For Bourque Bearskin and Dick, the work they’ve been doing over the last few years, including the development of the #MastersProgram, is better aligning #healthcare with the principles of #UNDRIP.
#Genocide needs to be taught in all schools. It's sad to see so many adults who obviously never learned what genocide truly is. They really believe that it's only genocide if almost every person targeted in a genocide is dead. There's more to genocide than only body counts.

>160k student loan borrowers are now in line to have their balances canceled, bringing the total amount of #DebtForgiveness allowed under the Biden admin’s policies to $167B, the #Education Dept announced Wed.
With the #election months away, #POTUS#Biden is lauding his admin’s achievements in delivering loan cancellation to nearly 4.8M people through a mix of existing programs & new policies. #Republicans have remained staunchly opposed to the effort, decrying it as a waste of taxpayers’ money & patently unfair to Americans who never went to college.
“I promised to fight to ensure higher education is a ticket to the middle class, not a barrier to opportunity,” #Biden said in a stmnt Wed. “I will never stop working to cancel student debt — no matter how many times Republican elected ofcls try to stop us.”
The #Colorado#GOP is absolutely nuts (not to mention completely hateful). Their attack on public schooling has taken a more direct tact. This is the crazy train, folks.
Reminds me of my colleagues faces when I told them to just use office template files, so that people would no longer misname copies of existing files or mistakenly change last weeks document.
Since opening templates always results in a new unsaved unnamed document. 👍
A South Korean province removed more than 2,500 books on sex education, gender equality and feminism from school libraries.
The person behind the campaign claims the books promoted the “early sexualization” of children through “sexual explicitness” and the “promotion of homosexuality.”
#China's internet #censors have deleted a video in which #children at a private #PerformingArts school in the southwestern province of #Sichuan dance to British rock band #PinkFloyd's 1979 hit "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" which featured a choir of #schoolchildren protesting overbearing authority & "thought control" in #education.
The new book by Salman Khan, of Khan Academy fame, will be of interest to anyone interested in how chatbots will influence education. There is definitely a place for them as personalised learning tutors. Especially for learners who would have zero chance of getting a human tutor for one-to-one learning. #LLM#Education https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/460644/brave-new-words-by-khan-salman/9780241680964
