I don’t even have the words for not having any words. We stick together. Breathe. Keep the patient comfortable. Feel like shit. Take care of the poor, each other and ourselves. Look around for all the light that remains and can never go out. Sending you all a big quavering hug.

@stefwithanfany @splcenter Oh no! Learning for Justice is an invaluable resource -- reaching and supporting so many educators at a time when K-12 teachers need MORE, not less support to teach truthfully in the face of anti-history & anti-LGBTQ+ laws and book bans.

ICYMI: we built a Flip importer. Access it at padlet.com/flip-importer Thanks for testing it. We learn and improve with every import. There are fewer bugs now. The largest import so far was over 3GB and took less than 3 minutes to upload.

@MicrosoftFlip @techcoachjuarez What I fear you're missing here is that it isn't about the camera or asking students to submit a video to a teacher. Flip was about community - and about the ways in which a collective could engage in discussion together. That's far from what you're describing.

@techcoachjuarez While we understand this is upsetting for our Google Community members, educators can still access the Flip camera inside Teams for Edu. This option is free for eligible schools, providing a safe & secure environment for video discussions using the same Flip camera you love.

The Flip Camera is moving to Teams for Education, we are retiring our web and mobile apps. Now, you can just click on Assignments inside Teams, and select video from the dropdown menu to send and receive video assignments with your students. Learn more on Flip.com.

The @IRCSchools Board voted against the committee decision to retain @AlanGratz’s Ban This Book. They banned a book because it mentions other banned books. It’s truly absurd.

Folks, if you won't be able to use Flip now that it is moving to Microsoft Teams, you can use Padlet for video discussions. We are also working on a Flip importer that should be out before the end of the week.

Flip (previously Flipgrid) is being discontinued. The site and apps will not be available after September 2024. 😢 Padlet is an alternative. Students can add videos of themselves to a post using Padlet's Video Booth. #webcam_videos" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">padlet.help/l/en/article/d…

Adam Grant@AdamMGrant·
If you want people to listen to your opinions, try presenting them as advice. Opinions are easy to discount because they sound self-centered: "I'm expressing myself." Advice is more trustworthy because it's other-focused. It conveys an intent to help: "Here's an idea for you."

@MattRKay Teacher education programs also have accrediting bodies and required standards - in many states, there is input from the legislature, the professional standards commission, the state DOE. A LP template comes from many sources that aren't us... Are you talking with your COEs?

Too many educators, intimidated by the magic phrase "science of learning," swallow dubious claims by proponents of traditional teaching. My new blog post looks at one example: "Cognitive Load Theory: An Unpersuasive Attempt to Justify Direct Instruction" - alfiekohn.org/blogs/clt/
