In the last few years we've seen:
- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk
Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.
The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.
Had the pleasure of visiting the @LCPSOfficial Admin Building today to work with Ts from the gifted department on the benefits of integrating computer science tools into their lesson designs. Lots of great ideas came up while they practiced coding with the @iRobotEducation Root.
ChatGPT in the classroom: This past fall, it was very clear to me that my undergraduates were going to use generative AI with or without my permission. Therefore, I focused my energy on discussing ethical uses that enhance rather than replace their own thinking/learning.
@teachergrind Still in education, but left the classroom. Workload is still heavy, but the flexibility and ability to plan your own schedule makes all the difference! Love the new challenge my new role brings. No more Sunday Scaries for me!
