🌟 TIE Newsletter: Success Without Generosity Is Just Arithmetic 🌟

πŸ€” What if the most important business lesson a student learns isn't how to turn a profit, but what to do with it?

πŸ“– Read this article from Tara Dunphy about how a Year 9 Enterprise program in Bangkok evolved from a coursework exercise in running a business into something deeper, as students chose to direct their profits and products toward UNICEF Thailand and their own school community.

πŸ’¬ We want to hear from YOU!

πŸ‘‡ Drop your thoughts below and join the conversation! Tara writes that "success is rarely achieved alone. It becomes strongest when shared." How do you create space in your own curriculum for students to discover that lesson on their own terms, rather than being told it?
The article highlights Thai values like ΰΈ™ΰΉ‰ΰΈ³ΰΉƒΰΈˆ (sincere generosity toward others) and ΰΈͺΰΈ²ΰΈ‘ΰΈ±ΰΈ„ΰΈ„ΰΈ΅ (unity and shared progress) woven naturally into student decision-making. What cultural values from your school's host country show up in how your students think and lead?

Many candidates try to stand out during the application process. But the strongest candidates differentiate themselves before it even begins.

By preparing early, making their work visible, and getting clear on their direction. So when opportunities appear, they’re not starting from scratch; they’re ready.

🌟 TIE Newsletter: Student Agency in the Art Classroom 🌟

πŸ€” What if a student's lack of engagement isn't a behavior problem, but a sign that the medium itself doesn't fit?

πŸ“– Read this article from Dr. Debjani Mukherjee about how watching one student with ADHD transform from disengaged to deeply invested, simply by switching from acrylic painting to clay, reshaped her thinking on student agency and material choice in the art classroom.

πŸ’¬ We want to hear from YOU! Dr. Mukherjee reflects, "That student taught me something important: engagement is not always a behavioral issue; sometimes it is a material mismatch." Have you ever misread a student's disengagement as a behavior issue when it was something else entirely?
She offers five practical ways to build student agency into structured units, including offering limited material choices and assessing concepts rather than medium mastery. Which of these feels most realistic to try in your own classroom or curriculum area?

🌟 TIE Newsletter: Designing Learning First: Rethinking Technology in the Classroom 🌟

πŸ€” What if the real question isn't whether technology belongs in the classroom, but what kind of thinking it asks students to do?

πŸ“– Read this article from Itzel Madero Hernandez about how schools are using simulations, virtual reality, and AI tools to deepen inquiry and conversation among students, and why the design of the learning experience matters far more than the presence of the tool itself.

πŸ’¬ We want to hear from YOU! In the E. coli outbreak simulation, "the simulation did not provide answers. Instead, it created a shared problem space where student-to-student conversation, not student-to-screen time, became the engine of learning." What would it take to redesign one of your own activities with that same principle in mind?
Researcher Ying Xu reframes the AI question as: "Can AI make the time children already spend on media more enriching and engaging?" How does that shift in framing change the way you think about AI tools in your own classroom or school?

Six Principals' Training Center - PTC courses, one summer to step back and think more intentionally about your leadership.

There’s a difference between doing great work and making that work visible. Most educators focus on the first. But in a hiring process, both matter. Because schools can only evaluate what they can see.

So the question becomes: how are you making your work visible?
