As a citizen and an educator, I vow to continue to work toward this province and our education system being a welcoming, caring, positive and safe place for all.

Where are all the articles about this? These factors are rising meteorically.
I don't think we need to blame "fad teaching methods" or any other straw people for the decline in results. Material conditions are much worse. #teaching #education

"44% of students in Canada were in schools whose principal reported that the school’s capacity to provide instruction is hindered by a lack of teaching staff (and 24%, by inadequate or poorly qualified teaching staff). In 2018, the proportions were 19% and 7%." #PISA2022 #abed

How bad it can be:

@ThisIsWillAdams @DavoZed @subvoyeur In what way do you think the ideas they have shared should affect their right to peaceful protest?

[Matteo Hee @HeedoesMath]

@JustWardell I'm not convinced that was his intent, and suggest giving benefit of the doubt in a medium bereft of the nuance of human conversation.
Regardless, reasonable conversations about ideas can continue even when one's interlocutor doesn't play fair. (Teachers often practiced at this)

[Matteo Hee @HeedoesMath]

@JustWardell The context of the original comment was a list of school leader actions to help a struggling school.
I am asking to what extent the reminder is a necessary/sufficient school leader action, since you suggested it was missing from the list.

[Matteo Hee @HeedoesMath]

@JustWardell I think teachers feel like it's a cop-out when leaders or others responsible for supporting them instead simply remind them to create relationships.

To what extent do you think such reminders are necessary or sufficient?

[Matteo Hee @HeedoesMath]

@JustWardell Yes. See "grown-up". It is very difficult to tell if you are being genuine.

I, for one, was looking forward to the ideas explored in a reasonable discussion.

@CommonS67191926 @RachelNotley Healthy and educated people pay the way.
I wonder how they get that way?

@AngelaDearing thanks for your fascinating session "Engaging the TikTok Generation" at #NCTCA2023.

As we examine our classroom practice to reflect on what students engage with, how do we reconcile it with the Learning/Liking dichotomy a'la @emollick?

@PaulKaneHS Exciting to see Computer Science in your guidebook.

[Matteo Hee @HeedoesMath]

@hopkinsjeff Precisely. It feels like the "For you" feed is engineered to create engagement in a very negative way.
Meanwhile, the "Following" feed (which I have to remember to click back to each time) has been actively made worse. Eg: replies with no context is jarring and terrible UX.
