Wow. This, THIS is why I’m so happy Dems and folks like @marcelias fought for Saturday early voting for the #GeorgiaRunoffs !!
Want an introduction to #CulturallyResponsiveTeaching, not to be confused with #CriticalRaceTheory?
You need to watch this 2017 webinar via Corwin.
In anticipation of reading Zaretta hammond’s book, Culturally Responsive Teaching and The Brain, I decided to watch her webinar (twice, it was that good!).

Any other High School Game Design Teachers on Mastodon, let's connect #edutooters
@aus_teach @AlliFlowers @edmunds_t @edutooters that, and also how we define “engagement” are always fun conversations to have.
@edmunds_t @aus_teach @edutooters I definitely find that enthusiasm for the content AND your students can allow you to smooth out almost any bump. It also (I think) makes you into the kind of teacher that doesn’t struggle so much to “hold” a class’ attention (whether you are talking or they are—your commitment to them and the topic models the excellence you want them to find in themselves.)
Great article from @dajb about governance on Mastodon servers. Like social.coop, Friend Camp has started using Loomio to make group consensus decisions around things like non-obvious defederation, and it's working out really well.

I recommend instance admins look into Loomio. Once we have used it a bit more on Friend Camp I am going to post a how-to and best practices for small servers.

I don't know if I would be surprised. I often have to convince academics that "fun" is not the antithesis of "rigor."

And we need to have fun - and be seen to be having fun - when we are teaching. Often, our enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious.
If you enjoy someone's post on #Mastodon go ahead and click the star. If someone tells you that's meaningless because there's no #algorithm, ignore them. Sure, boost the post too if you want others to also see the post, but don't think telling someone you like what they posted is somehow unimportant. In real life I don't tell someone, "good job," or "well said," or "I love that," for the sake of some algorithm, I do it because I'm human and they are too. It's fundamental to being truly social.

I wrote this article six months ago, detailing how we are on a disturbing parallel track with #Weimar Germany. The Nazis used #propaganda and conspiracy theories to blame the loss of WWI on “Jews, liberals and communists” who become #scapegoats for a hate cult. Sound familiar?
In 1923, Hitler attempted an insurrection called the Beer Hall Putsch, was sent to a cushy jail for a year, wrote Mein Kampf, and came out even stronger.

Trump went from claiming he didn't know who David Duke is to welcoming Nazis with open arms to his home. GOP's silence is predictable. This is who they are.
