We can have a good conversation about what standards, assessments, and/or evaluations are needed to ensure a teacher is ready for the classroom. But miss me with the idea that you can just walk in off the street and be a teacher. It’s a profession. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

NC bill eliminates standardized testing requirements to become a licensed teacher
The bill goes further than the State Board of Education requested to make it easier to become a teacher in North Carolina.

100%. I want to point out that many not-for-profit journals are in this plot. It's not strictly pocket-padding. There is a huge issue, however, with a model that asks successful authors to fund the editor work that went into rejecting the other 70-90% of papers! 📄 #AcademicSky #ScientificPublishing

New preprint! How often do editors/reviewers actually compare preregistrations to the reporting in the article? Almost never. This figure sums up all of the results. Not good.
A two-panel figure showing the rate at which editors/reviewers mention the preregistration in their reviews, indicate accessing the prereg, and directly compare the prereg to the paper. The left panel is at the article-level and shows percentages of 43, 14, and 10, respectively. The right panel is the editor/reviewer level and shows percentages of 18, 5, and 3, respectively. These are very low levels.
