  In Fraud We Trust - How Leaders...

  Telling lies, and falling for them, is one of the things that makes us human. But when someone deceives another for material gain or profit, inflicting injury in the process, we give this kind of lie a special label: fraud. 
   
   
   
  Most people are familiar with the concept and understand that fraud is prohibited by law. What many fail to appreciate, however, is that the law does not treat all frauds equally. In a perverse sense, the bigger the fraud, the more likely it is protected by the First Amendment and therefore legal. 
   
   
   
  Examples of fraud on the public are everywhere. Politicians on both sides of the aisle lie with such regularity that people have become deeply cynical about whether to believe anything they say. Henricksen shows that large-scale fraud is carried out for many reasons beyond financial profit, including political gain, the prevention of justice, and the falsification of history. 
   
   
   
  In addition to exposing the depths of the problem, Henricksen gives listeners a way forward. By revealing for the first time the root legal cause of the misinformation crisis and presenting novel solutions, In Fraud We Trust speaks to the present moment as it offers answers for the future.

  What are the secrets to unlocking student success? And what can teachers do to get better at helping students develop a deep understanding of content, attain higher-order thinking skills, and become secure, confident, and capable learners? 
  In this book, teacher and professor Jeff Marshall showcases how teaching with intentionality answers these questions. Specifically, he introduces the Teacher Intentionality Practice Scale (TIPS), a framework for both supporting and measuring effective teaching. Taken together, the framework's seven TIPs provide a research-based, classroom-tested guide to help teachers. 
  create coherent, connected lessons;use strategies and resources, including technology, that truly enhance learning;organize a safe, respectful learning environment;develop challenging and rigorous learning experiences;promote interactive, thoughtful learning;nurture a creative, problem-solving classroom culture; anddeliver feedback and formative assessment that inform teaching and learning. 
   
  Marshall's needs-assessment instrument can help teachers, working independently or in a cohort, determine the best starting point for improving their practice. Practical, straightforward rubrics for each TIP describe the various levels of teacher proficiency. Based on his own teaching experience and observations in hundreds of classrooms, Marshall also offers action tips for each framework component and a list of resources for further study. Written for teachers and leaders at all levels and in all content areas, The Highly Effective Teacher is a guidebook for thoughtful, intentional teaching with one goal: success for all students, in every classroom.

  After a memorable night with my straighter than straight friend, Milton, who I had loved for years, a minor accident happened the next morning, causing me to lose a small portion of my memory. Though I regained them within a couple of days, I debated on whether I should keep it a secret or not. We both felt uncomfortable afterwards, so I wondered if feigning ignorance was the right choice and if it was, what was to come next?
