“If you ask me what to do to change the system, I would say put it back to the way it was when we had objective measures like state tests." nypost.com/2024/04/20/us-…
I think the skeleton key to every elite campus controversy is that the classes are too easy and the students aren’t doing enough homework.

Speaking as a teacher, having a quality curriculum to implement means I can leverage my time to give specific feedback, intervene, examine progress, collaborate/reflect… Don’t make us develop our own instruction. There are much wiser uses of our time and talent.

Does anyone know of an internship for high school students that is history related? Anyone need a summer intern? If so, please PM me. I am looking for a student. @DalrympleWill @Historycourses @Beanie0597 @amyrberman @AndrewWatsonTTB @smorrisey @amypento
Why is NY using 1788, not 1624, 1776, or 1789 as the date on their shirts? @APTeacher1754 @Historycourses
1. What difference does the amount of words at once have? Compare slide 1 vs slide 2 and 3 By doing less words, more of them get read. Having lots of info at once means most doesn’t get read, as students scan down not across, and appear to lose interest in the middle
I often say that teachers made me a “curriculum person.” Because I have heard this thousands and thousands of times, in school visits and private chats.

FANTASTIC NEWS! ❤️ Yes, parents could still buy phones for their kids but a law like this would help to move the country culturally. Parents need to understand just how damaging smartphones are for children. theguardian.com/technology/202…
After @DOEChancellor dismantled the Teaching and Learning division, he is rolling out costly commercial curriculums for all grades in 2024-25. Principals informed in a memo this evening.
"In sum, spending hours on customizing curriculum or creating units and lessons from scratch is burdensome, results in lessons of low rigor and quality, & is almost certainly a less valuable use of teacher time...." the74million.org/article/40-yea…
If you just look at the narrow question of smartphones in school as an academic and disciplinary issue it’s pretty clear they’re a huge source of distraction to students and hassles for teachers. slowboring.com/p/smartphones-…

@researchED_US Teaching is Too Hard for Mere Mortals. AMEN. Teachers spend copious amounts of time creating and curating materials, at the expense of other uses of time (ex. Focusing on student work). @rpondiscio cites MDR’s 12 hours/week estimate.
I wish all private and religious schools had to publish SAT scores, AP/IB scores, and family income so I can make a direct comparison as a parent for high school. @smaet @EduConsumersFdn might find these tables fun.
Good, clear, simple explanations are important!
Hi, @ctovani! As promised, here are my quick thoughts on @researchED_US. TL;DR is that I loved it and hope it’s something that can become popular here in the US, as it has overseas. (1/x)
If you’re not at #researchEDG I earnestly feel bad for you. @MrZachG is talking about “the art and science of explaining stuff.
"A venn diagram looks like a butt." - @MrZachG
Don't assume students use: Retrieval practice, Spaced practice, Explain like I'm five Flashcards. Explicitly teach these. Avoid arts and crafts studying. From @ijkelleher
