Teacher Reflection & Action: Optimistic Thinking

As educators, we face the daily challenge of holding a sense of optimism, of hope and confidence, that every one of our students can fully learn the academic content and social engagement skills necessary for them to thrive in college, careers, and community life. One key to grounding our educational practices in realistic optimism is focused on reflection, taking time to consider our current thinking and to adapt it as needed.
