TCEA is coming up fast. It will be an amazing opportunity to reconnect and discover new ideas. I am happy to share that I too will be contributing to this learning community. I hope to see you all. #TCEA #EducationForAll #Iteachmath

After a long but rewarding day at #springcue, it's time to rewind with new friends and a bucket of Lego.

@GigglingGanon @sxdoc Make this goes viral

We need to get the word out on this to everyone you know esp females. 👀🔥 Of course I've already shared this with my daughters and you should too. This is from Texas, but it's happening nation wide and folks need to be aware of the warning signs. These are just a couple of the methods in play right now. Time to raise awareness. 👇

@GigglingGanon @oX_Bat_Xo Shared to get this out there. It's crazy the tricks that these people use to do evil in our world. People need to be careful and watch their surroundings.👀

@GigglingGanon All girls/ women need to start carrying disposable gloves. Put on the gloves, remove the item quickly and get out of there because they are watching your car!

I have arrived. CALIFORNIA! Here I come. First it's Spring CUE, then the beach. Looking forward to meeting all the fun people here, and discovering new ideas. Of course 😁 #springcue #teacherlife #edtech

New study involving 770 high school students over 5 months across 10 schools. All students got the same lectures, course material, and GenAI tutor. The only difference: half received a fixed sequence of practice problems (easy to hard, standard practice), while the other half had their problem sequence dynamically personalized by a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm. The result: students with adaptive sequencing scored 0.15 standard deviations higher on an in-person, handwritten final exam: no devices, no AI assistance. By some estimates, that's equivalent to 6–9 months of additional schooling. No extra instruction time or additional teacher workload. Beginners with no prior experience saw the largest gains (0.215 SD). Students at lower-tier schools benefited more than those at elite schools. linkedin.com/posts/johnbail…

Without question, this is one of the worst things I’ve read online in a while… I wish I could say don’t read it, but you really need to. I’m so tired of watching our labor be used to create horrifying conditions for humanity for the perverse enrichment of a handful of billionaires.

@jmattmiller Really great suggestions!

Teachers: If students are over using AI, let's turn the tables on them ... This activity can be FUN ... and talk about your content ... AND help students analyze and think deeply. This is one idea in a series I'm doing on keeping students thinking in the AI age. #teacher #teachersfollowteachers #teacherlife #edtech #aiineducation

@SAJ03224 @djoyousone @Raindropsmedia1 @grok Teacher Unions in Texas don't have any power. They are a lobbyist group at best. In theory they can provide you legal advice and support, but it is without any teeth.

@djoyousone @Raindropsmedia1 @grok do teachers belong to a Union in Texas

Houston teacher was forced to resign because she took 2 unpaid days off to care for her sick newborn—having a baby used up all her PTO. And she needed a whole U-Haul to take her stuff with her while clearing out her classroom. 👀😳💔

@ICT_MrP Believe it or not, the kids haven't changed But the number of new teachers trying to support new teachers in an environment where teachers are negatively targeted by vocal politicians is the new norm for teaching.

For any teacher or school staff member of over 15 years, what’s the biggest difference about teaching now to when you first started?

@TheFigen_ @ElizaWallace27 This is AI. It is not real. Look closely. Sadly, we have reached a point where you cannot believe what you see in images or videos anymore.

This hero saved a life.

🚨HOLY SH*T🚨 This is absolutely terrifying…ESPECIALLY if you have children. Omg…this makes me rethink everything❗️ Is anything safe, anymore?

We caved. The Rooftop Revival featuring the best BBQ and party supplies at @TCEA. Real brisket. Real piñatas. We’re doing this @briskteaching. No turning back. We'll be studying our diplomacy skills prior to arrival.

As educators, we are a learning community and Facilitating PD should foster that community. A successful learning experience is one that amplifies all the expert voices in the room and transfers knowledge and guidance in a supportive manner.

It was one small thing that gave her hope she could travel a different path. A book. Last night, she may have become that one small thing for others. She shared her tangible examples of her successful process, and answered questions. The teachers connected at a deep level.

Last night I facilitated PL on collaboration, and I may have witnessed a transformative moment for teachers in real time as one teacher shared tangible examples on how she went from struggle to success. Her authentic voice was inspirational. 1/3🧵 #Learning #teachers
