Hey, Fedi friends. We're in the process of winding down operations for the year so we can close our office and give our staff a break for the holidays.
...but! We'll be keeping an eye on our account here, so if you have questions about our resources or need any help, please give us shout. (We know overworked teachers may be doing prep for next year over the holidays and we don't want to leave you in the lurch!) We might be a little slower to answer than usual but we are always happy to hear from you and we're thrilled if we can connect you with the resources you're looking for.
We hope you get a bit of time to rest and recharge at the end of the year, too. ❤️

My take on the trend toward 90 credit Bachelor degrees in US higher education, and a few thoughts about the benefits and drawbacks, and about the compromise solution of the Distance Education Accrediting Commission for 3-year programs.
This started out as my response to DEAC's request for comments on their proposal, and I realized I was three fourths of the way to a short essay, so I went ahead and finished it.

After years of prioritizing magnet and charter schools, Chicago is hoping that investing in upgrades to three underenrolled neighborhood schools will lure families back. But it could take years and millions of dollars to see if it works.

Empower young people to make better decisions than we've made: encourage critical thinking.
🤔 Critical Thinking Tips
#2 Be Questioning.
Don't accept everything you hear or read:
▪️ What is the source?
▪️ Who is sharing this?
▪️ Why are they sharing this?
▪️ How is it supported by facts?
▪️ Where can I learn more?
Foster curiosity in young people to support a lifetime appreciation of learning.
📣 Question what you hear and question what you read.

NEW: Programs for #Students With Hearing and Vision Loss Harmed by Trump’s Anti-Diversity Push
==
Federal funding for organizations that help students with hearing and vision loss across eight states will stop at the end of the month, according to letters sent by a top #Education Dept. official and obtained by ProPublica.
Citing concerns about DEI, the U.S. Department of Education has halted funding for programs that support students with combined hearing and vision loss in eight states.
“How low can you go?” one advocate asked. “How can you do this to children?”

These Activists Want to Dismantle Public Schools. Now They Run the Education Department.

Under Trump, the Department of Education has been bringing in activists hostile to public schools. It could mean a new era of private and religious schools boosted by tax dollars — and the end of public schools as we know them.

In 2024, lawmakers celebrated the largest investment in Idaho’s history to fix its schools. But only a handful will be able to fully address challenges to accessibility.
At least 10 districts reported in 2023 that their bathrooms, gyms and cafeterias weren’t all accessible for students with disabilities, with some unable to get their lunch or attend classes on second floors.
