Seven years later, change "Wikipedia" to "AI" and it still applies.

Interesting - what is our responsibility as teachers: to protect kids from potential misinformation, or to teach them to protect themselves?

@NCWeatherhound @NWSGSP Here's what was said 10 hours before landfall:
x.com/NWSGSP/status/…
But what does that mean? What should people do with that? "Okay, I've got my laptop, TV, phone, and radio. I'm good." The alerts said "be prepared," but no one said how. Perhaps no one knew.
NWS GSP@NWSGSP
We plead with everyone that you take every single weather warning very seriously through the entirety of this event as impacts will be life-threatening and make sure to have multiple ways to receive the alerts.
English
This collection of bulletins from @NWSGSP indicates the danger was well known in advance.

Progression of messaging from local forecast office, NWS GSP: 1/n "several inches of rain not out of the question" - 8 hours after the pre-#Helene disturbance designated a Potential Tropical Cyclone; 76 hours before landfall
English
@NCWeatherhound The World Equestrian Center was used as a major staging area for utility workers, but it was also almost entirely cut off by the storm.
Forecasters can warn, and people can prepare, and yet still be overwhelmed.
English
@NCWeatherhound What preparations could individuals make? This is not a hurricane-prone area. There are no established evacuation routes, and I haven't heard that there were evacuation orders. The destruction was so far beyond anything previous, even the most serious warnings understated it.
English
I have a question for my upstate folks about #Helene -- assuming any of y'all have power and Internet back.
I understand why people in an area so rarely hit by tropical storm conditions would be unprepared. Newcomers to the coast inevitably have a baptism of fire -- or water. 1/x

@NWSWilmingtonNC @NCWeatherhound What's the strongest wind gust recorded in Asheville? Could this Helene set that record?
English
Did you know the Carolinas have dealt with a Hurricane #Helene before? Sixty-six years ago another storm named Helene just missed Cape Fear on Sept 28, 1958. The strongest wind gust ever recorded in Wilmington, 135 mph, occurred during that storm weather.gov/ilm/HurricaneH… #ncwx

@Mr_Smiths_Class @beatmastermatt That IS freaking awesome, though!
Also, ask me sometime what Project 2025 has to do with Admiral Zheng He.
English
If you would have told me a few yrs ago that I would be cohosting a podcast series about project 2025 with one of my history heroes @beatmastermatt I probably would’ve said “what’s project 2025? And that’s freakin awesome”

@cfhistorynerd @WestoverHS @Mr_Smiths_Class @kristle_rouse @DrVernonLowery @CumberlandCoAIG Mr. Smith is one of the best Social Studies teachers CCS has had. And I've known a few.
English
I had the privilege of visiting the classrooms of two premier professionals at @WestoverHS , Ms. Bondé’s Honors Bio class & @Mr_Smiths_Class AP Human Geography class. Our advanced learners were enthusiastically engaged as Mr. Smith & Ms. Bondé brought the rigor!

@nckhui Huh. Could this be related to local pay incentives? Any sense whether this is statewide, or limited to Wake?
English
Good news for Wake County students: Teacher vacancies are down heading into new school year. Wake heads into 1st day of traditional-calendar schools with 98% of teacher positions filled. It has 235 vacancies out of 11,703 positions. #wcpss #nced newsobserver.com/news/local/edu…

The only downside -- and I'm not complaining! -- to a soaker like yesterday is split tomatoes. Look like I'll be cooking up some sauce this weekend.

@tomhatch4unc There's a Mark Robinson sign in front of the Reid Ross parking lot. SMH.

Mark Robinson is NOT what’s best for Public Education. That is all. You may return to your scrolling.
Justin Parmenter@JustinParmenter
North Carolina’s Mark Robinson is an extremist MAGA candidate who wants to turn N.C. into the next Florida if elected. Here he tells an audience that public school employees are “wicked people” and to never send their kids to public schools. #nced #ncpol

@ncstudents1st @nckhui "Some private schools are raising tuition" would suggest that NC is funding private school operators, not students.
English
English
A ‘history changing’ moment in NC education as universal private school vouchers arrive. There could be a 60% increase in Opportunity Scholarship recipients this year under the new rules. Some private schools are raising tuition rates. #nced #ncpol newsobserver.com/news/local/edu…

I’m incredibly honored and humbled by this recognition! To God be the glory for all he has done in me and through me!!

You will be crying...no need to watch any Hallmark Channel movies this season. This one 5 minute "commercial" does it all💙.

Must-see holiday commercial from Chevrolet. This will be the best five minutes you spend today. Warning: Be prepared to cry.

@TechySewell @stephenoonoo Yeah, depending on how you count, I either got out 10 years ago (into a coaching role) or one year ago (into ed tech)
English
@TechySewell @stephenoonoo The problem, of course, is that teaching as a profession has become some poisoned that *everyone* is getting out, and there aren't the roles to support the number of people who want out. And I weep for the students we have left behind.

Best professional development day ever! We gained so many great ideas and strategies to build on that’ll improve our overall impact on student learning as we work as a team. Thankful to be a part of the AIG pit crew! #AIGallday
