NEW: An NYT investigation has found that scores of Hasidic Jewish schools in New York are purposely denying some 50,000 students a basic secular education – and have received $1 billion in taxpayer dollars over the last 4 years. w/ @brianmrosenthal nytimes.com/2022/09/11/nyr…

Together, we can serve more students and teachers. Desmos has a proven model for creating delightful and humanizing interactions between teachers, students, computers, and math. @Amplify knows how to support this work at scale.

📣 Exciting news. Desmos Classroom—the team running our free activities, free Activity builder, and math curriculum—is joining forces with @Amplify desmos.link/desmos-amplify


It's rare, but every once in a while one falls in love with an ed tech product. When it came to Mathigon, it was love at first polygon for me and the team at Amplify... I am so delighted we are joining forces. Expect big - and intricate little - things!

We’re excited to announce that Mathigon is joining @Amplify! You can read more in our press release at mathigon.org/press. Polypad and our other tools will remain freely available, and you can look forward to many cool new features in the next few months!

what is with this tendency in the ed sector towards terrible, redundant modifiers? i.e., "strategic leadership," "transformational innovation," and "dramatically better?"

Maybe it wasn’t such a great idea to reduce the number of classes that teach civics, democracy and American history?

In 1964 a Black and Jewish man fighting for civil rights in the south were murdered for their leadership. Today a Black and Jewish man fighting for civil rights in the south were made US Senators for their leadership. “Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia” indeed

The Biden team may not be getting their transition briefings, but the students of American can at least get to work on some inaugural poems. #InaugurationDay2021 poets.org/academy-americ…

An educator from Oakland Unified Schools District shared this image with me. The air feels lighter as they start school this week. The future brighter. Our POTUS and VP elect will continue a path that’s been carved by the fortitude of others. Some even as young as six.

I spoke to an old therapist friend today, and finally understood why everyone’s so exhausted after the video calls. It’s the plausible deniability of each other’s absence. Our minds tricked into the idea of being together when our bodies feel we’re not. Dissonance is exhausting.
