@DrBradJohnson Admin keeps focusing on the wrong things.Trust and relationships are the foundation without them, feedback doesn’t land, no matter how “correct” it is. We keep promoting people into leadership roles without giving them (or requiring) the skills to actually lead.

Veteran teachers don’t struggle with feedback because they’re unwilling to grow. The issue is the system treats a first-year teacher and a 20-year teacher the same. That doesn’t make sense. A new teacher is building a foundation. They need structure, modeling, and direct feedback. A veteran teacher is in a different place. They’ve taught thousands of lessons, worked with hundreds of students, and refined their craft. They need someone who can challenge them and understand their level. But the system applies the same rubric, checklist, and process to everyone. And it’s not working. Large-scale evaluation reforms haven’t shown meaningful gains in student achievement. In another study, only about one in four teachers said feedback actually improved their teaching. That should tell us something. The strongest research points elsewhere. Instructional coaching shows significant improvement in both teaching and student outcomes. Why? It’s ongoing, specific, and grounded in real classrooms. It meets teachers where they are. That’s the difference. You can standardize evaluation, but you can’t standardize growth. We’ve tried to fix weak feedback by making it more standardized. The problem isn’t the form. It’s the fit. This isn’t about administrators doing something wrong. Most are doing what they’ve been asked to do. The system just doesn’t match the complexity of the work. A veteran teacher doesn’t need more boxes checked. They need someone who understands what they’re trying to do and can think with them at a high level. Evaluation should be less about judging and more about helping. More aspirational. More conversational. Not “Here’s what to fix,” but: What are you working on? What’s been effective? Where do you want to grow? Because growth is voluntary. You can require evaluation, but you can’t force improvement. That comes down to credibility and relevance. Teachers act on feedback when they believe the person giving it understands their work, content, and students. That’s why coaching works. It’s ongoing, specific, and built around real practice. It creates ownership, not compliance. Veteran teachers don’t ignore feedback because they think they know everything. They ignore feedback that doesn’t match their level. After enough years, you learn to filter what helps from what just checks a box. Because growth isn’t one-size-fits-all. And pretending it is doesn’t make it better. It just makes it look more organized. References: National Bureau of Economic Research American Educational Research Association / American Educational Research Journal Review of Educational Research

@Nithya_Shrii A teacher’s role is to create a supportive, productive environment where all 29 students can learn and thrive, while also addressing individual challenges with care and balance.

A teacher should never have to sacrifice 29 students just to manage one who refuses to cooperate.

@Hyatt $400 a night at your Bloomington property and we’re handed a key to an already occupied room? That’s not a minor mistake — that’s a serious security failure. Then our own door wouldn’t latch unless pulled hard. Completely unacceptable. Safety is bare minimum at any price.

@ATT super frustrated . Bought 11 iPhone 17s at a Costco kiosk to switch from T-Mobile, spent over 20 hours trying to make it happen. #’s are unable to port to att. Received awful customer at every stop and now stuck with 11 of your phones that wont port and no directions.

@YouTubeTV I’ve been a loyal customer for 5+ years, but canceled today. In this climate, losing ESPN/Disney is tough — but not having access to trusted local ABC news is a deal breaker.

@United My family's flight (987) was canceled late last night due to mechanical issues. They were rebooked for today but never got the promised hotel voucher or compensation for $$ lost on Airbnb & Paris tours. What are the next steps? #CustomerService

When my wife and I got married 11 years ago today, the plan was not be freezing our butts off watching 5-year-old soccer at 8AM 11 years later. But here we are… And it’s good.

I’ve spent the last week on 4 college campuses in Texas and NY covering pro-Palestinian protests for @scrippsnews (UT Austin, Columbia, Fordham, NYU). Here’s an incomplete list of my observations based on conversations with dozens of pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel students.  1/
