1. It's my birthday today and I only want one thing. I want these two women, Niloofar Hamedi and Elahe Mohammadi, to be famous. Niloofar and Elahe are Iranian reporters who reported on the death of Mahsa Zhina Amini. They are now in prison and could face the death penalty.

Hey Twitter employees getting laid off tomorrow! IMPORTANT INFO from a CA employment attorney (me): CA's "WARN" law requires Twitter to give you 60 days notice of a massive layoff. A layoff of 50+ employees within a 30 day period qualifies. I know you didn't get that notice.

There is no official language in the US, and (lest we forget) as a country of immigrants, we should celebrate our diverse cultures. And many, many other reasons.

I cannot recommend this webinar by @JCHorvath enough. It is about how students learn with their laptops and what we can do. Many of us are in-person, but students are still using their laptops. Worth every minute! youtube.com/watch?v=N3TNeK…
So good news - no mass teacher exodus. Oh, except in underrepresented areas? And Paras and other lower paid staff ARE leaving.
Why there hasn’t been a mass exodus of teachers: 53eig.ht/3CqSrbZ
The lack of a plan in many districts to support students who are out quarantining is revealing. In the rush to get kids back into the one-size-fits-all approach, we've highlighted that meeting kids' needs has never been the primary concern of the school system.
Nice. Captioning has so many benefits, for language learners, for adults with some hearing loss and much more!

Yes!
‘6 weeks pregnant means 2 weeks late for your period’ — Watch @AOC school Gov. Greg Abbott on the problems with Texas' new abortion law
Word fact of the day: ‘wend’ was once a regular alternative to the verb ‘go’. It is fossilised in the phrase ‘wend our way’. ‘Go’ eventually took over, but we still use the past tense of ‘wend’ - ‘went’ - rather than ‘goed’.
I've experienced a few weeks of hybrid workshops/classes/meetings and there are really just 6 things everyone could do to make mixed modality conversations work well. Sharing thoughts here. Spoilers: it's kind of about the tech, but it's a lot more about the behavior. (1/8)
One thing I noticed was a lack of respect for the profession of teaching. We have gone on several years/decades where all problems were lumped into the education system (students don't get enough food, schools can do that; students don't get enough activity, schools can ...)
"The overarching sentiment: Teaching was already too much — and with the increased stresses and demands introduced by the pandemic, they’d simply had enough." The teacher pipeline is at a trickle. Pay teachers more and make it a sustainable profession. washingtonpost.com/magazine/2021/…
This is stating the obvious but I want to make sure it's salient: When trans people leave academia because they don't feel safe or welcome here, they don't get big news features about those decisions.
