@JPhillipsVT @lifelegeros The Rowland Foundation should support a teacher who wants to help students engage in dialogue to participate in democracy. Oh, they do. It’s me. *gulp*

Teachers and professionals: what are the best resources for teaching high school kids about computer science (bonus points if it can be used by a history teacher) #computerscience #coding #STEM #STEMeducation

@godsbandman @BeckyPringle "Do"? Pretty sure it's always been a verb.

[Christopher Sheehan @SheehanInVT]

@BeckyPringle Vermont - my first in person RA!

Tech and social studies. When to use it? When not to? Can I get more students engaged by leveraging technology? Hopefully we'll find out this summer! #aunetechtools

@johncusack I wrote a paper in college arguing that this was the best movie ever. I think I got a B.

@ChristieNold Love this, Christie. I don't suppose you'd be willing to share the google slides file?

[Christopher Sheehan @SheehanInVT]

Yet again, @jkottke is in my head. I'm preparing to teach a lesson on Plato's Allegory of the Cave, and he posts a brand new take on it narrated by Jon Hamm. Sometimes I think I should list Jason as a co-teacher on my syllabus.

Are you demoralized by the abrupt end of two key school safety measures? Here's how to let #vted secretary know your thoughts. #vtpoli https://t.co/KMJ7Feaa9V

[Vermont NEA @vermontnea]

Last night's abrupt end to contact tracing and surveillance testing in favor of guidance to be named later 'devastating blow' to #VT educators, students. What a reward for enduring a chaotic week. #vted #vtpoli https://t.co/a5Ea1iJaMC

@selene_colburn We (school staff) need access to antigen tests at the schools where we work when we need them, regardless of our vaccination status. Let us decide when we need to test.

As a teacher, the only thing I want to do less than go back in person next week is go online next week. I don't know what the answer is.

[Christopher Sheehan @SheehanInVT]

@LeoQuinn Nope. We are transplants to vt.

[Christopher Sheehan @SheehanInVT]

Right. TikTok is absolutely full of creative/joyful/educational content. When I see teachers calling for a ban of TikTok when it is such a great medium for our students to express themselves it makes me sad. The problem is much bigger than an app.

@edburmila @niralshah My Law School volleyball team was the "Learned Hands". We were not popular.

[Christopher Sheehan @SheehanInVT]

@stumpteacher Thanks for saying this! I have been feeling the same way. I also don't want to speak up about it too much and give administrators the impression that everything is great when so many of my colleagues are...not feeling great.
