Looking for #BookRecommendations and prefer non-fiction history, leadership, or some more recent YA books that students might be reading

@MLB Lifetime fan of @Cardinals

@Talkatone Talkatone hasn't worked for me and it's been 6 days. Are there any updates? Is the business folding? Do I need to seek an alternative for a number I've had for years?

Talkatone is experiencing a temporary issue that is affecting some users' calling and texting features. Our team is looking into this. We'll update you as soon as we have any word on the matter.

@SalVetriDFS McConkey

You're on the clock in a fantasy league. Who are you taking between: • Tee Higgins • Rashee Rice • Ladd McConkey • Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Basketball is played WITH the basketball 5% of the time. One of my favorites quotes from Billy Donovan is: ‘The other 95% of the time most players spend trying to get the basketball’. Players also can’t conceptualize the amount of time they have the ball in their hands in a game. They think it’s exponentially more than it actually is. The ball is glorified, and rightfully so, but what are we doing with the other 95%? Do be ELITE REQUIRES impacting the game without the basketball. The video below is a MUST WATCH for all players and coaches 👇 🎥 @chicagobulls

@JoelCressman Gold!

I still get nervous when presenting to a room of peers. What’s the ultimate fear? Hearing something like this 😂: “Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

13 years ago today: a game so great that it’s simply known as game 6

@ronniecharrier Oh? Maybe I’ll see you then!

Little weekend trip over to Shanghai ✌️

Simply put: When I plan to teach, I'm focused on what I will be saying, instructing, assigning, & assessing. But when I design for learning, I'm focused on what learners will be discussing, engaging with, creating evidence for, self-assessing. Learning isn't about me.

You can see this Seoul late night self-driving taxi here at Gangnam-gu district weekdays(23:00~05:00 KST). It has a person on driver's seat in case of safety issues. #SelfDriving

Norm #3 (phone free schools) is happening at lightning speed. Norm #1 (no smartphones until age 14) is happening too, as parents and school districts take collective action. Great example in the UK:

About half of Gen Z wishes TikTok (47%) and X (50%) didn’t exist (via social psychologist Jonathan Haidt and the Harris Poll) fortune.com/well/article/n…

Excellent read.

@wellnerj @ronniecharrier @YondrOver Phone free in the middle school here!

@ronniecharrier @Slaid_Jim We just did it here at ISP. @YondrOver bags for everyone in grades 6-12.

Such a clear discussion of why we need to regulate. If we care about young people and their future, we need to act now. #socialmedia #phonefree

This is so good by @JamesClear

@teambond The Anxious Generation is an excellent read. I’ll checkout Unreasonable Hospitality! Thanks for recommending.

@Slaid_Jim Unreasonable Hospitality is good…from a management/customer service/ employee retention perspective. Anxious Generation for kids/smartphones.

Looking for #BookRecommendations - history of Singapore -leadership -education -current YA books -history in general -books by authors from a wide range of bs grounds Thx in advance!

With some parents using tablets as digital pacifiers to soothe their children, a new study finds preschoolers who spend 75 minutes or more in front of a screen showed increased anger and frustration as they got older, along with difficulties in regulating their emotions.
