Proud to announce my membership in @MagicSchoolAIβs Pioneers Program! As a MS T, I love the YouTube Video Questions tool with the YouTube video Summarized tool to create guided notes and quick assessments for my students, completing in 5 minutes what used to take hours!

Traditional grading is lucky it came first. Imagine, in 2023, promoting an approach to grading anchored on the idea that the name of the event determined how much weight it carried in the grade book. Not the cognitive complexity. The title. Read that again. #ATAssessment

Typhoon Mawar is expected to hit the U.S. territory of Guam on Wednesday with the force of a Category 4 hurricane, forecasters warned, as the authorities urged residents to seek shelter in the few hours left before the storm hit.

More than 1.2 million people were told to leave as the storm brought heavy rain to the country.

One of the great things about teaching is that even when you may not think a lesson went well or you had an off day, you still impacted lives! Students don't remember the lessons as much as they remember you cared and wanted the best for them.

A friend of mine just said that Americaβs currently in a group project where half the people did the hard work and prepared while the other half went into the presentation completely unprepared, got everyone a bad grade, and then whined about the grade after. Itβs too accurate.

Studentsβ misvalue of and dependence on grades will not wane quickly. The roots are deep and strong. Yet β we can fail to give grades life when we cut off the punitive and compliance-based metrics that make them so poisonous. Weaken the roots, the reach of grades will rot.
