Sometimes teaching is printing out a GQ article about Timothee Chalamet and making up a pretend homework assignment so a lonely middle school student who's frustrated about the tedium of the day after school has something to look forward with you tomorrow.

I miss the days when your Internet persona was decidedly split from your real life. I was very young then but tbh it was helpful to have that split and know that none of it should spill into one's personal life. growing up, it made me more critical and careful with what I consumed or put out there.

Something that people overlook about The Acolyte is the throwaway line where The Stranger basically says that "sith" is a term for anyone who does not follow the teaching of the Jedi. This was hundreds of years before ANH.
This should make subsequent mention of the Sith by the Jedi questionable.

Think suspensions are key to classroom order? Think again. Evidence from Chicago public high schools shows that reducing suspensions through restorative justice doesn’t harm learning—and improves school climate, especially for Black students. By @aadukia.bsky.social .

so struck by @airealejoi.bsky.social's presentation with an amazing team on the ethics of witnessing racial harm as educational researchers! really sitting on the idea of burying as death and burying as life, and methodological opportunities to better understand the work of witnessing with care.

Being a bad teacher isn’t a moral failure. You can be a bad teacher and a good person.
But you shouldn’t stay a bad teacher without trying to get better and/or walking away.

Some thing I'm proud of implementing in our hiring process:
- a short answer application instead of a cover letter
- threading values throughout the hiring process
- performance task for everyone

Trump and Republicans can lie about their plan to cut taxes for the rich, but votes don’t lie.
We asked them: will you rule out tax cuts for those making over $1 billion? Republicans voted no.
So we tried no tax cuts for $1 billion companies like Amazon? No.
That says it all.
