Wow. A must read.
Newly introduced legislation in Ontario will abolish the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario, and absorbing into the ministry. This is another in a long line of decisions to destroy the autonomy of university in Ontario and place them under greater and more direct government control.
This is a well-documented pattern in medical research and reflects systemic gender bias in pain assessment and treatment.👇
Absolutely true. In this statement, I was thinking about our teachers. And what is happening to my beloved profession.
It set me up to think that the world could be like that. Where is the imagination, vision and planning for our education profession? And what are we losing when we don’t invest in our future potential?

I remember as a kid, laying on sleeping bags in our yard with our black and white tv on the lawn so we could watch the first moon landing. We marvelled at the imagination, vision and plannning that allowed us to achieve such as thing. And the collaboration!

If you strip away purpose and autonomy, you don’t just reduce motivation—you reduce it to its most basic, transactional form.
People will still act, but not with energy, creativity, or ownership.

What an experience for you to witness Oz, after all your work.
And yes- *Ministry. Typing too quickly.
Media perpetuate this labeling and there are implications that go beyond the misnomer. If #teachers are not recognized as full professionals - with autonomy and professional judgment, we will continue to see them leave the profession. It’s not “paint by number” folks.
#OntEd The shift from teachers’ college to Faculties of Education began in the 60s and all programs were Faculties of Education by 1974. Yet our own Munistry of Education continues to refer to it as teachers’ colleges- more than 50 years later. We are a female dominated profession…
They do not leave the initial teacher education program. They leave within the first five years of teaching. This is not a research based response, and the whiplash will have implications not considered.
So Ontario has decided to reduce the #teachereducation program to 12 months. They still refer to it as “teachers’ college” and do not account for the increased complexities in today’s classroom and believe it will help retain teachers who are leaving the profession in increasing numbers. /1

I can’t help imaging what could be achieved in all areas of our lives if we collaborated, shared and aimed for improving all our lives. I have to live in hope to fend off despair at the choice to destroy instead…
