attending the conference?
