The harsh reality of vaccine inequity: the rate of booster doses in high-income countries is approaching the low-income countries primary dose rate. This injustice costs lives and livelihoods and only prolongs the pandemic. #VaccinEquity pandem-ic.com/vaccine-equity…

💉 6.7 billion COVID vaccine doses have been administered 👥 48% of world population with at least 1 dose 🌍 Share with at least 1 dose High-income countries: 70% Upper-middle income: 65% Lower-middle income: 34% Low income: 2% Our data on vaccinations: ourworldindata.org/covid-vaccinat…

Hospitals are not the place for anti-vaccination protests.

Disappointing news. 1. There is decent data to support #COVID19 vaccine boosters for select populations (e.g. immunocompromised) but it's a stretch to extend this to everyone. 2. Billions in low/middle income countries are waiting for 1st doses while getting throttled by Delta.

No 2 tip for teachers wanting to get students to engage in mathematical discourse. Mind the Cognitive Load. If the tool being used is new to students, lower the cognitive demand of the math. If the math is new, use tools they already know how to use. #mathequity #iteachmath

Chatting with a 3rd grader who is clearly a brilliant THINKER. Telling me the trauma of doing timed math facts. PLEASE I BEG YOU TO STOP TIMING KIDS. as @joboaler says... "Being fast is not the same as being smart "

To be clear, I freakin’ love vaccines. I’m also a student of human nature. 2 POINTS: despite opening availability, vaccine supply is variable. It may take awhile yet to get doses into arms. We KNOW risk taking behaviour goes up after vaccination though it’s protection takes 2 wks

Thank you to everyone who participated in CCSD’s consultative process on the draft curriculum to share their thoughts. After review, #CCSD WILL NOT PILOT the draft curriculum.@Alberta_UCP @AlbertaEd @AdrianaLaGrange @Alberta_UCP @CCSD_edu

@CCSD_edu do you want to learn about how to use purposeful digital lessons in your class? Join me tonight with the U of C as we explore engaging ways to integrate meaningful digital lessons.

mathematical atrocities in this #abed #curriculum. I have worked on #math curriculum development in Alberta through 3 governments, none have been perfect, but this one is astonishingly offensive and gets me upset - the impact on teachers and students will be negative. end/

@rmarynow Thank you so much Richelle for this review. I will be sharing with my colleagues :)

My thoughts regarding the draft K-6 #math #curriculum released by #abed: In the subject introduction, there is a major focus on procedures and skills with a token nod to mathematical understanding; procedures, "foundational skills", and "standard algorithms" are the focus 1/
