@JoeGaitanbh @BullTheoryio Yeah because foreign aid USA the problem not the defense spending. 😄

BREAKING: China has told domestic banks to stop adding and begin reducing exposure to U.S. Treasuries. This removes a steady source of foreign demand for U.S. government debt. Lower external demand for Treasuries can push yields higher and increase U.S. borrowing costs over time.

How many squares....!!! 99.9% will fail..?

@Matt_Pinner 19, we weren't rich enough to get waterbeds.

I got only 3 point. You?

@adamboxer1 @LehrerCymo @CathyPotter24 @MrZachG @Doug_Lemov @Mr_Raichura Adam, how is it different from cold calling?

@LehrerCymo @CathyPotter24 @MrZachG @Doug_Lemov @Mr_Raichura (please note of course that Name at End is not the same as Lemov's Cold Call, but in this case the principle is the same: expecting all students to be listening and participating in questioning)

Getting backlash in the German teacher bubble for explaining my approach on Cold Calling as black pedagogy for denying independence. My approach basically covers @Doug_Lemov approach including no opt out and a tip from @adamboxer1 How does one stand against that? @MrZachG

@Mark__Lawrence He is gorgeous though!

Wobble wants to know who decided that he gets to wear a fur coat through all this heat.

@Zepp1978 The Lot Lands trilogy is soo good. You're in for a treat!

My June reading plans. What do you have in deck?

@RTLBoulevard Eerste aflevering gezien met Boszhard en wat was hij verschrikkelijk irritant. De hele tijd negatieve opmerkingen maken tegen de kandidaten, op een negatieve manier pushen dat mensen doorgaan. Maar het ergste van allemaal is de ongelofelijke nepstem die hij steeds opzet.

@tombennett71 There are already lots of schools that do not have classrooms but where students work mostly independently. With some coaches (teachers or teaching assistants) on standby should they get stuck. That coach might as well be an AI coach.

The claim that AI will ever replace teachers is nonsense, and always will be. Because no AI can manage behaviour in a classroom setting. You can sequence a curriculum precisely, deliver content carefully, but if the student doesn’t want to participate, none of it will happen.

@CuriousKing_ @LordGrimdark I just can't stop staring at the humongous hands on these characters.

The public pre-order for Last Argument of Kings by @LordGrimdark , lovingly published by ourselves and illustrated by Greg Manchess is now live! After a ferocious rights holder period for those with Series Rights, we have 2 Lettered, 9 Deluxe and 32 Standard Editions up for grabs. curiousking.co.uk/last-argument-…

@GianmarcoSoresi Will you also be going to the Edinburgh Fringe in August? Would love to see you there!

It’s time to bring it back

@SciInTheMaking Instead of only mentally rephrasing it, let them tell another student the rephrased information before having them write it on their flashcards. That way any omissions on unclearities became readily apparent.

3. Next, I asked students to look at their highlighted sections and mentally rephrase the information as if they were explaining it to a 10-year-old. Why? Because copying answers does not lead to understanding.

2. I provided them with guiding questions and instructed them to highlight the answers in the article and annotate. But not to write down the answers yet. I know what you might be thinking. Highlighting is not effective. I know. STAY WITH ME. docs.google.com/document/d/1_E…

@SciInTheMaking The spaced retrieval practice is the most important part to get to actual learning (change in long term memory) instead of just understanding which is what you tested in class with the low stakes quiz. It looks like an excellent setup.

8. After studying the flashcards, students took a low stakes quiz to assess their understanding of the strategies. To ensure long-term retention and implement spaced practice, this content will be periodically revisited throughout the semester.

7. With a partner, students used the flashcards to practice: Retrieval Practice: Quizzing each other without looking at the answers. Interleaving Practice: Shuffling the cards to mix up the questions for a varied review.

@binding_broken Thank you, finally I can display these awesome books properly!

We are excited to reveal our special edition set of the War for the Rose Throne by Peter McLean💚🥳 As huge fans of this series, we are happy to finally be bringing the last two books into hardback!

@DidactiefOnline Het is een beetje een nutteloze discussie. Wij hebben in Nederland al altijd scholen gehad gebaseerd op een geloofsovertuiging. Dus leerlingen worden altijd al geïndoctrineerd.

Anouk Zuurmond en Piet van der Ploeg schreven een fijne longread waarin ze ingaan op de vraag: Hoe politiek mag #onderwijs zijn? Anouk Zuurmond en Piet van der Ploeg over #klimaatspijbelen: #burgerschap of #indoctrinatie? didactiefonline.nl/blog/blonz/hoe…

@QEisenacher It is funny how one idiot's uneducated comment sparks so many reactions. Maybe we should go back to the good old days were idiots were ignored.

There are shenanigans going on about cozy fantasy and how it's corporate garbage but if you want to read a book you can hate for coziness you should check out MY books about middle-aged ladies and baby dragons, they will make you FUME (after I've taken your money, of course.)

@CasperHuls Hij heeft niet met alles ongelijk. We verdienen zat, de werkdruk is ook lang niet zo hoog (in het VO) als iedereen doet voorkomen en het zou mooi zijn als men ophoudt met constant te klagen.

"Brief van de dag". Rob mag even vol op het orgel over 'het onderwijs'.

@Mark__Lawrence That's an excellent cover! I love that you picked the art of a fan for this.
