How to incorporate #STEM career possibilities into the classroom "as jobs in STEM fields are expected to grow twice as fast as those in non-STEM fields, and millions of STEM jobs are expected to go unfilled in the near future"

The cost of high-speed internet can make it hard for students to equally participate in school. That’s unacceptable.

The good news: nearly 40% of households qualify for help!

Thanks to @dustinhornbeck for this history of the U.S. education & teacher preparation system, John Dewey & the progressive education movement that is the foundation for K12 systems today, school reform, as well as unfounded, ideologically-charged criticisms. #PublicSchoolsMatter

[Chris Turner @ChrisTurnerEdD]

Election misinformation is why K12 curriculum involving digital citizenship and information literacy is so critical

Math Teachers, post these in your room

-Everyone can learn math at a high level

-When you believe in yourself, your brain thinks differently

-Mistakes grow your brain. Struggle is good 4 U

-It isn’t important to be fast in math, rather to think deeply & creatively
