This is such a clear explanation of the discrepancies between school districts in MA. Required reading! Especially for the fools at @BostonMagazine who keep putting out “best schools” lists that completely ignore socioeconomic segregation. masslive.com/news/2022/12/fo…

Vigorous Work v. Rigorous Work
"Invigorating work is authentic work. It drives the teacher. It drives the learner. It drives us. It’s not something we do to kids. It is something we do with and for kids. I raise my support, so I can raise my kids. It’s 'we' work. It’s our work."

Schools can’t spend decades treating writing as transactional—driven by the SAT, AP exams + college essays—then raise hell when students treat it that way, too. My fear is that we’ll just double down on surveillance because of AI rather than reconsidering our shared practices.

1/3 One reason I’m disturbed by the trend for education research to be conducted by economists is that the kind of psychology in which mainstream economics is rooted — indeed, that it takes on faith — is a rusty Skinnerian behaviorism that most psychologists outgrew long ago.

Roughly 50% of teens meet the criteria for a psychiatric diagnosis at some point. Parents, you can help.

I honestly don't know what's worse. The people who blame the students when they struggle. Or the people who blame the teachers.
It's. The. System.

Dunning-Kruger Effect: a person who overestimates their knowledge; they don’t know what they don’t know. Example: Anyone speaking about the “right way” to teach children to read who have never successfully taught children to read.

How to advance your program or career in education:
1. Use standardized test scores to incite panic
2. Highlight a few stories of people with genuinely terrible experiences thus implying those experiences are universal
3. Assert an overly simple solution

Thread:
TLDR: Terms like "college ready" and "proficient" are concepts created by test makers and test sellers.
They can be set wherever the companies want them to be.
