@EDHotTakes Knowledge in a domain can boost creativity long term.
English
Many teachers refuse to use multiple choice in their classrooms because it either “only allows surface level thinking,” enables “guessing,” “kills creativity,” and does not prepare students for “real world” situations. Multiple choice, if done well, can boost rigor ...
English
creativity, improve instruction, and help with advanced degrees.
The most straightforward criticism of multiple choice, guessing, if often a result of bad question design.

@FavoriteTeach11 @LJ198767 You’re happy with the sex trafficker as an AG pick? Tells me everything I need to know.

@LJ198767 YOU can be mad if you want. I'm happy over here. 🙌

The number of Black and White liberals who are "upset" that Trump hasn't yet appointed any Black individuals to his cabinet is ironic to me. It's as if they wouldn’t call them pick-me's, Uncle Tom's, and coons if he did. They also seem to be frustrated with Black conservatives and Republicans for not being outraged by this.
The Biden/Harris administration focused solely on fitting quotas. Look how that worked out for the inner cities...
Is it possible that we’re more concerned with Trump choosing the best people to get the job done rather than focusing solely on selecting a Black candidate?
OF COURSE, there are qualified Black men and women who I believe would be great assets to his team.
So, to all the “concerned” individuals worried about the lack of Black or Hispanic cabinet picks—his selections aren’t finalized yet. And if there ultimately aren’t any in his cabinet… so. 🤷🏿♀️

@therightreader @XVanFleet @Bakari_Sellers Which party do you think defends/supports the KKK more in present day? And which party do you think is more likely to defend slavery? 🤔 almost as if there was a party realignment…
English
Well, they are the party of slavery, Jim Crow, the KKK and segregation. So they are just defending their history, because it would be a huge blow to their narrative that out of the ugliness of slavery, there were blacks that were able to transform themselves into successful businessmen with the help of Republicans in the face of the Democrats that wanted to torch their businesses and burn their schools. It would blow the reparations narrative out of the water.

If slavery was so good, why didn’t white folk volunteer. This is asinine,

Watters: This is historical fact that slaves did develop skills while they were enslaved and then used those skills as blacksmiths, in agriculture, tailoring, in the shipping business, to benefit themselves and their families..

Today I announced that as Governor I will eliminate Indiana’s Office of Inclusion, Equity, & Opportunity.
It’s time to end programs that exist only to pander to identity politics.

What an interesting set of tweets!
For a note - any time you see a story with pictures but no actual news article attached, always be wary of the facts being presented. I did about 10 minutes of researching, and here's what I found.
Basing this off of:
Story here: euro.dayfr.com/local/553352.h…
Tweets from Victim: x.com/_a_nissan/stat… | x.com/_a_nissan/stat…
1) It wasn't a dozen North Africans, it was four.
2) She wasn't alone, she was either with her boyfriend, or with three friends, different stories report different facts.
3) We don't know why exactly the fight started, or which words exactly were exchanged.
4) It seems she did know what was happening, as words were exchanged before any fighting happened.
5) The victim herself is from North Africa, so "protect our natives from immigrants" doesn't even make sense, it was an immigrant who was attacked.
6) "Assassinate" is an insane word to use here, it doesn't seem like anyone knew each other before the scuffle.
Don't believe garbage like this that's posted. It's possible that the story is worse than what little I've gleaned so far, but we have to wait for more information to come out. There is absolutely no reason to post a set of pictures and a random story like this without providing any sources in the Tweet. Don't settle for garbage like this, demand sources.

A dozen of North Africans tried to assassinate a 19-year-old model in Toulouse, France, this past Wednesday because “she wasn’t dressing properly.” Her name is Anissa. When they started to follow her, she had no idea what was happening. They broke her nose, stabbed her, and disfigured the young woman having to receive more than 50 stitches throughout her body. Since most of them are minors, this attempted francocide will not have harsh consequences for the aggressors, while the young Anissa will bear a lifelong trauma. IMMIGRATION WITHOUT ASSIMILATION WILL NEVER WORK. CLOSE THE BORDERS.

Imagine calling a man willing to endure torture and death to save His loved ones, a beta male…

@EmilyPaducha @FavoriteTeach11 @Chrizzie1776 @Kelly4Humanity @VivekRamaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy That sounds like non local control
English
@EDHotTakes @FavoriteTeach11 @Chrizzie1776 @Kelly4Humanity @VivekRamaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy You enforce Epperson v Arkansas and you hold school boards accountable.
School children are being taught all sorts of theories that can’t be proven.
English
I sat down with presidential nominee @vivekramaswamy, with a focus on #KitchenTableIssues. It's refreshing to see a politician taking notes and listening to voters. I'm running for school board, so I had to discuss education. The next wave must be dual-track education. End the Federal Dept of Education. Return power to the states. #education #VivekRamaswamy #humanityassemble

@EmilyPaducha @FavoriteTeach11 @Chrizzie1776 @Kelly4Humanity @VivekRamaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy How do you prevent Alabama from teaching creationism in science class?
English
@FavoriteTeach11 @Chrizzie1776 @Kelly4Humanity @VivekRamaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy Carter wanted to centralize education at the Fed level while securing votes w Teacher’s Unions so he created the Dept of Ed. Things deteriorated quickly. Then NCLB under Bush and you know the rest…
Keep education at the local and state level with limited Fed oversight.

@ContrabandsM Sorry to hear this. That’s horrific. I hope you’re okay

I received a phone call less than 3 mins long. Its sole purpose was to inform me of a murder suicide involving a woman I know who was shot, stabbed, & lit on fire by her bf. She's still alive, & they're removing life support in a matter of hrs. Less than 3 mins to be told that...

@JoeyMannarinoUS Your entire account is being triggered by imaginary boogeymen.
English
@KevinTo46998360 @LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought Yeah… societal structures. History of marginalization, discrimination, mistreatment in schools, the exclusion of black teachers upon integration… there are reasons for all of these attitudes. It seems like you’ve never looked one layer deeper. Just ask “why” one more time 👍
English
@EDHotTakes @LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought Not sure what YOU mean by “societal structures” but, no y genetics. This is solvable of people do the work. Pre-natal nutrition; pursuit of education as a goal; high expectations; homework and more homework; classroom discipline being fostered; pride in achievement .
English
The proponents of "systemic racism" would prefer not to talk about the systems that caused this:

@KevinTo46998360 @LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought And culture is a product of… genetics? Or societal structures?
English
@EDHotTakes @LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought It’s not in the genetics. It’s in the culture of the communities. And very easy to c if one just opens one’s eyes enuff to C. Asian homework versus black homework. Asian emphasis on education versus black disdain and emphasis on anti-societal BS.
English
@KevinTo46998360 @LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought No child left behind is a factual basis for this. “Problems lie in the families and the communities” 🤔 could there be systemic issues behind this…or is it just in the genetics?
English
@LJ198767 @FreeBlckThought There is no factual basis for this. The system has favored black kids for 50 years. The problems lie in the families and the communities. Need much more homework. Need respect and desire for education; need to stop disrupting classes; need higher expectations; stop excuses
