In PART 3 (35:04), Tom offers his critiques of the new reporting order, specifically at the assertion made in documents to families from the BC Ministry of Education that "Proficient is the goal for your child" and that "Extending is not the goal for all students in every area of learning."    <ul><li><a href="https://curriculum.gov.bc.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New BC Curriculum</a></li></ul>   <ul><li><a href="https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/administration/legislation-policy/public-schools/student-reporting-framework" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New BC Reporting Order</a></li></ul>   <ul><li><a href="https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/education-training/k-12/administration/legislation-policy/public-schools/student-reporting-for-families" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Information for Parents &amp; Caregivers</a></li></ul>     UPCOMING EVENTS   <ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/ca/events/grading-from-inside-out-jonesboro.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Grading from the Inside Out</a><ul><li>Jonesboro, AR (Sep. 25-26)</li></ul></li></ul><ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/ca/events/grading-from-inside-out-charleston.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Grading from the Inside Out</a><ul><li>Charleston, SC (Oct. 11-12)</li></ul></li></ul><ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/ca/standards-based-learning-in-action-seattle.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Standards-Based Learning in Action</a><ul><li>Seattle, WA (Oct. 16-17)</li></ul></li></ul><ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/ca/events/grading-from-inside-out-st-louis.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Grading from the Inside Out</a><ul><li>St. Louis, MO (Dec. 6-7)</li></ul></li></ul>     NEW BOOKS BY TOM: <ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/redefining-student-accountability.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Redefining Student Accountability"</a> (NEW)</li></ul>   <ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/concise-answers-to-frequently-asked-questions-about-assessment-and-grading.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Concise Answers to FAQs about Assessment &amp; Grading"</a></li></ul>   <ul><li><a href="https://www.solutiontree.com/jackpot.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Jackpot: Nurturing Student Investment through Assessment"</a></li></ul>       CONNECT WITH TOM SCHIMMER <ul><li>Podcast on <a href="https://twitter.com/TomSchimmerPod" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a></li><li>Tom on <a href="https://twitter.com/TomSchimmer" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a></li><li>Podcast on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tomschimmerpodcast/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram</a></li><li>Podcast on <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tomschimmerpodcast" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TikTok</a></li><li>Podcast on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SchimmerEducation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Facebook</a></li><li><a href="https://tomschimmer.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.tomschimmer.com</a></li><li>Email: tomschimmerpod@gmail.com</li></ul>  ]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">tomschimmerpod.podbean.com/d9fb0ced-9c15-3d3c-8065-fad067a42766</guid><pubDate>Wed, 07 Jun 2023 08:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/54124906/230607_bonus_bc_reporting_order_2023_06_06_1248_pm9qfk4.mp3" length="75357122" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>voicEd Radio</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>In this bonus episode, Tom offers his perspective on the New Reporting Order in British Columbia set to be implemented in the 2023-24 school year.

She has been teaching for the better part of the past decade and was introduced to UDL practices fairly early on in her practice.

Prior to teaching in WA, she taught art for 5 years and special education for 1 year in TN. She has worked in several districts and schools and believes that leadership is the key to making systemic changes in education. However, she believes that teachers who are trained in UDL can make THE difference in kids’ lives when the paradigm shift occurs.
