Not to sound like woke radical lefties, but we are very much against terminating the United States Constitution.

Hello: has any scientist on here abandoned Twitter for Mastodon entirely? I’m looking to speak to you for a story I’m writing

Flu hospitalizations in the U.S. have reached the highest level in a decade, CDC says.

The bare minimum we should have learned from the last two years is that the best ways to stop an airborne virus is to get vaccinated, wear a mask, and stay home when sick. Why are we all so determined to do the opposite?

Dear reporters, news people, etc.,

The reason you're not getting any reach on Masto is because you need to interact. You just come here, post your news article, and don't engage with the community.

My passion is showing others how to integrate technology into education everyday life and into curriculum in a way that opens and broadens the resources students have available to learn and to present their understanding of what they have learned.

Technology is a tool to use like a fork is to food. It should never be the end result, but the resource to get us to where we need to go.

Another clash of basic values – free exercise of religion versus anti-discrimination – in the supreme court today in case involving a religious website designer, who wants to avoid designing for same-sex couples. Court right wing majority likely to come down strong for her

We set up our own Canva system at school this fall, and it's been super-useful in classrooms. I love tools that allow students focus on content without struggling unproductively with the tools they're using.

Keeping black college students from voting in Georgia seems to be a priority for Georgia legislators.

HBCU students in Georgia face an extra obstacle in voting

Under Georgia law, public colleges and university students can use their student ID to vote. But those at private schools — including seven out of 10 HBCUs — cannot.
