A powerful and plainly persuasive dissent from Justice Ginsberg: “Either [voters] will have to brave the polls, endangering their own and others’ safety. Or they will lose their right to vote, through no fault of their own.”

A reasonable question: If various restrictive, punitive, or costly policies can easily be suspended during a crisis without any ill effects, did they really need to be there in the first place? Rx: When this is over, let's not return to business as usual: is.gd/p841wO

The impacts of extreme weather are being felt right across the country today, soaring temperatures, bushfires, smoke haze, and warning upon warning upon warning.
It does nothing to ease a growing fear that we might not be able to fix this.

An extremely well written article by @Jane_N_Mueller “NAPLAN changes the way we raise our children, and not for the better”. The concluding paragraph is succinct, accurate and a real challenge to our education policy makers. Are they up to it? smh.com.au/national/naplan-c…

When developing ‘impact thinking’ consider how much ‘shiny thinking’, ‘prepackaged thinking’ and ‘template thinking’. They have their place, but we need to know the ‘why’ of what we are doing. Also be aware of the ‘unintended consequences’ #uLead2019

A day of flipping writing instruction on its head. Think Scribo is going to allow us to get to the real learning sooner. #scribo @literatuEdu @naomiloa @MscottMichelle
