School closures. Classes on zoom. Virtual graduations, and more. COVID-19 has completely upended the way learning+schools work all over the world. How has the pandemic impacted your education? Join the #IDEOReimagineLearning Challenge and share your ideas: ideo.in/2Sz1UcU
Good advice from @angeladuckw about "What Teachers Should Worry About Right Now." As a newly minted homeschool teacher, I'm going to keep this front of mind. blogs.edweek.org/edweek/ask_…

Hey @SaturnLunacy! I think one of your lovely, newly discovered moons should be called "Sindrie" from Norse legacy, possibly meaning "sparkling" or also an alternate name for a dwarf. Perfect for a tiny, sparkly Saturnian moon! #NameSaturnsMoons @sarahkaplan48
This should be required reading for all of us working in education. Nick Hanauer argues that fixing our education system can’t compensate for the ways our economic system is failing Americans. Education Isn't Enough. theatlantic.com/magazine/arc…
🙌 Kudos to Kent Johnson and @Highlights for standing up for our children, especially our most vulnerable ones.
At Highlights, our core belief is that children are the world's most important people. In light of the reports of the living conditions of detained children & threats of further deportation & family separation, here is a statement from our CEO Kent Johnson. #KeepFamiliesTogether

Assessment attitudes/techniques are where the 'rubber meets the road' for growth mindset practitioners. We need reform here and @Youcubed is paving the way forward. Bravo!
We also released an article on the importance of embracing a growth mindset approach and an alternative to traditional grading practices. Teachers shared their stories of addressing performance cultures and removing grades using the A4L approach! 👉🏼 bhi61nm2cr3mkdgk1dtaov18-wpe…

I feel like people are not making a big enough deal about Florida restoring voting rights to formerly incarcerated people. There are about 1.5M people (20% of FL’s Af-Am adult population)who stand to benefit from this. In 2016, Trump won Florida by just over 100,000 votes.
