I'm dumbfounded every time I see this methane graph
We don't know what the last time was that methane concentrations were this high (1943 ppb @noaa.gov).
Maybe 55 million years ago during the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM)?

Bout time! It’s a friendly platform, but not much interaction.

We create conditions that infantilize learners and inhibit their natural ability to learn. We keep them sedentary and indoors for most of the day, disconnecting them from one another and from the diverse forms of life with which they are entangled. 4/

As a teacher, I sometimes say “motivation is everything” and then wonder if I am exaggerating. I don’t think so. When children really want to learn something, they are phenomenally teachable. When they are deeply focused on learning, behaviour isn’t an issue. And that energy is contagious.
