Twitter Check in #7 @OFall2020 The article places much of the onus of creating socially just environments on the institutions (Teachers, administration, and staff). However the article could go further in addressing outside conflicts with SJ of which schools have little control.

Twitter Check in #6 @OFall2020 Establishing values that contradict structure creates confusion. Step-back and look at an organization as a whole and match structure and practice to values. I also hoped nobody used this image yet.

Twitter Check in #5 @OFall2020 Each layer of the model is heavily reliant on feedback and data collection to develop and modify decisions and policy. However, this much feedback requires strong communication mechanisms so it isn’t a giant game of telephone.

Twitter Check in #4 @OFall2020 My supervisor practices Transformational leadership. Out of the 5 characteristics, he uses intellectual stimulation the most. This makes sense in my position as a researcher. I am pushed to learn more analytical methods and to explore data.

@OFall2020 @OFall2020 The authors used B and D’s 4 frames along with Huntington’s Political institutionalization to develop 6 strategies for OT. The 5th one, Building the Presidential Platform is a clear use of the symbolic frame. It raises a president as a figure of integrity on campus.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Love it. And love her remarks on the crucial role of childcare in economic life and the interwoven threads of our economy.

Thank you, @ewarren!

Donald Trump is not responsible for COVID-19 — but he does bear full responsibility for the failed national response.

We've got to hold him accountable this November.
