Thread:
Was asked to put together "easy to read" charts and tables of AHS's covid ICU data in Alberta over the last 120 days. Thought I'd share it here

First up ICU by vaccination status and condition/co-morbidity status
Its vaccine status driving ICU, not co-morbidities (1/6)

@jkenney says the new curriculum offers a balanced perspective on the introduction to religion for K-6. My answer as a historian of religion is: no, no it doesn’t. And, I’ll tell you why. 🧵

Ok twitter, I have never asked for anything until now. Please retweet

@AdrianaLaGrange please do the right thing and cancel all standardized tests this year. They are not appropriate for so many reasons and are contributing to poor mental health of our students. #abed #ableg

@PParseyan Measured how exactly? Are scores on standardized tests going to be the way we measure the worth of a school or district? If funding is tied to "results", then raising those scores become the goal instead of improving the quality of schools. They ARE NOT the same thing.

Thank you Gerda de Vries - as thought-provoking for an elem teacher as for secondary #ATAGeeksUnite

Math profs spend most of their energy worrying about how to support their struggling students. Sound familiar? #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

...plus, being able to identify a right answer is NOT the same as being able to produce one #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

Multiple choice tests - impossible to distinguish between those who made a small error and those who have no idea... #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

"Demonstrate understanding of..." - when we try to articulate an outcome like this, even in detail, something is lost #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

When students are able to sketch a problem it can often give them a starting point for solving it - seem to struggle w/that #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

Practice of math as a language: well-organized writing in math leads to clear thought #ATAGeeksUnite

[Pat Lore @PLore957]

...focus on problem solving, introduction to the concept of proof, introduction to logic #ATAGeeksUnite

"Practice of mathematics as a tool for reasoning (not a collection of formulae to be memorized)" #ATAGeeksUnite
