Topic: Parent engagement can be very helpful in education. What are the ways beyond “Back To School Night” that schools may inform and involve parents? #edchat #edusky

It's especially problematic in my content World Languages because language acquisition doesn't happen in that way at that pace. And it's still too textbook influenced even if no textbook is used. #EdChat #edusky

Jam-packed curricula may "look" rigorous because OMG allthethings, and applying that into a classroom setting is unrealistic because it's all cognitive overload with zero substance. #EdChat #edusky

#EdChat Topic: Is our idea of rigor helping students prepare, or just overwhelming them? How can curriculum design shift from cognitive overload to true mastery? #EduSky

We had this discussion earlier on my campus. New teacher incentive pay will be tied to teachers who do things outside of their contract hours further blurring what is expected of educators in our profession. #edchat #edusky

Tonight's #edchat topic: If districts continue to demand more and more of teachers, what can teachers do to establish boundaries around extra assignments that help them sustain their work? #edusky

#EdChat Topic: How do we prepare students for jobs, skills, and challenges that don’t exist yet? @ShiftParadigm @AggieAshley

I've learned that "just because it's the way it's always been done" does not mean that's the way it has to be done. #edusky #edchat

Topic: Student-friendly grading might include not giving zeroes and making 50 the lowest possible grade. Thoughts? comments? other alternatives? #EdChat #edusky

Is there a survey source? I have so many questions! #EdChat

There are a bunch of different types of tech within education. I'm curious to know how they defined "tech" for this study. #EdChat

Tonight's #EdChat Topic: A recent national survey shows that administrators believe only about 18% of their educators are tech proficient. Your thoughts? #edusky

As DEI becomes taboo in many states, educators are being asked to individualize instruction—without acknowledging the inequities that shape student experience. In short, doing more with less per usual. #edchat #edusky

Tonight's #EdChat Topic: If Equity Dies, Does Individualized Instruction Die With It? #edusky

I know y'all have thoughts. What are yours? #EdChat
Topic: Is hybrid/online learning undermining or enhancing educational quality? #EduSky

#EdChat Topic: Should schools focus more on workforce readiness or traditional academics? #EduSky

So many truths in one single pie chart.

I'm Ashley, a Spanish teacher in Texas at the high school level. #t2tchat

Please tell me there are no tariffs on popcorn because I'm gonna need lots of it to watch the latest episode of Elon vs. Trump.

I am also already generating ideas for how to use it in a continuum throughout the entire year for fluidity and sequencing. #edchat #edusky

I will openly admit in heavily relying on AI to create my PD, but the product is by and large my very own including my own from the actual presentation to the tone and quality of the content within. #edchat #edusky

WELCOME to #EdChat Topic: How comfortable will you be with current models of PD being used in teaching teachers the skills, possibilities and ethics of Artificial Intelligence?

School admin and colleagues should NEVER EVER even so much as insinuate that their staff check their emails during off contract time, yet so many educators do and will because they've been conditioned to give their time away for free. #edchat

Let's follow the money... Graduation rates affect what schools and districts receive from a funding level. There are successful people at all levels of business who never earned a diploma and either earned a GED or nothing at all. #edchat

A HS diploma has long signified that a student had completed a secondary education and met the requirements to earn a diploma. Some people argue that due to recent changes (i.e. job market, ed standards, etc.) a HS diploma has been devalued, what say you? #edchat

I feel like this rides the line along with evolution being espoused as just a "theory" or Columbus being celebrated as the first to discover America. #EdChat #EduSky

New standards for Oklahoma high school students promote misinformation about the 2020 election Beginning next school year, the curriculum standards for Oklahoma high school students will including conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election.

Welcome to #EdChat -- Topic: With Oklahoma changing its curriculum statewide to teach that Trump won the 2020 election that Biden stole, we must ask how we teach while omitting ideology and political propaganda. Here's a link for reference: apnews.com/article/okla...

And dare I say that my own child is graduating? I just can’t. 😭😭😭

It’s the end of the year stuff and saying goodbye to seniors.
