Listen to the hurt and frustration in this teacher’s voice. Because she works in a system that asks her to manage the behaviour of the complex sea of humanity with no tools or systems to keep safety, dignity and order. Because the default mechanism she’s allowed to use to respond to disruption is a restorative chat and little else.

Think the kid was high-school age. The age when daughter's girl friends jokingly gave her most likely to become a serial killer. In public she's relatively quiwt, stoic & inscrutable. Do some teachers become their pupils, or does teaching select for less grown up?
Katharine Birbalsingh@Miss_Snuffy

Teacher makes a 6 year old a certificate saying he is ‘Most likely to become a dictator’ because of his conservative values. I have been warning against for decades. The future of western civilisation is in the hands of our teachers. 😳

@cbokhove @rastokke @greg_ashman Was there an urgent reason for your original vague comment, which appears to have been crafted as an invitation to readers to impute *something*? I just want receipts. How many mathematicians are doing that & what are they asserting should happen at the chalkface?

@rastokke @greg_ashman Incorrect Anna. Firstly, Greg has a tendency to impute his own 'speculations', see my timeline for quite positive comments on how you engage with the field, although imo a bit one-sided.

I wonder why mathematics professors with little or no experience in schools think they know how best to teach mathematics in schools.

@theenglishwitc1 @Miss_Snuffy 22yo daughter has a shiny maths degree, but one of her other talents us that she can write extremely well. Suppose she got to wring a few years of glory from that. Oh well. Perhaps she can learn to write less well to head off accusations of using AI.

AI detectors don’t work because they’re, uh, AI. And AI was trained with the best of texts which is why people often get accused of using AI when they just have good SPaG. It’s a mess at the moment, but students who use AI for essays will end up being exposed in exams or in their careers.

You hear this and students will rightly conclude that they would be better off using AI for their university essays. End of education! 😳

@drhingram Oh. We got caught by one taking 3-4 year-old daughter to closest neighbourhood park to try bike riding. They blurred & disappeared us at some point. Still visible from a virtual distance but we fade away if you get up that close.

Had to think about that because it requires good-enough AI almost 3 years ago, but yes it probably was. Won't just be humanities w. associated trouble, although will obviously be less for courses w. lots of traditional terminal exams in halls.
Natasha Porter OBE@NPorter_

Some people will be graduating university with humanities degrees this summer who have never written an essay themselves. AI has made cheating the best option for a median level university student, says @daisychristo in her keynote at @researchEDGsy

FWIW that took a few rounds of "No, only change the colour of the flag material to white. Do not change their jacket. Do not change the pole. Do not..." w. Grok. Turned into a kind of Dr Seuss story. I do not like that GrokAI. Change the flag Not the sky

Lord Smith is right - this is naive folly given endemic test fraud in many countries, worsened by new tech, plus the huge incentive of access to British welfare and public services - already a lifetime benefit of almost £1m for some migrants. Think again. telegraph.co.uk/gift/d6c271c89…

Weak education claims can spread fast. 🌪️📚 Flawed ideas get repeated until they’re treated as fact. I call this The Wildfire Effect. 🔗 Link below #ChalkandTalk #MathEducation #ScienceOfLearning

"One common tactic is shifting the burden of proof: when someone makes a radical claim but refuses to provide evidence, instead throwing the burden of proof onto you." This has happened to me: barrygarelick.substack.com/p/research-say… @rastokke's piece is excellent! @tombennett71 @brian_poncy

My personal experience sent me down a rabbit hole that I'm still in today, reading education research critically and asking hard questions. I wrote about what I've learned in a guest post for the Center for Educational Progress. 🎧Prefer to listen? It's in today's podcast episode. I hope it helps people. 🔗Links below

We have a new fidget spinner.
Rachel Maclean@redditchrache

I recently spoke to a teacher of 35 years from a school in my former constituency Redditch. She said many children in classrooms who have been labelled neurodiverse are being given dummies to keep them quiet (aka "chew toys") I do find this incomprehensible. How and when did we as a society decide that children as old as 9 or 10 needed to chew dummies in order to be educated? My contact also said that in her view there was nothing medically wrong with these children but they were poorly parented and badly served by the whole system that is telling them there is a medical thing wrong with them. She said she can't freely express her views in the classroom for fear of being ostracised or losing her job. I've written about the SEND system on my substack. I think it is important we approach this debate with understanding but at the same time we should not seek to silence extremely experienced people who have decades of classroom experience. @rachelhmaclean/p-189963484" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@rachelhmaclea…
