Superintendent Rainey Briggs was attacked during the Baraboo High School graduation. The unnamed attacker, was a “father” who didn’t want his graduating daughter to shake the hand of a Black man, so he ruined her moment That’s racism for you in 2024 #Graduation #Fight

Wouldn’t a good compromise alternative to student loan forgiveness just be to make the loans interest-free so people are just paying back what they borrowed? Paying down just a little bit of principal over decades is not fair or equitable - but neither is giving it away for free.

Weve been working on our final project for a few weeks now. Kids done little to nothing, no laptop, but yes cell phone. Finally today she really looked at how much more she needed to do, started crying and went to the office. Counselor: Is there any way we can cut her a break?

@SEANJFAHEY @jmattmiller @MicrosoftFlip Yep. And my prediction is that they will do the same with Minecraft Education soon. Microsoft has always seen Minecraft as something to prop up their other weak products.

@jmattmiller @MicrosoftFlip Not just about cutting cost, but this is an attempt to convince/force schools with MS accounts to use Teams as an LMS or edu tool.

So, make this make sense ... "In order to streamline the number of apps educators need to use in their classroom ..." @MIcrosoftFlip is taking an app available to anyone via web and mobile ... and locking it inside of Microsoft Teams. To streamline the number of apps. Don't insult our intelligence. Say it like it is. You're cutting costs, cutting people, and cutting an incredible product that you don't think supports the bottom line. Disappointing.

🪦Jamboard 🪦Scribble Diffusion 🪦Twitter Chats 🪦ClassCraft 🪦Flip Always a challenge for busy teachers to keep pace in ever changing times. Doubly frustrating when we devote large portions of our PD time, funding, and training efforts to ed tech tools that suddenly vanish.

@rmbyrne I love how they strategically waited until The end of school to tamp down the inevitable outrage.

I've got to hand it to you @Microsoft. After all these years, you still excel at ruining things. Goodbye @MicrosoftFlip. What a great touch to wait until school let out. Now those of us who help teachers with tech get to drop that on them right when they get back from break. Fun!

@RikVigorous @NoStressTech @FixingEducation At that point they are failing because they haven’t mastered the material. Is failing with a zero any different than failing with a 50? And again, why are we worried about the number? I’m concerned with whether there was learning.

@NoStressTech @FixingEducation So if a student never turns anything in, what grade should they get? How about if they are absent during summative evaluations or refuses to do the work during the evaluation, what grade do they get?

Actual Conversation… TEACHER: So, if the student didn’t attempt the assignment at all, I have to give them a 50% because a ZERO is too difficult to get out of? ADMIN: Yes TEACHER: Okay, what if a student did try, but earned a 50%. What grade should they get? ADMIN: 50% 🤡🙄

@NoStressTech @SpesMagnaMark @FixingEducation The last year I was in the classroom I moved to a 0-4 mastery scale. 0 was no work, 1 was an attempt with little to no understanding of the standard. 2 was partial understanding, 3 was mastery w/ assistance, and 4 was mastery w/o assistance. The Ss loved it and showed progress.

@FixingEducation It honestly sounds like you are more concerned with punishing non-compliance than you are with trying to get both students to mastery. The system is failing both students. The real question is why aren’t they learning and how can we move them to mastery?

@AngelaB78637706 @MoGreenforNC When I was in the classroom, I went to a party with a bunch of private school teachers. We were talking shop and they complained about class sizes. I had them go around the room and give numbers. The highest class size was 22. I had 34. You’re making a false comparison.

@MoGreenforNC Dear Lord y’all need to get with 2024! Antiquated education system way behind! Private schools are teaching macro and micro economics and public schools can’t even meet 3rd grade reading requirements 🤦‍♀️

Teaching is a noble profession, but our state has woefully underpaid and consistently disrespected educators. #mogreenfornc #ncpol

@eduleadership I mean, sure. We can also say that all students should report to school knowing how to read and riding on a unicorn. The reality is that you do have to earn student's respect, often by simply acting respectfully.

@wilfhh29 @nckhui Isn't it interesting how people only look at one variable when making proclamations about what "works" and "doesn't work" in education?

@nckhui yoohoo! There was a freaky pandemic in there!! It is ridiculous to compare anything to pre-pandemic times when it comes to education. It takes time to recover.

Becky Lew-Hobbs of Moms for Liberty tells the Wake County school board that spending more money doesn’t equate to a quality education. She points to how academic performance has dropped since 2017 even as commissioners increased funding by 50%. #wcpss
