Teachers, did you know that Lynx coding is free for Canadians thanks to federal funding through the CanCode initiative? Lynx is a text-based coding program in many languages, including French, Anishinaabe, Mi'kmaw, Kanien'kéha, and Oji-Cree. Lakehead University's research team is working with Indigenous community partners to explore how incorporating coding can help us better understand Anishinaabe and Métis ways of knowing mathematics differently from a Western European conception of mathematics. The software allows students to explore mathematical concepts inherent in beadwork or weaving, such as computational thinking, patterning and algebraic reasoning, proportional reasoning, and geometric transformations. The current project will extend these previous explorations and also include other technologies, such as birchbark basket making. #coding #mathematics #IndigenousKnowledge #CanCode #LakeheadU

What if, by doing nothing, you end up not only with closures but everyone actually infected too

Even if Omicron is less virulent than Delta, the massive number of new cases still results in hospitalization & puts pressure on a healthcare system that was stretched prior to this wave.
Covid-related personnel absences (via infection & exposure) further exacerbate the problem.

I’m absolutely sick of the media exploiting past relationships just to drive clicks.

The world looks different now. She was great at defying expectation. She managed to grow very old and somehow, not old enough. We’ll miss you, Betty. Now you know the secret.

Watch this video. So many teachers are giving everything they have to support students during the pandemic, but the toll it's taking is massive. Teachers and education workers need to be supported by their employers and by the government. #BellLetsTalk

A Deputy Minister of Canada writes an open letter about the racism he has experienced in and out of the halls of power.
It is unusual for a top public servant to speak so openly.

The Minister of Ed was clear in his school reopening protocols that all school board staff would be provided with PPE, specifically medical grade masks. Here is what numerous schools are receiving... Non Medical Use masks all sourced by the gov.
