That means planning units together and then spending a lot of time analyzing the iterative work the students produce. This process teaches educators to recognize that there are no standard individuals, and there are as many learning trajectories as there are people.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What teaching that lifts all students could look like &#8212; from kqed.org by\u00a0Kristina Rizga An initial comment from DSC: I recently ran across this article.
