I don't think people fully appreciate how apocalyptic things are for US science. I haven't had any new funding since 2024, but I'm still ok since typical grants are for three years. This means next year I will be completely out of funding and will have to fire everyone in the lab. It's not great.

A few warm-up questions from this week in my high school Calculus class. I start each day with a question. Sometimes for review/retrieval, sometimes to launch the day's discussion and sometimes for practice/consolidation. #ITeachMath #MathsToday

framework for planning: what? so what? now what? in a cycle

Love seeing @jennalaib.bsky.social using this framework. I learned from @deltadc.bsky.social . Often ask learners to pick one to consolidate thinking. Applying to planning is great. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dH7...

a man in a suit and tie is asking if he has something for me ALT: a man in a suit and tie is asking if he has something for me

Hi everyone! It’s been a minute.

Need your help with high school math sequences. Anyone whose school changed from an alg1/geo/alg2 sequence to alg1/alg2/geo??

Or have read research on the topic.

We no longer have funds for conferences. I think it is so important to have those connections and learning with teachers from other states and countries.

Shelli was a guiding light for me during virtual COVID learning. Her Saturday Zooms helped keep my sanity. I was always inspired by her continuous learning. Such a loss. May she rest in peace. Her legacy lives on.
