EduWin

“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
               ~ Mahatma Gandhi

All educators, administrators, and students (P-20) are encouraged to "tweet" one positive statement about education per day via: http://www.whatisyoureduwin.com to refocus the message from what is NOT working in education, to what IS working in education.  

If you can’t tweet daily, find a time that works for you. If you don’t Tweet, this is a great reason to begin.
There is a myriad of exemplary teaching and learning opportunities taking place in all classrooms – Validate and Celebrate!
