What do We Lose by Measuring ‘Average’ in Education? MindShift shares an excerpt from Todd Rose’s novel The End of Average: How We Succeed in a World That Values Sameness. In this short excerpt he talks about the need for environments to be responsive to individuality so that everyone has the chance to live up to their full potential. Many parallels can be found in the example Rose highlights about the Air Force’s design of airplane cockpits and the environment we create for our students. http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2016/03/28/what-do-we-lose-by-measuring-average-in-education/ Bloomboard Looking for new ideas to implement in your classroom?
