“Teaching disruptively, then, has nothing to do with you. You’ll know it when you’ve found it because it won’t suggest ‘disruption’ at all. Instead, you’ll see the rising of a kind of slow ash—of new ideas that aren’t always packaged how you asked, and don’t always do what you want them to do.”

To get the best work from students, authentic ‘voice and choice’ matter and a big part of this is leaving ‘room for interpretation’ in the assignment. Those gray areas can confuse students unaccustomed to agency and choice, but once they become comfortable with it, it can be a significant factor in helping them show what their ‘best’ actually is.

Below, I’ve offered 20 strategies for getting the best work from your students. Some are obvious (provide student choice) and many you may already do. The idea here is to clarify the kinds of teaching practices and learning strategies that give your students the best chance to do their best–to consistently do their very best work, and grow the most as students over the course of a school year.

Typical strategies for getting the best work from students focus on extrinsic motivation and gamification—points, grades, badges, certificates, stars, trophies, glowing feedback, encouragement, pep talks, ‘pressure,’ and other ways to motivate students. That these strategies are underwhelming in effect–and tend to not yield the life-long learners education seeks to create–shouldn’t be surprising.
