In her book Postcards and Pearls, author Gina Greenlee says: “Experience is a master teacher, even when it’s not our own.” It is for this reason that in the second part of our Feedback series we will lean on the experience of our district’s teachers, students and Digital Learning Coordinators. In this episode, we invite two local science teachers, Bill Ferriter and Paul Cancellieri, who are life-long practitioners of feedback to share lessons learned and practical strategies we all should consider as we build a culture of feedback in the classroom.
