When we discuss social justice and equity issues we CANNOT ignore that in 2022, women remain underrepresented in physical sciences, computing and engineering jobs #NationalSTEMDay #NationalSTEAMDay #STEMSTEAMMakeDream #STEM

School reform would be radically reconfigured by the simple addition of an "s" & an apostrophe - that is, a shift from talking about "student achievement" (the aggregate results of standardized tests) to "students’ achievements" (the intellectual accomplishments of specific kids)

This, too.

Referring to test-score gaps as "achievement" gaps implies that the tests are valid measures of meaningful proficiencies. But what they mostly measure is skill at taking tests. Lots of examples in "TestThink," a useful 2004 article I'd forgotten about: https://t.co/sk0Djv27OO

And it’s not just arts instruction that suffers in this way. Siloed learning serves no one. Integrate! ⁦@NJPSA⁩ #AILI22 #ArtsIntegration

The more I read these panicked articles about places like NYC and San Francisco being 'unsafe', the more I realize it's not about crime at all - just discomfort with poverty being more visible

[Christopher Emdin @chrisemdin]

How about we arm teachers with books, curriculum, and the agency to teach honest truths about our past and make sense of the sad state of our present. This is the only way we can get to a future where idiots with political power aren’t actually considering giving teachers guns

A country more willing to ban books for fear of progress than to ban weapons for fear of losing profit is a country with no soul.

You're a student and on the first day of class you're handed a list of rules (on which you had no input) and penalties for violating them. Excited about learning yet?

[STEM Teaching Tools @STEMTeachTools]

Resources from @LearnInPlaces project support classrooms, families, and educators to think about these questions through walking, observing, questioning, and wondering in places.
