Can't reply cause Zillenial blocked me. I was genuinely trying to be helpful. I was around for a solid year of AI. In my class where I did a workshop model I didn't have issues but the college class I administered (received curriculum for) it was rampant.
A “couple” meaning two, or a “few” meaning three or four? A few years ago most likely predates the ubiquity of Ai.

Gone down a rabbit hole on architecture for a writing project. I am blown away by the difference between contemporary academics in English/Writing vs. Architecture/Design. What the hell happened?

The number of people who have called me retarded for not rereading Henry James: 5. The number of people who have given me even three sequential paragraphs from Henry James: 0. A writer who was longlisted for the Man Booker wants to fuck my wife to prove how dumb I am.

He cannot share three sequential paragraphs of Henry James. Which really makes you wonder what kind of efforts people are taking for fucking Henry James.

It's kind of surreal that people who supposedly like books are more likely to aggressively defend rereading Henry James than, you know, reading contemporary literature. Didn't know rereading Henry James was somehow the hill people will die on.
Genuinely, I am so rarely on this site. I thought I was on bluesky. I saw somebody say something hyperbolic and responded. Moments later I realized I was on twitter and, yeah, that makes sense.
Some of the most heartbreaking testimony from Capital Police re: Jan 6th was in explaining why they chose not to use their guns. They viewed the perpetrators as fellow citizens. They would rather die or be injured than escalate the violence.

They viewed their job as being safeguards of congresspeople and their staff, the country itself, and the people who were attacking them.

There are many easily definable skills in relation to reading and writing. The TEKS are pretty solid. If you read them, you'll see they are highly recursive. A 6th grade skill isn't siloed in the 6th grade. It's still in the 12th grade standards with greater complexity.
There must be some mastery elements to geography as well as the maths and sciences, if you take history from a nation building perspective there’s probably at least some dates and key events that need to be mastered, that last point controversial of course. English is trickier

@eduleadership knows this. He's just got a motivating reason to say skills can be one and done from the perspective a a principal who visits a classroom once a year, maybe once a quarter. As such, he's valuing the precision of data over accuracy.

Brave article. The hate this guy is getting is obscene.
I can no longer be an accomplice to the GOP’s descent into authoritarianism. I just turned my back on a 12-year career in the Republican ecosystem, and I urge anyone else who harbors doubts to do the same.

Hey anybody, my feed has become a filth of white supremacists and bots because I responded to conservative education profiteers. If anyone could could drop me a poem, a favorite piece of music, a recipe. I want to get my feed out of this black hole.
