Don't be mad at Zoom and online learning. It is only magnifying the poor pedagogy that was hidden behind your classroom doors #HipHopEd

Paraphrasing James Allen. Circumstances don’t define a teacher. They reveal the teacher. Who are you going to be to the students in your charge in this season... with these new platforms, without the comfort of the classroom. You gon’ teach or nah!!!!!

Got this through one of the teachers at my daughter’s school. Originally from NESCA (Neuropsychology & Education Services for Children & Adolescents).
THIS is why we want to be proactive! The canceling of events, schools, meetings, etc isn't to encourage buying all the toilet paper, but to limit the spread of the virus.
For other daily health habits to boost your immune system, let's chat! I can help!

Feeling joyful about our new coauthored publication, Aspiring Teachers and Urban Education Programs, (rdcu.be/b0Eiein) with my friends @DrAbiolaFarinde @LoriDOCPitt & @Iramurray in @SpringerNature’s The Urban Review. #teachereducation #mentoring ✊🏾❤️

They are calling every bill EXCEPT #NOS2173 ... Attempting to wear us down but the people aren't getting tired! They're trying to attack GOD! That was the wrong move. You've called out ALL the people who BELIEVE in GOD! And those who TRULY believe in God DON'T! GET! TIRED✊🏿🔥
So encouraged to see that so many #equity focused researchers are making the necessary connection to #MentalHealth! TY @adam_alvarez13 @MilnerHRich @LoriDOCPitt for your great work in this area! 👏🏼👊🏼🙌🏼
Such an important topic and dilemma here. Please see Race, Trauma and Education by Alvarez, Milner, (@MilnerHRich)and DeLale-O’Connor (@LoriDOCPitt). Also, in a 2017 article, “Seeing their eyes...”, I questioned the universal approach of trauma-informed practices. Let’s connect!

Justice and equity demand that we make clear “What story is told?” + “Whose story is told?” + “What is hidden and deserves sunlight?” We have work to do. #MakerEdConvening | Thank you @ValerieKinloch + @SunannaC for shining and sharing light.
Lightning Share Out to kick off the PLC! Ts get to share the cool things they've been doing to establish a positive classroom culture. @RowanCED @dr_LJVD
(@Jeff_Evancho and @peterwardrip would be proud!) 😁
Taking @hgse @AgencybyDesign strategies to @RowanUniversity 🙌🏼🎊🎉
