Fostering a Culture of Error

Last April, the TLAC team visited California where we spent two days with Aspire Public Schools. We worked on creating a strong Culture of Error – a classroom environment that is strategically engineered to encourage students to take academic risks in order to uncover and correct misunderstandings. Michelle Flores sent us a picture of a bulletin board in her classroom that she uses to celebrate students who make and then learn from their mistakes. Thank you, Michelle and Aspire!
