This is an inversion of tenure. Not protection to teach what your field says is important but instead an incentive from the state to teach what the state wants
The way tech companies constantly do stuff that nobody asked for really tells you a lot about their bigger ideology. They tell themselves that you will like it over time. What they mean is youβll learn to endure it, or youβll give up. quality of UI is not actually anywhere on their radar

09.12.2025 16:40 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The basic assumption in the paper is that students learned they could now negotiate for better pay as teacher because of Act 10 and so decided to enroll in education majors.
Alternative: Students saw the protests around Act 10 and decided that education careers were important?
I was grabbed by the claim here that Act 10 improved the quality of teachers so looked up the cite (attached). It is a Diff-in-Diff that shows that a few years after Act 10 the number of teaching degrees awarded in WI schools increased. This seems like a wild way to measure "quality of teaching"
