NSE's Discussion Blog: The Mobile Principal
http://nsedesign.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-mobile-principal.html
Learning - Character - Community - JOY. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. In addition, I recently asked one of our related arts teaching assistants to teach via a mobile learning cart. She is now a “mobile teacher”, right? Being more mobile, available, and present will hopefully help staff and students feel more supported instructionally, personally, and professionally. It will also give me a better understanding of the quality of our school and what we need to do as we move forward as a learning organization.

Learning - Character - Community - JOY. Sunday, August 28, 2016. Exponential Problem with PBL. I was talking to a group of students this week at NSE. One of the students was talking about how hard it was to understand exponents in math. I asked her when she might need to use exponents in real life. She went on to say that, ".all you all really want is the right answer, right? You give us the problem or question and we have to give you the answer." I tried to save the day and say, "No!
