Today on Remembrance Day, we honour the sacrifice and service of so many, and we reflect on the immense human cost of war. As teachers, you play a critical role in building a more peaceful world, from teaching about history to inspiring kids to strive for peace. #LestWeForget #BCed

A Vancouver school board trustee is disappointed after her motion to improve transparency was amended to allow private board meetings at the school board’s discretion and to delete public recordings of meetings after one year.

Got a call from a parent today.

Her teen with dyslexia is expected to “fill in the blanks” on notes meant as accommodations.

For students with processing challenges, that’s not access — that’s another barrier.

"Nearly six years after the arrival of the #COVID pandemic, the virus continues to undermine public health, rattle politics and unsettle the economy" @yaneerbaryam.bsky.social "is deeply worried about new evidence on how children are affected by long COVID." #bcpoli #bced
I appreciate Andrew Nikiforuk at @TheTyee for highlighting the continuing science of COVID and the importance of prevention.
The virus keeps reshaping health and society — we can still choose to act wisely.

while the language was reverted, @bctf.bsky.social still has the government trying to change it.
And #bced system still hasn't recovered from that damage.

BC's Government also has a history of unconstitutionally stripping contracts and forcing [teachers] back to work.

It took the BCTF, with the financial aid of other teachers and labour unions, over a decade to have it go to the supreme court

From insufficient funding to systemic racism to the decline of math and reading scores to “behavioural issues,” there are regions that do better than B.C. — and other jurisdictions that look to the province as a guiding light.

When in the #EdTech field— especially around #AIEd —it is important to have some familiarity with what is happening not only in your own —or nearby—jurisdiction—as well as your national landscape—but leaders should also be intentionally scanning the broader international landscape. #EduSky #BCEd

Another note from a grateful Stats 12 student. This course should be offered at every secondary school! (I also taught this student in PreCalc math 12 too, but that one doesn’t garner notes like this generally) #bced
