Elizabeth Tait TC Ch. 7 Summary

Chapter Summary: These ignitions don't have to come from chance.  Ignitions can be created!  The KIPP schools are showing that.  The KIPP schools showcase how a rigid system of precision can ignite excitement for deep practice, through a long term goal: college.  KIPP uses precision to ignite a sense of belonging in the students.  With that sense of belonging, KIPP teachers help the students deep practice skills that will make them academically successful. 
Key Concepts: Myelination requires constant signals pointing in the same direction
Key Terms:
not any new ones. 
Making Connections: Is my goal as clear as those kids at KIPP?  I don't think so.
