@PeelSchools You're telling staff and parents this at the END of the day, when many already figured out how to do this at the BEGINNING of the day.
Does peel's LTSS staff not talk to Communications Dept advising them of other ways of going to the VLE classrooms, etc, besides Peel webpages?
@PeelSchools You can start any google meet directly from your Board G-mail account, if you set up your G-Meet in your google calendar. The bottom left corner of email says "my Meetings", click it and proceed to see "Join Meeting". This is a work around to avoid coming from BYOD.
Sustainable sexism - a thread...
My 10yo daughter needed shoes. In the sporting goods store, she asked, “Mom, why do they only have pictures of girls stretching or posing, but the boys are doing something athletic?” 🤔
Truthfully, I hadn’t noticed. So I looked around. 1/
@buckeybadger93@randomanne @SabugueiroP @dandoozled@CaseySeidemanMD@candacegranberg But let's not underestimate the power of advertising on young impressionable minds. We CAN look out for who is missing in pictures, what the message is, and ask if that's really true or just perpetuating something that is potentially outdated of harmful to others.
@SabugueiroP @dandoozled@buckeybadger93@CaseySeidemanMD@candacegranberg You're contradicting yourself - the standards ARE set by society, but our societal beliefs are born of a combination of many things. Biology is a component, but is not the sole determinant or the broad brush to paint with. Social stereotypes have little to do with biology.
@SabugueiroP @dandoozled@buckeybadger93@CaseySeidemanMD@candacegranberg There's a distinction btwn sex & gender... gender IS socially constructed. Roles & preferences are soc. constructs, highly influenced by culture, envrnmnt, stereotypes, media, the list goes on. Don't underestimate decades of social and psychological conditioning within society.

@SabugueiroP @candacegranberg ...Depicting otherwise and saying studies show this, is rooted bias, just keeping other people down and maintaining a stuck status quo. #realwomen
@SabugueiroP @candacegranberg Untrue, you cannot simply perpetuate more of the same conditioning by studies which exemplify that many have been over-condioned to accept posing pictures. Women want to be inspired by and celebrated for atheletism in a sports store, and other places too....
Principals will tell you that before Reg 274 they'd receive hundreds of emailed resumes from qualified teacher applicants for 1 job. They simply felt forced to go with who they knew, or who a colleague would ask them to look at (often the colleague's close relative). Unfair.
Are you wondering why ETFO supports a fair and transparent hiring, known as Regulation 274? Here is a handy backgrounder from @ccpa to understand why a fair hiring practices supports all https://t.co/5LDXkyvMCq #onpoli#ontedu
My daughter recieved her little bottle of nail polish protector from Amazon, in this box... it was the only item ordered....No other way to package this little item? #amazon#overpackaged
Marriott keeps giving an auto call saying I am "entitled to a complimentary stay..", then after you press 0 they say it is a promotion with prices expiring at the end of the call. When you quote that it's a complimentary stay, they simply hang up. Marketing scam #MarriottTRAVELER
@Marriott@ManUtd@Forbes Marriott keeps giving an auto call saying I am "entitled to a complimentary stay...", then after you press 0 they say it is a promotion with prices expiring at the end of the call. When you quote that it's a complimentary stay, they simply hang up. Bad impression of "Marriott"!!
