Inspiration of the week: Some notes from ASCD 2015: I had the privilege of meeting differentiation guru Carol Ann Tomlinson.  Her session was fabulous, but I wanted to share with you one thing for now from that presentation. Carol drew up a great analogy about how curriculum and standards are ingredients in a meal that needs to combine many other ingredients, but these ingredients should never be served solo as the meal itself.  They are just ingredients!  I tried to recreate her slides in the poster below: A few of the thousands of Tweets from ASCD 2015: [embed]https://twitter.com/IowaASCD/status/579632598638456832[/embed] [embed]https://twitter.com/akowatch/status/579634625430970368[/embed] [embed]https://twitter.com/Rb08bps/status/579639398402232320[/embed]
