There seems to be widespread recognition that bad facts are bad news, and, despite skepticism, there is an enduring thirst for reliable information. The question is, where can it be found, and how can its purveyors make themselves heard amid the noise?
What’s a Fact, Anyway?
Journalists put more stress on accuracy than ever before. The problem is, accuracy is a slippery idea.

"Students contextualizing events to understand systems + patterns is dangerous to power." This applies to math just as much as history. Math is not objective, as much as some people would like to think it is. #MTBoS #ITeachMath #EduSky

Current events aren't welcome because they're seen as "political," (as if everything isn't already!) Students contextualizing events to understand systems + patterns is dangerous to power.

I often think about @covingtonedu.bsky.social 's story about leaving teaching.

“Current Events Do Not Belong in History Class”
