Had to be a turquoise zebra, didn’t it …. Had to mention it in your post …. I’m now in the ‘Turquoise Zebra Society” with you! I propose that all who would join TZS find a situation for which ‘Turquoise Zebra’ is the situation’s code, known only TZS members.

Back to the thoughts in our heads. An example for me: I honestly think quite frequently about the following: I can facilitate teacher professional development (and student skills development directly as well) that will enable students to take control of their learning — improving their learning while in school and their preparation for the lifelong learning that’s so critical to success in their careers and personal lives, however they choose to define success.

Quite ambitious right??? So rather than trying to get this thought out of my mind — for reasons I believe appropriate to me (as I have done, unsuccessfully), you suggest I should embrace the idea AND Consider options for my initiating efforts to address it.

Right???
