The numbers on college closures are staggering: Nearly 300 colleges and universities offering an associate degree or higher closed from 2008 to 2023. @ReporterMarina and @oliviarsanchez created a tool to track this seismic shift in higher education. hechingerreport.org/college-closur…

As the climate crisis deepens, more teachers will be asked to modify their lessons and introduce different content when disasters strike. I explore how educators did that after Hurricane Beryl in my latest climate & ed newsletter mailchi.mp/586e64311217/t…

In Norway, having a joyful, secure childhood is a right enshrined into law. Child care isn't just a place to put children so parents can work, it’s a place where childhood is protected, with access guaranteed and heavily subsidized for all. My latest: hechingerreport.org/norway-law-dec…


"The government’s view isn’t that child care is a place to put children so parents can work, or even to prepare children for the rigors of elementary school. It’s about protecting childhood." @jackiemader on what it looks like to enshrine early ed in law hechingerreport.org/norway-law-dec…

Louisiana imposed a total ban on cell phones in schools this year and it turns out...people kind of love it. Teachers are reporting big improvements in focus & social interaction, and many students are happy to unplug. Great reporting by @elysecarmosino nola.com/news/education…

I debated whether to share this. I did apologize on the air. But I invite you to read my introspection on @BulletinAtomic of how extreme weather 📈 driven by global warming has changed me. Frankly, YOU should be shaken too, and demand #ClimateActionNow. thebulletin.org/2024/09/hurric…
