Almost time to rejoin the real world but this time on the big island with my @joekrulder.bsky.social has been a beautiful transition into summer.

Teacher friends, What stage of end of Winter break are you in? I am currently in “I am super excited to head back to my classroom, except first, I need to spend all day cooking to distract myself from the fact that these transitions are so hard.“ Exhibit A: huge pot of spaghetti sauce

“It is simply self-defeating for any community to discriminate against half its population.” Jimmy Carter’s writings made me look at religion in a new way. I will be forever grateful for his humanitarian work, and his thoughtful, intelligent discourse. womensordinationcampaign.org/blog-working...

Just read the response from Costco to shareholders requesting it back down from DEI. It was glorious. It begins "Our Board has considered this proposal and believes … an enterprise rooted in respect and inclusion is appropriate and necessary." and gets better. A happy investor #diversityandinclusion

Ok here we go, so some things that will actually help teachers, education, and our public schools. Let's start with teacher training. 1. Incoming college freshmen should get tuition scholarships/discounts for being education majors. Here's a version of that but we could tweak it any 🧵 #edusky

So important to remember. I’ve been working for over 25 years to find ways to help students find a love for reading and it wasn’t until I recognized and acknowledged the complexity of students experiences with reading, that I started doing a better job.

A lot of people think everything will work out if we just play by the rules but don’t seem to recognize that rules only matter when everyone agrees to follow them and, well, that isn’t our present reality.

So true. Direct instruction has its place, especially for teaching introductory information about a topic, but research has also shown that students need different methods for learning critical thinking skills. #aplitchat

SO hard, but I have been given the time (I teach 2 classes and for the rest of the day, I support teachers) to find out what the teachers need and how to get it for them. It's extremely rewarding and it's given me a perspective to see systemic solutions I'd never imagined before. #aplitchat

Jori Krulder @jorikrulder.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

Yes, according to the research, DI can be effective, but once again, the author oversimplifies and uses his point as a bludgeon to discount any other method of teaching and learning, many of which are also shown to be effective, and which he doesn't actually seem to fully understand. #aplitchat

Jori Krulder @jorikrulder.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

I agree! It's so much more complex than the author lets on #aplitchat

Jori Krulder @jorikrulder.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

A2. The oversimplification of the problems in education and the complete failure to offer solutions. It seems to have been written solely to fan the flames of dissatisfaction, and I have a big problem with that, particularly as someone who is working daily to make things better #aplitchat

Jori Krulder @jorikrulder.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

A1: Love this question. I don't think the article does good in and of itself, but discourse like ours can use this opinion as a jumping off place to look for solutions. I've realized, with all of the vague criticism Adam's offers, he gives no concrete ideas for change #aplitchat

Every. Time. A group of our teachers have been meeting regularly to work on this problem. I believe we’re making some headway using #ImprovementScience, but I would love to connect with anyone else doing concerted work on this. #edusky

I’ve been going with my old standards: fiction and cooking but recently I’ve also discovered a new stress reliever: jigsaw puzzles, of all things! Never really paid attention to them before, but I discovered one from the Magic Puzzle company at a thrift store and I am addicted 🧩
