I like history. Horses are also cool.
What do you teach? What level? What class size?

And just a tip - saying that “I’m finding it increasingly difficult to teach in the way my students need” is just “complaining about new technologies” is not the way to enter a conversation in good faith.

What do you teach and at what level?
November 27, 2025 at 12:35 AM
Valid.

Also increasingly difficult to find ways to reward effort and taking risks on assignments with how the models are evolving and being used.

It’s becoming increasingly impossible without denying students learning accommodations that they need.

TLJ was truly wonderful. Rogue One is better for Andor, which filled the emotional beat leaps the characters made in the movie. Really cool how watching it was an entirely new experience after Andor.

I hate this bc instead of the actual solution here- increasing funding for arts education- this person is advocating for increased access to the slop button

Seriously, what other president is even remotely in his league?

There was corruption in the Grant and Harding administrations, but the presidents were largely uninvolved. Nixon committed crimes in secret but didn't really line his own pockets.

Trump is like a Thomas Nast cartoon come to life.

Seriously. It’s so gross.

It depends! Huge shifts from far more progressive pedagogy than we have today to incredibly regressive pedagogy (in history ed, anyway) - K12 history education between 1900 and 1980 is absolutely wild.

Yeah, I go back and forth on this - I'm not sure we can actually disentangle them. Even when the accountability system collapses the regimentation it created tends to persist in classrooms, even decades later - plus of course the accountability measures didn't come from thin air.

It's so bizarre because it gets so incredibly close to understanding the social model of disability and identifying that bad, rigid structures exacerbate disability... and then veers straight off into tripling down on ableism.

In addition to everything else, this article punches real history in the gut.
The article: "freedom awaited after the final bell rang, with hours after school to play without the direction of adults."
Actual history:

This article is in desperate need of any understanding of education history, though. Schools didn't suddenly become regimented in the 1980s, geez.

'Regimented schooling is damaging to students' seems to be a central idea here. And yes. We've known that since the early 20th century at least.

The NYT claims diagnosis is a problem despite substantial improvements in detection and early intervention. The problem for them is that there are low needs autistic people who can advocate for themselves and push back against dehumanizing rhetoric like this against those on the spectrum.

That's what this is about. They spoke a lot to the parents of autistic children but almost never to the children themselves. It centers the perspectives of allistic people instead. They absolve themselves of this problem by focusing on high needs autistic children they claim they can't speak with.
