Humanity did that. Science did that. Publicly-funded research did that. Excellent universities did that. Diversity did that. International cooperation did that.
Artemis II is a perfect example of what we can do at our best.

Spoiler alert: nothing trickled down.
Instead of funneling endless amounts of money into our bloated Pentagon budget while thousands of veterans face homelessness and hunger, let’s use those funds to truly take care of our veterans — ensuring every one has a home, food, and access to medical and mental health care.
all of us. The earth from space.
Amazing to realize that every single one of us, save four, are in this photo.
The NSF 2027 budget has noted that they will close out the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Science Program (SBE). This is not a good thing. nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/FY-202...

History will be made and space will become a little more inclusive TODAY when my friend Michi Benthaus will become the first ever wheelchair user to leave our planet’s atmosphere (and only the second German woman to do so).

So many educators I talk to want to know the most effective ways to teach & assess writing. I wanted to know too. I’m psyched to share what we’ve found over 15 years. I’m most excited to share it at the amazing Planet Word Museum! @thereadingleague.org

When I visited my rural PA family, data centers were all they talked about. If people want the rural vote, listen to their concerns about data centers.
Tweet by Jay Bhattacharya: It's the height of irony that the European Commission fined @elonmusk 's @x for not being transparent. The old Twitter handed out blue checks to cronies with no transparency whatsoever. The purpose of the old Twitter blue check system was to suppress dissidents and censor speech. Quote tweets himself saying: Twitter 1.0 placed me on a blacklist & denied me a blue check on the grounds that I am not noteworthy enough. Meanwhile, Twitter 1.0 gave blue checks to every covid alarmist, whatever their credenitals and lack of notoriety. The EU is silencing political opposition.
Imagine you're overseeing the termination of clinical trials, the destruction of people's livelihoods, the dismantling of scientific research in the US, and you're complaining that Twitter didn't give you a blue check 4 years ago.
We're half a decade into studies finding that improving airflow in classrooms will reduce disease transmission enormously, and that bleaching surfaces etc. does very little. And yet nothing changes. Waves of flu and colds wash over schools, and the schools pretend it's an act of God.
As RFK Jr.'s new vaccine panel ponders changing the hepatitis B vaccination schedule, some doctors recall past patients, including children, who died painful deaths before there was a vaccine. n.pr/3McwKqG
"Fifty years ago, Ed Martin helped write the law that made clear to all states and all public schools: Children with disabilities deserve better. The law, he says, was "an affirmation of the values of the country."
He hopes that's still true."

This indiscriminate dismantling of education research has been plaguing my colleagues & dear friends all year. Eliminating the penny spent on education research will do nothing for the federal debt but will continue US decline in world rankings.
The system is broken.
www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc... fantastic article about the reach (and not) of invention. Made me think a lot about education invention and what we need to do

You can't see DLD (Developmental Language Disorder ) so what does it look like in the classroom?
DLD can look like ADHD but you'll also notice that children with DLD have difficulty using words and sentences and understanding, even when they are focussed.

New podcast episode out this week! We're celebrating back to school talking about assessment. #SoR teachingliteracypodcast.com/e68strategic...
High school students had worse scores in reading and math on national tests in 2024 than they did before the pandemic.
Only about 1 in 3 seniors were ready to do college-level work in math and reading.
The Ed Department cancelations jeopardize more than $30 million worth of federally funded efforts in 14 states to help educators better serve students with disabilities. 1/2
