“We’re placing a bet: these skills and talents will be important.” Dr Yong Zhao re Common Core #blc13

Not all edu=good. Meds list side effects #eduwarning: This may improve standardized test scores, but lead u to hate learning forever #BLC13

Dr. Zhao “Entrepreneurs do not ask “What do you want me to do?” Students in school ask “What do you want me to do.” #blc13
