“In our eagerness tohonor [Blackinnovators], too often we privilege their inventions over their humanity. Imagine how much more we might gain from knowing them as fully realized individuals, not just as the sum of their inventions.” ~ Ezelle Sanford, 2020.

Girl By Tree“Productive struggle is what I call the “sweet spot” in between scaffolding and support. Rather than immediately helping students at the first sign of trouble, we should allow them to work through struggles independently before we offer assistance. That may sound counterintuitive, since many of us assume that helping students learn means protecting them from negative feelings of frustration. But for students to become independent learners, they must learn to persist in the face of challenge.” ~Barbara Blackburn

 

Wondering… Considering the variety of options for differentiation…Is productive struggle a type of differentiation?

“These two or three weeks have been filled with positives. I didn’t win today. I’m disappointed about it. It’s unfortunate for me. But I think I showed a lot of positive signs that I can take moving forward, so I’m okay with that. It’s a game style that I’ve had since I really started playing tennis at a high level, starting as a teenager, I kind of went for my shots. I’m okay with living and dying by the mistakes.”
~American Pro Tennis Player Chris Eubanks. Eubanks played on the Georgia Tech tennis team and tried to qualify for the Wimbledon tennis tournament for four years. This year, he earned his spot on the 2023 tournament roster. 

Listen as Eubanks describes the value of consistent, small routines~
