Annice Brave, 2010 Illinois Teacher of the Year (and finalist for national teacher of the year), and her planning partner Jeff Hudson (@jhudson55) co-plan on Google Drive. These 20 year veteran teachers from Alton High School in Illinois talk about how this technique has pushed their thinking and helps them be better teachers. Annice also shares some about the evolution of journalism in her school (they partnered with a college and have a radio station) and the unique way they allow students to self-select for the honors program that helps include more minorities in the program. She also shares some astounding research on test scores being stronger for journalism students than AP students. (Here’s the link to that information.)

Vicki Davis

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki
