Just after Christmas (this was still online Dec. 28) students and teachers were considered ‘high risk’ for getting PCR tests. Now that they’re back to school and PCR has been limited to ‘high risk’ groups, they aren’t any more. I so wish reporters would ask about these things.

@mcleod @MrSchlangen @mctownsley @tguskey @TomSchimmer @john_hattie @SusanBrookhart @realhomeworkldy @kenoc7 @DouglasReeves @rickwormeli2 Retention is not an intervention. See Hattie’s list of influences for the effect size from his meta analysis of this influence. Spoiler: it’s -.32. Not only is it not helpful, retention harms students. They don’t need more of what didn’t work, but instead intervention on skills.
