….and I\u2019m thinking about all the incredible educators I\u2019ve met over the past seven years and about all the bright and shiny faces of children I\u2019ve seen enjoying and valuing their learning.<\/p>\n….and I\u2019m thinking about all the incredible educators I\u2019ve met over the past seven years and about all the bright and shiny faces of children I\u2019ve seen enjoying and valuing their learning.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m also aware that our decision to only have 100 people (because it is a good size to bring in a diversity of perspectives while also small enough for people to feel safe to share and explore ideas and feel listened to) also leaves out so many of you, who would make invaluable contributions and benefit from the leadership development that takes place at these types of working meetings. Many of you participated in the Technical Advisory Groups, and we are forever grateful \u2013 they way-exceeded our expectations. Honestly, we never could have developed such rich ideas in such a short period of time on our own. Truly, the power of collaboration and collective knowledge can never be under-estimated.<\/p>\n
So…I wanted to share two small things that can help you feel as if you are in Denver with us. First, we are using #CBESummit17 as our hashtag. Second, participants contributed to a playlist<\/a> organized around the question, \u201cWhat music captures your feelings when you think about competency education and making sure that students are learning?\u201d The playlist now on Spotify<\/a> is just so fun and upbeat \u2013 I had to share it right away. If you want to add songs, leave the artist and song in the comments!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","mapsvg_location":""},"legacy_category":[],"issue":[368,371],"location":[],"class_list":["post-4514","cw_post","type-cw_post","status-publish","hentry","issue-issues-in-practice","issue-learn-lessons-from-the-field"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
