School policy mandates one to two homework assignments per week? Depending on year?
Lucky you having curriculum! Lol. My wife has 3 separate classes (Middle and High School) (two of them twice), that she has to build her own curriculum, assignments, and assessments for. Her HS Chemistry is a bear!

My wife doesn't assign homework. Homework is just what the students didn't finish in class (and there is ample time to finish in class). MS/HS

SFC with NO deployments? Even for the Reserve that's unusual (to me).

I tried Threads early on. I find the vibe here to be better. But that's just me.

Give it the ol' "TOTO" (Turn off. Turn on.) And see if that helps. (For the whole phone, not just the app.)

I'm all for killing HAMAS equipment and people. I don't think Israel needs to loosen its collateral damage restrictions to do so.

Of course targeting is specific, but, if you intentionally use too much bomb for the target you are, essentially, intentionally increasing collateral damage and death.

Doesn't "significantly reduced their risk tolerance for collateral damage" just mean, "they have increased their willingness to ALSO destroy nearby buildings and kill civilians near specific targets." ?

Interstellar gets a pass from me. When you have Kip Thorne consulting, it's probably me that's wrong.

Exactly. And that's a fine line. I think it will be a new challenge for teachers, but not something that is insurmountable. And in the long run, I think it will actually make for BETTER production coming from students (and future adults).

AI is not a silver bullet for any writing. It's ok..it may even be good. But it's usually not hard to tell it's AI.

Education. I have a Masters in something else, but my wife has a Masters in Education and I picked up a lot during her classes, and I sub at the school, and so I sometimes feel I can make coherent arguments, but, when experienced educators start talking, I know when to shoosh.

We had a "Caturday" last Saturday which involves 95% laying around in the sun, napping, and occasional food, drink, and bathroom breaks. I recommend everyone channel their inner feline once a month or so.

Well, it's HW dependent. But, generally, I think an average number is probably 150-180.
