@lilSpid3rM0nkey @ChrisKindaReads I suggest reading A Brave New World after reading 1984. They make for interesting comparisons.

@JamesAFurey One of my lit teachers said poor writing was poor thinking. Couldn’t agree more.

I am so sorry to read this. I’ve had the pleasure of hearing her present and reading her books. Prayers for her family.

"as Oakley argues, the education system needs to start seeing factual knowledge as “the glue for high-level thinking” rather than simply “rote trivia.” And that shift needs to happen within the K-12 system in order for the situation to change significantly at the college level."

[Natalie Wexler @natwexler]

As a recent paper argues, AI is just the most recent twist in a long-term shift away from getting kids to store knowledge in their brains & use it for thinking.

One result: college students can't read/think the way they used to.

My 38th year in education is now in the books. It was a challenging year but we saw more student growth than ever before! Thank you decodable texts and intensive focus on fluency. Lucky to work with such great teachers and administrators!
