My colleague and good friend Stephanie has deemed me the “hyperthinker” because whenever we are in a professional development session I am constantly jotting down questions I would like to continue to think about, quotes I like, thoughts I have about what is being said, connections I am making, ideas I would like to use, and how the ideas will enhance my teaching and student learning.…
