    Educators' Changing Views on Humility, Humble Bragging and Sharing Successes Through Social Media

    It's a relatively new phenomenon: educators sharing their successes on social media. For some this is a major breach of the humility many educators feel is required of those in the profession. But a new generation of educators is pushing back on this notion and using PR and marketing strategies to brand their schools and tell their stories. We invited five educators on the leading edge of this issue to talk with uncommon candor about the culture clash between traditional educator values and those of the social media culture.

    Confession: I Don't Like All of My Students and Some I Really Dislike

    It is a generally accepted belief that teachers should love working with all of their kids. Fact is, sometimes teachers don't like some of the kids in a classroom and sometimes teachers may even dislike an entire class, but are hesitant to admit this. This often creates deep feelings of shame, dissonance and doubts about being fit to teach. Our panel talks openly about this dilemma.
