"Teachers who blame students for being bored is the equivalent to yelling at the hammer after you strike your own thumb," declares Joe Bower, the man behind the convention-bucking blog For the Love of Learning.
At the heart of Bower's writing is a desire to rethink some of our most commonly held assumptions about teaching and learning in an effort to become more effective educators. Posts like "Blaming the Kids" challenge teachers to look inward at their own classroom practices, while "The Suits" explores the importance of experienced-based leadership and the problems with over-reliance on data.
