33 years ago tonight, 14 women went to bed thinking about their finals, future in STEM and the upcoming holiday season. They didn’t know that these dreams threatened a man’s sense of self worth and that they wouldn’t survive to see their goals and aspirations become a reality.

I had a fantastic time in Canada with @DreamscapeEDU talking about how we use AI to create culturally responsive content in edtech!
There's not a whole lot of people out there doing this.

This is what happens every time someone like me gets fired for a book. They don’t have to censor books. Teachers censor themselves out of fear. #fREADom #KidsNeedSillyBooks #edutwitter

A Utah parent has utilized a new law that permits the removal of "pornographic" books from school libraries and requested the removal of the Bible, which they referred to as "one of the most sex-ridden books around."
The parent, who has chosen to remain anonymous for privacy reasons, submitted an appeal on December 11th along with an eight-page list of Bible passages that they found objectionable and deemed worthy of review.
The parent argued that the Bible contained topics such as incest, bestiality, genital mutilation, and infanticide, making it pornographic under the new definition set forth in Utah Code Ann. § 76-10-1227 and therefore without serious value for minors.
A GOP lawmaker expressed sadness regarding the situation.

One of the silent killers of #innovation in #education is ineffective leadership.
Don't get attached to the "way it's done" or what you tried in the past that doesn't work.
Work hard to experience innovation from OUTSIDE of the education world.
Let it challenge you
