Love the quote

@christen_rexing @anup_malani @SUNY You as well!

@CaseyJ_edu @anup_malani @SUNY Casey!!! Great seeing you!

The college that does the most to lift poor kids into the middle class probably isn't one you've heard of. It's not Harvard. It's not MIT. It might be a CUNY campus.

Publishing requires a lot of emotional labor. Absorbing other people's disappointment. Managing your own. I'm in a tired stretch and I think a lot of people I know are too.

Amen. Youth sports out of control.

@FixingEducation Natural experiment. School admin went out mid year. Sub admin brought in. Climate of building changed positive. Then the old admin came back. In 1 week the whole situation reverted back to bad/ negative. Sometimes the situation is literally one person. Usually admin

A friend of mine switched school districts because things weren’t going well. He felt drained and disrespected. Nine months later, he admitted: The district wasn’t the problem. Anyone else had a similar experience?

Sitting by a window is associated with significantly improved cognitive performance.

Book reviews are incredibly hard to find for authors. Remember to leave a review after your next read kind readers :)

In university, you are either struggling academically, financially, emotionally, or all 3.

@mrmikeMTL Qualified but nope.

tell an unbelievable story in 3 words

@Jason_Chiasson @ThePhDPlace You are the expert in your research. You know more, and need to explain the "so what" to others. Do not be shy, do not hesitate. Write and share beyond academics!

@ThePhDPlace A teacher told me once "Computer science is full of surface debaters. The science doesn't need another debater, you need to bring the answer to end the debate" It lowered my anxiety and I slowed down for sure

What’s a piece of feedback that changed how you think about your work?

@MonteSyrie In my book A cog in the machine, I write about my experience . Bullying exists because the power dynamics. You stand up to a Bullying system or person, abd they win. The system is rigged to the powerful. So I found my now happy place. And I tell my tale.

What has life taught you about… bullies? Posting a daily question to inspire reflection and connection. We all learn from experience. We all are human. What might we all learn from our experiential existence? What has life taught you? #ExperienceHumanity

whenever we have conversation about teacher pay, I think we forget that even though most teachers aren't paid particularly well, there are states where it's shockingly abysmal. in my county in NC, you cap out at about ~$60k....after 25+ years of teaching.

Do you have what it takes to write your own book?

@ThePhDPlace Rural school democracy

Describe your PhD in 3 words. No explanations.

@FixingEducation The theme was Survivor!

Teachers, Day 1 of Teacher Appreciation Week… what did you get?

In the midst of the largest teacher shortage in North Carolina history, East Carolina University has cut bachelor programs in English Education, Mathematics Education, and History Education. The sirens are going off. Are you listening and paying attention? #nced #ncpol #ncleg

@palan57 Excellent article on Rural Education! I have publications on rural education as well

When the editor publishes on their own journal

All year long they encourage us to think of our building and neighborhood as home. Only for transfer season to hit when they remind us we are employed by the district and can be sent to the other side of the city with no explanation.
