@memphisweather1 In 2014, you wrote that Memphis was going to stop alerting the whole county (https://t.co/x4moXx46Wy). Any reason you know why they haven't made this policy change?

We really need to stop trying to carry out every single meeting, task, and activity online. Some things just need to be let go. “Flattening the curve” also involves “lowering the bar” and prioritizing wellbeing above productivity.

Given the significant disruption to scholarly progress caused by our adjustment to #COVID19, all @OhioState tenure track faculty who are in their probationary period will be offered a 1-year extension to their tenure clock. Details to those faculty & their leaders forthcoming.

Academic peeps: I've lived through many disasters. Here is my advice on "productivity". First, play the long game. Your peers who are trying to work as normal right now are going to burn out fast. They're doomed. Make a plan with a longer vision. /1

Proposal for academic events scheduled between 4-7pm: instead of refreshments, provide food for young humans and some childcare.

PSA: Your students at *Elite College* are not smarter, more capable, more intellectually curious, or more deserving of a full liberal arts education than my community college students.

New study by Lindsey Moses & Laura Beth Kelly: Are They Really Reading? A Descriptive Study of First Graders During Independent Reading.

This debunks the nonsense that independent reading during the SCHOOL DAY is irrelevant #G2great @drlindseymoses

@Mister_Ayyye Have you seen "these kids are out of control": why we must reimagine"classroom management" for equity? (2018 book, Milner, et al) Recommend

[Jarred Amato @jarredamato]

When policymakers and ed leaders talk about “priority schools,” wish they’d acknowledge how hard those students, families, and educators are working to overcome a system that is designed for them to fail.

When folks say they want to arm teachers, what they’re saying is they accept that regular shootouts should be part of the routine for schoolchildren. We don’t have to accept that. I won’t accept that.

[Christopher Emdin @chrisemdin]

These idiots are truly considering arming teachers with guns when we haven’t even provided them with the proper teaching supplies #parkland
