13. Glickman (p.13) states,” Educators are the primary stewards of the
democratic spirit. The total of our efforts is far greater than the
particulars of our job.”
Ginsberg reminds us that motivated teachers have motivated learners
and that the whole activity of education is ethical and political in
nature (p.5).
What type of society do we desire?
What type of educational environment should supervision promote in order to
move us toward the society we desire?
Q: As a teacher and emerging leader, what are your core values?

15. “The best thing about being sad,” replied Merlin, beginning
to puff and blow, is to learn something. That is the only
thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in
your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the
disorder in your veins, you may miss your only love, you
may see the world devastated by evil lunatics, or know
your honor trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is
only one thing for it then-to learn. Learn why the world
wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the
mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured
by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting.
Learning is the thing for you.”

29. “The stories people tell have a way of taking
care of them. If stories come to you, care for
them. And learn to give them away where
they are needed. Sometimes a person needs a
story more than food to stay alive. That is why
we put these stories in each other’s memory
This is how people care for themselves. One
day you will be good storytellers. Never forget
these obligations.”

SETTING THE STAGE FOR SHADOWING:
32. Although theory enhances the
durability of professional learning,
imagination guides its implementation
to connect the dots between students,
curriculum, instruction, the school
environment-and a continuous sense of
opportunity.

39. Our attitudes, beliefs, language, and actions
are shaped by our cultural assimilations:
Culture and motivation are inseparable
influences on learning (Ginsberg, 2011)
Diversity in educational contexts requires
constructive action to change ideas and
attitudes that perpetuate the exclusion of
underserved groups and significantly challenge
their motivation to learn (Ginsberg & Wlodkowski, 2009)
