Over the past few weeks I have had conversations with numerous teachers and administration, and a common question keeps coming to life, "How do we elevate the quality of our students work?"
To me this is a great question and one every teacher should be asking and striving towards. As educators we are constantly trying to get the most out of our students and lets be honest we are never going to get 100% effort 100% of the time. But I do feel we can get more out of our students and ourselves by doing one simple thing... PUBLISH
It is a simple concept, the more people who are viewing and reading ones work, the more care and effort we are going to put forth. When students create work for a single teacher it tends to be GOOD ENOUGH, when they create it for the world to see it will be GREAT!
The publishing process does not need to be hard or complex, it could be as simple as putting it on Twitter, a blog, or website. I will guarantee once the individual knows their product will be published for the world to see the quality of work will be GREAT!
