The bills on #Education are being analyzed by the Bucharest Government, in order to establish the final form that will be submitted for #Parliament approval. The debates in Parliament, however, are very likely to get heated. (1/4)

The opposition has criticised the amendments announced by the line minister @ligiadeca, describing the bills as faulty, superficially made and prone to creating imbalances. The bills have been criticized by #students, #teachers and #parents. (3/4)

In #Leicester, the March and rally appears to be taking the same form that it took in 2011. A march through the town centre, & a rally at the Athena Events Venue. I was at that march & rally, and filmed it.

அரசு தரப்புடன் நடைபெற்ற பேச்சுவார்த்தை தோல்வி அடைந்ததால், போராட்டம் தொடரும் என இடைநிலை ஆசிரியர்கள் அறிவித்துள்ளனர்.

ஏற்கனவே 3நாட்களாக உண்ணாவிரதப் போராட்டத்தில் ஈடுபட்டு பலர் மருத்துவ மனையில் உள்ள போதும் போராட்டம் தொடரும் என்றே உறுதியாக உள்ளார்கள்.
அரசுப் பள்ளிகளில் கடந்த 2009ஆம் ஆண்டு மே 31ஆம் தேதி, நியமிக்கப்பட்ட இடைநிலை ஆசிரியர்களுக்கு ஒரு ஊதியமும், அதே ஆண்டு ஜூன் 1ஆம் தேதி நியமனம் செய்யப்பட்ட ஆசிரியர்களுக்கு மற்றொரு ஊதியமும் நிர்ணயிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.
இதனால், ஒருநாள் வித்தியாசத்தில் அடிப்படை ஊதியத்தில் 3,170 ரூபாய் குறைந்துள்ளது. இதனால் 20 ஆயிரத்துக்கும் மேற்பட்ட இடைநிலை ஆசிரியர்கள் பாதிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளனர்.
இந்நிலையில், சம வேலைக்கு சம ஊதியம் என்ற கோரிக்கையை முன்னிறுத்தி, இடைநிலை ஆசிரியர்கள் தொடர்ந்து 4வது நாளாக உண்ணாவிரத

Antibody Affinity Maturation to SARS-CoV-2 #Omicron Variants in a #Teachers Cohort medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Our study, released on @medrxivpreprint this week, looked at the #Covid immunity response of a cohort of primary school staff: 61% had been infected in the 6 months prior to their @Attomarker test and were probably exposed to BA1 or BA.4/5.
The good news is that a number of teachers developed high-quality #antibodies, both in concentration and quality and tuned to the local variant. We think this may have been because they had been repeatedly exposed to SARS-CoV-2.
#ChatGPT is amazingly disruptive! Only time will tell how this tech will transform our lives. For now, I'm enjoying creating poems, crafting emails, & asking weird questions I don't know the answers to. My most fav is, "how can I use the platform to teach middle-school students?"
Brainstorming ideas to leverage the platform for educational purposes. I can already see use cases for creativity education. What else? #AIforEducation #ChatGPT
Another use case. I asked #ChatGPT to create a 100-word reading comprehension paragraph for me that was suitable for 5th graders.

While Republicans are smearing #DragQueens, #teachers and #librarians as "groomers," a GOP candidate in South Dakota THIS NOVEMBER was arrested for grooming and raping a family member over multiple years—and the @sdgop didn't even ask him to drop out of the race.
While Republicans are accusing others of being sexual predators, another GOP candidate in South Dakota this November LOST TO HIS MOM and then went out and raped a woman in the bathroom stall at a bar.
And that's not all:
Last year, the richest man in South Dakota—a YUGE GOP donor—was being investigated for child porn.
Yet somehow this politically connected billionaire ended up facing no charges.

If a #parent of an #SEN child (esp autistic) presents as #anxious, high maintenance, needy, rude, full on or any of the other awful terminology used to describe them, what do you think might be *really* going on. Let’s unpack it 🧵

This is not a new topic. Parents have been talking about the difficulties of being labelled as overly anxious for many years.
So why does this keep happening?

Professionals don’t want to feel helpless. Difficult situations and lack of resources cause feelings of helplessness all around and it is easier to blame the most vulnerable and easy target. The anxious parent. 3/🧵
.@tacomacc For years I have been trying to remember the name of this wonderful English professor who reignited my love of learning and writing over two decades ago. Can you help? (thread on #education #teaching)
Before @tacomacc I went to an expensive Catholic high school in Tacoma that will remain unnamed (cough, cough @BellarminePrep) where I had a horrible experience. I struggled with math & when one lesson was proving especially difficult, I sought extra help.
I came in at lunch each day and after school for a week. Still stumped, I finally said to my teacher: Maybe I learn differently. I'm just not getting it. Can you try to explain it differently?

To give serious space to people like DeAngelis (a ~30 yo lobbyist-w/PhD) to give “thoughts” is appropriate for what the #vouchers movement is but to quote him intellectually rather than a political actor misses the role rightwing think-tanks have played in election denialism

It’s esp problematic given the only real offset to #DeVos/DeAngelis is Mann himself who’s been dead since 1859 and isn’t even directly quoted at that.

I haven’t been to any college, and after failing in 11th class I never went for formal qualification.
When I thought of taking technical education at Pusa Polytechnic, I again failed. Which made me a 10th pass person, or school dropout (sounds cool these days).

But since childhood, I have been blessed with Gurus like Shamona Ma’am, VP Singh Sir, Madhu Ma’am, Rashmi Ma’am, Joel Sir, Indrani Ma’am and so many which can’t be named.
Today on Guru Poornima day, I got an opportunity to teach 5000+ students in Dhule district to address.

Which included those who passed 11th class, that means I was sharing knowledge to more qualified people than me.
It happened just because there were gurus in my life who taught me beyond books and I earned wisdom which I am sharing with thousands.

ASCA is non-profit & drastically slashed budget to survive. Looking at budget breakdown during AGM today, over 50% provides learning opportunities/professional development so parent volunteers can do their legislated jobs on school council #abed #abpoli #parents #volunteers 3/

Who is Responsible??
An old African proverb says it takes a village to raise a child.
Training children is partnership between the Parents. the School and the society they live in.

An old African proverb says it takes a village to raise a child.
Training children is partnership between the Parents. the School and the society they live in.
The report card that just came out now is the results of parents and the school. My conjecture is that something has messed up these kids at home way before school. School has become a conducive environment for enabling the mixing of bad eggs and blank eggs.
Homes and schools ought to be a controlled environment, where children are shielded from some of the things that society offers. Society sings lewd songs with reckless abandon; the media is bursting with inappropriate age sensitive information that is uncensored.
