Everyone makes mistakes— the important part is to learn from them.

#ImplicitBias, the unconscious, often unintentional prejudice, is embedded within all #AI systems. We have to keep teaching students to critically examine sources and to do the hard work of examining and evaluating conclusions.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The apparent objectivity of the responses these systems provide can lead us to overlook the fact that they reflect the cultural assumptions of those who designed and trained them.

One market, one community—still stronger together after four incredible decades. #EUFlag #StrongerTogether #EU

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

40 years since the EU flag was raised in front of our headquarters in Brussels for the very first time.

Twelve stars.
A single market.

Four decades of standing together for unity, solidarity, and diversity.

The symbol that fosters Europeans’ sense of community. 🇪🇺

Don’t just thank a teacher.
A ‘Thank you’ doesn’t pay the bills.
Instead…increase their salary.
Maybe then, they’ll stay. 😏

Poor working conditions are driving educators out of the classroom in Eden Prairie and beyond. “If teachers don’t feel supported, safe or respected, they are willing to take a pay cut to go elsewhere for a better environment." 💯 💯 💯 #mnleg #edmnvotes

Demanding public taxes only be used for public schools is not an attack on private school teachers. It is a call to #investineducation with full #educationfunding
#schoolvouchers are not the the way to #reformschools

[The Modest Teacher @ModestTeacher]

I have no problem with private schools, parochial schools, charter schools, or homeschool.

There are great, hardworking teachers there.

I just think public tax dollars should support public schools.

Full stop.

Why I will never support vouchers:

1. They solve zero problems.
2. They undermine public schooling, and
3. Absent a vibrant public educational system our democracy is in trouble.

But then, I think that’s the point. Please play the long game on this—it’s important.
