Working on Student Success

Teachers and parents are being encouraged to offer incentives instead
of setting concrete deadlines to improve student success.
Renowned expert on student learning Dr. Jane Bluestein delivered that
message at a special workshop in Dryden.
Bluestein says School Boards need to focus on students strengths and
to stay away from promoting so-called “traditional thinking”.
She says students will be more willing to learn if teachers and
parents focus on the positive outcomes of what kids are doing.
