Like, congratulate them fwiw and offer them a more complex *puzzle*. The thing about puzzles and their dialogical structure is that through them, unlike in the conflict of games, everyone wins. /fin

The capitalist state thanks you. Congratulations, you've gamed the game. The prize is: it stays the game. You can move on to whining about how technology allowed your students to game the game. Now if otoh you opt for producing intelligibility for yourself and the students? 9/10

If you're on the side of learning, then the students will be on your side too. To me, teachers striking for a day "stopping production" seems like merely proving the systems works as it should: producing surplus value (future surplus population). 8/10

If by refusing to do all that shit that gets you the salary and the pension makes you afraid--- i mean, what is the state going to do? Expel you from the school by use of force? The state only wants you to herd the kids of its workers, you and yours among them. 7/10

They'll appreciate it and show you in their results that you're doing good work. Engage with your students in ways that you can see your methods reflected and even critiqued in the results. 6/10

LLM's are screwing up your assessment of your student's skills? Change your assessment. Pardon me if this is simple-minded, but you'll be getting free time to assess your student's progress in many different, more intelligible ways. 5/10

Every single teacher says "this clips my wings, i can't teach anymore" - well then don't do it, go teach. And don't do it again, and keep on not doing it. Summative assessment crimps your flow, is a mediocre diagnostic tool perverting the way you teach? Don't do it. 4/10

Put up some posters, chant some slogans, walk slowly and solemnly along a big avenue. tbf i think this is sad, nothing else. want to strike about the paperwork, the stupidity of summative assessment? Strike by not doing it. En masse, of course. 3/10

it may come off as completely out of the loop but atm i don't think it is; maybe it'll work by isomorphism: when thinking abt the amount of utterly junk paperwork teachers in portuguese k12 schools have to do, i was reminded of how they strike. 2/10
