@AidaAlibek I hear you.

This really says it all.

This!!
When instructors in my dissertation study listened to understand student thinking (as opposed to listening to correct, as so often happens in classrooms) students felt seen and that their mathematical work was valued.

[McKinney de Royston @profm_de_r]

Listening is one of the most powerful teaching and learning tools an educator has. To be heard and felt is humanizing, liberating even. More listening by educators would radically alter so many learning interactions and spaces.

Had the pleasure of listening to 5th graders share their understanding of eighths yesterday. We started off the discourse by listening to each other about what they already know about fractions/eighths, & they continued to blow me away as they taught each other! #choralcounting

@kathyschultz22 Read, yes, and also listen and watch. Her words, spoken in her voice and delivered with her own presentation are so powerful.

Let’s think about the impact of math homework on kids. Also the practice of publicly holding kids up for “doing such a good job” and telling others they “need to work harder.” Thank you ⁦@JessicaCalarco⁩ ⁦@ilana_horn⁩ ⁦⁦@graceachen⁩ ⁦ https://t.co/c072obnjHM

How on earth does @ATT think this ad is acceptable?

[Dr. Ashley Pitlyk @ProofOmitted]

I'm disappointed in you @ATT. This is not the way to support closing the gender gap in STEM nor just supporting STEM in general.

Read this paper. I know I am. Then send it to every elementary school principal, teacher and parent you know.
