Most #LGBTQ #educators in #Colorado feel unsafe to #comeout at #school as #national #debates #threaten #gay and #trans #rights.
#Republican #antitrans #laws rock educators in other #states; as #discrimination and #homophobia affect teachers in the state, some hide, others refuse to.

#NewHampshire #House #Rejects #RepublicanParty's #Controversial '#ParentalBillofRights'.
Two #Republicans crossed #partylines to help #defeat the #bill, which would have required #educators to inform inquiring #parents whether their children are using a different #genderidentity or #name at #school.

A new #school policy in Hanover Township, #newjersey, has drawn fire (and a suit from the Attorney General) for forcing #educators to out #lgbtq #students to their parents without their consent. I had many questions, and ChatGPT had answers! #education #schools @edutooters @edutooter
Even if You don't have in-depth expertise in the #AI field, You can build Your own #app. I created a user-friendly tool for #educators with Brancher.ai (I'm not affiliated). 📚✨
The secret is talking to #ChatGPT to capture the essence of human language & optimize it for pre-tailored #prompts. The resulting text is mostly similar to what one would write for a human, but with a few interesting quirks. Go check it out:

@amydiehl Similar situation with #education & #PublicSchoolBoards who make key decisions about education, including approval of which textbooks are used - or not used. These people are not #educators, they have no training or degrees in education. They’re plumbers, accountants, bus drivers, dentists or mechanics; elected community members making critical decisions abt your children's education. How’s this brilliant idea working for us?

Public #education is plagued by the use of passive voice. When passive voice is used by #school administrators and #teachers, it is conveyed that children are being worked upon by a nameless and faceless system. #Educators' mission and mandate to change the future and solve the future's problems are also being abrogated by the use of passive voice. Passive voice should be avoided, and being passive in our approach to education should not be encouraged. @edutooters @edutooter

"This course takes you through an introduction to the #brain and the impact the brain has on learning. New brain research comes out regularly. You will gain strategies to apply what you have learned to your own teaching practices."
The average weekly wages of college graduates in the US rose $445, from $1,564 to $2,009 between 1996 and 2021, adjusted for inflation.
The average for public school teachers started out lower, and increased by just $29 over those 25 years, to $1,348.
That’s $29 in real wage growth over 25 years.
Here’s what an education policy expert says about the prospects for changing that

Just some of the many things experts told us:
• Give adults with the lowest #literacy skills more attention
• Increase availability & flexibility of classes, especially in rural areas
• Train #educators how to work with adults with #disabilities
• Invest more $$ in #AdultEducation
• Increase #teacher pay & add more full-time teachers

This December, #Christian #churches will sing songs and priests will talk about the #Bible. As they do so, a group of Jewish, Christian and Muslim #educators is calling on them to examine where antisemitic ideas might be lurking undetected - ‘To say that the meaning of sacred Scriptures are over for Jews, because Jesus has come, fuels a sense that there is no longer a reason for Jews to exist,’ said one scholar.

Hi everyone! A brief #introduction from our #NonProfit #WorkerCoop of #PublicSchool #educators:
We created Get It Right in the fall of 2020, to staff a new secondary school that needed a democratic collective to run it (check out milestonedemocratic.org). We are in our third school year, showing up every day to demonstrate that #TeacherPowered schools, where educators make decisions by consensus and share governance with students and families, can create equity and justice.
Let's connect!
