Midterms will fail to make change anywhere that fails to return to paper ballots

I’ve been making this case for a pathway back to reconciliation. This is worded so much better than I’ve been managing.

The economy crash is probably meant to facilitate real estate grabs and forcible privatization. Probably a switch to crypto from the dollar as well

Philly should know. The MOVE firebombing of an entire West Philly block happened 40 years ago this year.
It is, indelibly, my first memory of TV news.

The lack of socks is intentional — to emphasize the harshness of manacle on skin and elicit sympathy.
Smart lawyer. Same goes for the matching clothing at an earlier appearance.

It’s a shame that academia didn’t see the privatization assault on K12 and see that the next target was higher ed.

There is a small south facing window in my little bathroom. I keep aloe plants in there — every once in a while I clip a leaf with nail scissors, split it, and use it on my face. :)

I’m an educator with some rather vocal opinions. Hope that’s ok.

We did. As I see daily the realities on the ground, teaching in a community of color, this was an obvious falsehood to my ears.
And how have they addressed it directly? They just said to not worry about it.

I see a conflict of interest here, in this presentation that ironically discusses ethics. Of course Kapoor would like to see AI implemented regardless of harms “But — here’s a video about how teachers can mitigate the harm done by our product to children’s literal ability to think and communicate.”

And so the AI enablers forget where the learning and development happens, conveniently seeing an artificial product as evidence of learning.
This is no longer the case; and education must realign away from product and back towards process.
Why build a course around implementing a bad thing?
comment in response to
post
I hear and see so little of student cognitive and social development in the presentation. It falls into the trap of much current thinking in Ed policy. Seeing the product, completed work, as the goal and not the process.
Decades ago, work and thinking was nec to complete a product.
No longer.

There is nothing responsible towards communities of color to implement AI replacement of actual thinking and writing opportunities — the presentation hardly seems to go further than compensating for the fact that yt people created AI, and vaguely “mitigating harms.”
Why not simply *not* use AI?

Well said. No negotiating with falsehood.

This is partly why I think it is so important to only question views and actions, while actively affirming a willingness to respect the person — to begin to pry the indoctrination away through connection and conversation.
They’re warned they’ll get hate from the left. Why confirm the programming?

Senator Murphy attended an E4E press conference after a hearing last week as the destruction of the Dept of Ed loomed — Educators for Excellence is *for schools privatization.* He’s not been great.

Haha ok I don’t remember THAT one.

I have long stuck to my belief that the left should attack fascism and active fascists, but also make sure to leave a clearly constructed path and open door for those duped by Fox News and more recently by bots and trolls to return to sanity and dignity.
That’s different, I hope.

I love etymology. I’m a lit teacher. Complete word nerd. It is an interesting discussion — but one tenuous etymological connection and some article does not serve as proof.

If it’s in service of their king and their lockstep media fueled ideology it’s not anarchism.

Cis male but always gender nonconformist — I don’t want to center myself as I’m not on the front lines of this but I expect to be a target.

Mangione’s legal team has entered the courthouse and made a right turn to the crowd of supporters, away from the press gaggle, who burst into cheers. Court officers quickly scolded press for trying to go document and shuffled us back to our respective pens.

I don’t follow how how that list equals working with Naught Zees?
It just looks like an analysis of left-progressive-lib hybrid people.
Can someone explain? I’ve met these people in a union workplace…
Honest question. Maybe I need to read more of the thread?

I’ve seen this change over my 26 years teaching (33 years working with young people) but Common Core itself wasn’t a major part of the cause. It was hardly different from extant state standards.
