A3 I am trying to adapt by re-teaching my students how to have discussions where they listen, empathize and understand multiple perspectives. That skill has been lost-- all good things flow from that skill. #sschat
@offgridteacher This book exposes what many teachers and parents know intuitively, and that is that obsessive phone and social media use without face-to-face communication harms our brains. We have to make more space in classrooms for authentic conversations and human connection.
@classroomtools Bill! I read the article. This is really cool. Though I think they are looking for content, where I think what's needed is the skill of philosophical thinking. It's great that people are getting involved like this. Hope you are well

@classroomtools@NewYorker Great article Bill. Thank you for sharing.
There is, she claims, “no other discipline that teaches you how to think better when it relates to your life.”
I couldn’t agree more.

It's important that students are taught and encouraged to engage in conversations with others who they may disagree with. EdTechTeacher's @ShawnMcCusker provide's a helpful model to teach and encourage students to engage in dialogue, rather than debate.
