@guidingon Hello there. I've been using your Utopia/Dystopia for years (love it!) but the youtube video for it seems to be private now. I remember most of it but I have a question about one of the locks. Could you DM me? (don't want my students to know the combo). Thanks!

[Mr. Michael Novick @mrmichaelnovick]

Off to a great start!

@JorCru NYC middle school teacher here: most 12 year olds have seen it. It’s become a movie you show to kids the day before winter vacation.

Turning daily indicator reports into a daily spectacle is so irresponsible, especially during a crisis plaguing both public health and trust. A reminder that thousands of families are still waiting to know when their child will receive a remote device and reliable internet.

Yes. https://t.co/V30uEtVwzn

@Incorporated404 Forgot to respond to this. Your CS account is safe for now. My hope is that we’ll be able to move everything in your CS account into your high school account at some point. I’ll keep you updated.

I spent my entire weekend creating a lesson. There’s a remote version, an in-person version, a synchronous version, and a asynchronous version. I’m doing three times the amount of work that I would normally do and I don’t feel particularly confident in any of the versions.

@UFT This... isn’t a thing. School started two weeks ago. What are you talking about? Should I contact my virtual content specialist?

[Mr. Michael Novick @mrmichaelnovick]

I’d love to meet the virtual content specialist I’ll be working with who can help with this workload. And also the other teacher that will be teaching it remotely. Oh wait, neither of those things exist.

I told my kids they would get a real education this fall - it just wouldn’t be the usual school curriculum. Instead they are being taught a powerful lesson about the critical importance of voting & having strong, capable, hard-working leaders at City Hall.

@codenimm What virus? 😬

The NYC DOE bureaucrats sure love to thank and kick questions to each other. https://t.co/pQ4jXZ0E7z @MOREcaucusUFT

@digitalhen This just set me off on another level!

[Mr. Michael Novick @mrmichaelnovick]

As someone who has taught media literacy to students K - 8, I can't NOT say something about this. I used to teach propaganda to 5th graders. We looked at Propaganda for Japanese-American internment. We looked at Leni Riefenstahl's nazi propaganda. (1/19)

.@NYCSchools are reopening safely, so our students can get a better education and our parents don't have to juggle work and childcare every day. #ReturnToSchool2020

[Mr. Michael Novick @mrmichaelnovick]

@stephschmier Aww, this just made me emotional. And yep, 7th grade first unit is Intro to Media Literacy! And your daughter is already ahead of the curve with this.

[Mr. Michael Novick @mrmichaelnovick]

@labmouse That is SUCH a good point that I hadn’t even considered.
