RE: Dillon Brooks, “Those are the antics you love or hate as a neutral observer. Most observers in attendance were not neutral, so they loved it.”

*Can confirm this flip in perspective works through the TV as well.

Kids who use social media score lower on reading and memory tests, a study shows Data from a large, ongoing study of adolescents shows a link between increasing social media use and lower cognition and memory in teens.

New study in JAMA:

“Preteens using increasing amounts of social media perform poorer in reading, vocabulary and memory tests in early adolescence compared with those who use no or little social media.”

“It's problematic… even in small doses."

I am recruiting for doctoral students at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Particularly those focused on the intersections between math ed and disability studies here, but also either field. Classes for the first three years are in person. My email: rlambert@ucsb.edu #ITeachMath #EduSky

The authors three main questions when determining what should stay and what should go is an amazing tool for middle leaders.

What I wonder is how often are middle leaders are encouraged from above to lead such decision making. Sounds like the next article…

Small-Group Reading Instruction Is Not as Effective as You Think (Opinion) We’re missing out on a golden opportunity—one that could effectively triple literacy instruction overnight.

HEP author Timothy Shanahan co-wrote an op-ed for @edweek.org, which argues that we should transform how we teach literacy. Read this article here:

DOJ WHISTLEBLOWER: “I wouldn’t be abiding by my oath if I stayed silent right now.” 🇺🇸

He says Trump’s DOJ wanted him to lie (about Kilmar being a gang member & terrorist, etc…) — and fired him when he wouldn’t.

Key quote from the great Lewis Mumford in 1955 — “Adding car lanes to deal with traffic congestion is like loosening your belt to cure obesity.”

It's a goal of mine to help make this the most famous, well-known and UNDERSTOOD quote about cities in history. Please share it as much as you can.

Erika works 8 hours a day harvesting raspberries on CAs Central Coast. She shares, "I must be very careful to only harvest the ripe fruit. This careful selection means that only the best quality berries are packed and shipped to the supermarkets for you to eat." #WeFeedYou

Generally, I’m against homework and can spend a minute talking about why. But, when it’s going to happen, let’s consider not grading it.

”Practice > scrimmage > game” is very helpful to me 👇🏽

”Practice > scrimmage > game” is an excellent analogy from this article. It will go into use in my work!

“Teacher-led instruction is passive” is the reason why I picked this up.

Amazing! I just got a copy. Nice to see this pop up with a recommendation.

I love the celebration!

Does ´retrieval practice ´ have to be done at the start of a lesson. I find it naturally finds a place at all kinds of points in a maths lesson?

Oh man! Okay. I hope you enjoy a taco or something in that case :-)

Dutch Bro’s coffee because waiting in my car in some hot parking lot all that time just doesn’t sound like a good experience for flavored coffee.

What? Bro. Please get a California Roll asap.

Reducing mistakes and penalties must be part of the goal, win or lose. Without Murray, that’s going to be harder to get that moral victory.

They are literally all over the AZ map! New ones still popping up 💪
