Is your #school and/or #district facing the #ESSER cliff combined with other downward #budget pressure? We could be facing a pivotal moment in #education as the landscape faces remarkable forces for/of change, across #technology ( not just but including #AI of course, with #HCI and #cybersecurity ) and cultural shifts, politics generally, social-emotional development in Society, and so much more ... Here is the thing. It's going to work out. But put on your seatbelt, it might get a little bumpy.

Division, be it by wealth (education, medicine, housing) is a scourge and had been for as long as I can remember in Britain. We have the CoE in the already deeply flawed House of Lords by right, what is next?
Stop using chat rooms (like Discord) as a replacement for tech support forums! Chat rooms and private messaging have a place for synchronous communication, but threads get easily lost, and they’re usually not indexed by search engines. #DevRel#education#stem
BTW: for anyone not familiar with #STEVE it's aurora related but it's caused by the gas, not directly by the charged particles.
Still pretty enchanting
to watch though!

Studies like this are an indictment against Republican policies to purposefully under-fund pre-k and schools in districts where the majority of residents are people of color, ethnic or religious minorities, or poor.
From the article:
Metacognitive abilities may be more influenced by environment than genetics by Eric W. Dolan, May 3, 2024 in Cognitive Science
"...Metacognition refers to the awareness and management of one’s own cognitive processes, such as learning and problem-solving, while mentalizing involves understanding and interpreting the mental states of oneself and others, crucial for effective social interaction.
...Contrary to the traditionally high heritability observed in general cognitive abilities like intelligence, the researchers found that metacognition and mentalizing are more strongly influenced by environmental factors than by genetic ones..."

#Virginia school board restores #Confederate leaders’ names to 2 #schools
The change comes 4 years after the schools had removed the names during the national racial reckoning sparked by #GeorgeFloyd’s killing.
Like other #SchoolDistricts across the #South, the county had decided to remove the #Confederate leaders’ names during the national reckoning about race sparked by the 2020 killing of #GeorgeFloyd.
Private donations will fund the implementation of the name change, according to the school board’s meeting agenda.
The #CEO will be based in #Amsterdam and will be entrusted with the dual responsibilities of overseeing GÉANT’s day-to-day operations and guiding the long-term strategic direction of the organisation.
