New explorations

So this year, in my new role - I'm learning many things. It's given me the opportunity to further explore issues such as formative assessment, standards-based grading and homework. I'm attending a conference in October for how to use the socratic method and integrating higher order thinking skills into the classroom. I LOVE learning. As I find interesting and relevant information, articles, or websites that might be of use to some of you - I'll be sure to post them. Currently, I'm between a handful of books but should I come across a site that focuses on practical applications of concepts into the classroom - I'll pass them along! Sharing is caring, folks!
