Two former students of mine are getting married. Congrats, grandpa and grandpa!

She’s very popular with students. She reflects a lot on what it was like to be a student and has great compassion.

Needless to say, that meant that the Braekbills student body was quite the psychological menagerie. Carrying that much onboard cognitive processing power had a way of distorting your personality. And to actually want to work...

Japanese universities have a chair system that is a fixed hierarchy. This has its merits when trying to work as a laboratory on one theme. But if you want to do original work you must...

This year, we will continue to work with students that don’t read and don’t meet the literacy standards for their grade levels. We will try to create a more structured program for English learners.

We expect to have about 100 new students by day’s end,

I don’t want to learn in a classroom anymore. I want to travel and talk to people and learn that way. I want to learn as I go,gathering knowledge and not being rigorously tested on...

[Sloane also bought the newer edition, which cost $120, back from students who had thrown away their receipts.] I shot a big wad, but it worked, … For me, it was more important that the...

I’m incredibly proud of these students.

Wolf’s wool is the best wool, but it cannot be sheared, because the wolf will not comply. With knowledge as with wolves’ surliness, the student studies voluntarily, refusing to be less than individual. He “gives...

We provide them opportunities to interact with their fellow students in a variety of ways, whether it’s athletics, academic competitions, student groups.

Using a service such as Chegg.com, students can save on average more than $600 a year when they rent textbooks over purchasing them.

We obviously don’t live in a perfect world. If we did, then my dad would never have volunteered for Vietnam so he could use the GI Bill to pay for college, Uncle Google would have...

I got an excuse this morning that students don’t want to get up that early. That’s what a father of two [Tech students] told me.

What the students and I talked about was that this meant they were all just so many handshakes away from Jesus. The thrill for me was seeing the sheer joy that the students felt. That...

We, Equality 7-2521, were not happy in those year in the Home of the Students. It was not that the learning was too hard for us. It was that the learning was too easy. This...

When our thousands of Chinese students abroad return home, you will see how China will transform itself.

Last year, millions of students didn’t graduate from high school. They didn’t drop out, they were simply in elementary and middle schools.

What you learn is your greatest treasure.

One key to student success: Learning requires effort and study.

Our strategy is to have students come from a seven- to 10-mile radius. The convenience of the commute is critical for us. It is all about proximity to rooftops.

I had assumed ‘a man’s character is his fate’ meant if my students worked hard they would get good grades, and if they were lazy they would fail—but any idiot could have seen that interpretation....

By the time these students enter the workforce, many of the jobs they will apply for ill be in industries that don’t even exist yet. That’s a hard future to prepare someone for. Teachers have...

Uniqueness of contribution will be a considered more often in the case of a tie between a few students. We also may have runners-up, depending on the number of nominations we get.

A true teacher defends his students against his own personal influences.

An exceedingly confident student would in theory make a terrible student. Why would he take school seriously when he feels that he can outwit his teachers?

Through the years, students in the musical programs at FSU have attended these concerts and some students have played at the post-concert reception,

As I understand it, students have been nauseous, vomiting, and had other flu-like symptoms.

[The instructors say it was clear that the students learned a great deal from the 10-week program.] You sort of see this light go off, … Their editing takes a huge leap. They start creating...

We give students a deadline by which they must have their pieces memorized. We suggest they set an amount of lines to be memorized for each day so that they are not caught short because...

It was only a couple of chickens. Real chickens. The kind that walk around clucking and pecking. Which is what they were doing. Only no one else seemed to care, or even notice. This is...

College towns [are] all the same in that way; same burger, different wrapper.

I use to think being a warning was not meant to be apart of anyone’s life purpose. However, how could you teach anything in life, without the deepest understanding of what not to do? Personally,...

I don’t want students to be bored in my classes.

It was a common complaint amongst the Arts students that their library was in dire need of refurbishment. To call the old building shabby chic was being kind. It didn’t have automated stacks or self-service...

One of the ironies of college is that the impossibility of reading your way out of the modern predicament is something you learn about, as a student, by reading. Part of the value of a...

They’re going to be Tech students in every sense.

Our faculty in some ways is answerable to students. The problem, of course, is where do you draw the line. It’s a fuzzy line, but there is a line.

Farid asked, ‘Do American teachers care about every student?’I thought about a humanities teacher I’d worked with in Korea and more recently a science teacher I’d worked with in Germany. I said, ‘I think most...

We will only charge the students who use these services. This is relatively inexpensive – it’s cheaper than co-pay.

It is not enough to simply listen to student voice. Educators have an ethical imperative to do something with students, and that is why meaningful student involvement is vital to school improvement.

I never write in a linear way. And I tell students not to. You can only know so much about a book when you first start.

I hadn’t gone to Andover, or Horace Mann or Eton. My high school had been the average kind, and I’d been the best student there. Such was not the case at Eli. Here, I was...

MENTOR signifies:M = MotivatorE = EmpowersN = NurtureT = Teacher O = Originator R = Role model

I meet them in this stadium, strangers at opposing desks until I wave my red flag.

It is a fantastic initiative by the ministry to develop Aakash Tablet, a mobile device that can be utilised by students anywhere. It was successfully tried out. The second and third versions have come out...

I spent half my childhood trying to be like my dad. True for most boys, I think. It turns with adolescence. The last thing I wanted was to be like my dad. It took becoming...

Sanabalis never seemed to eat, and he deflected most of her questions about Dragon cuisine. Then again, he deflected most of her questions about Dragons, period. Which was annoying because he was one, and could...

I really encourage supervisors to nominate their students. It’s a great way to recognize the great work they do.
