What makes the education of multilingual learners so complex? This essay traces the complexity across three issues (the English learner label, “academic language,” and dual language), with implications for both language and content educators. Link: doi.org/10.3102/0013189X2312…

"You have some extreme weather disaster, and people want to know: Did #ClimateChange flood my house? Did climate change make it so hot that my power went out?" - @BerkeleyLab's @MichaelFWehner who studies extreme weather. "Those are good questions." @NPR npr.org/2022/07/07/110781444…

Researchers can now explain how climate change is affecting your weather

For decades, it was impossible to say that a specific weather event was caused, or even made worse, by climate change. But advanced research methods are changing that.

PLS RT ⚡️NEW @ClimateEdTools⚡️ We are developing OER #TeacherEd lesson plans for our recorded webinars on how to teach about the #ClimateCrisis. This ~3hr lesson on @DrKelleyLe & @historianrubio's 🔥 #SciEd work focuses on teaching #EnvironmentalJustice. stemteachingtools.org/link/C…
Image from the embedded video highlighting the Lead in Santa Ana case study. Leveraging Environmental Justice to Unlock the Potential of Education (~3 hours of instruction) Jeanne Norris, Kelley Lê, Juan Manuel Rubio, Deb L. Morrison & Philip Bell (June 2022) Learning Goals Educators will be able to: Define key aspects of environmental justice. Describe rationales and strategies for engaging students in environmental justice learning activities. Explore with learners the socio-historic contexts that influence different traditions of scientific activity and knowledge production. Utilize environmental justice centered curricula resources to focus instruction on societally relevant science.

A total lunar eclipse over the #SouthPole last week. At its peak a giant band of auroras stretched across the sky, as Allen Foster and I watched spellbound from the roof of DSL. Zoom in to see us between the @NSF @SPTelescope and @BICEP_Keck telescope. An absolutely magical night
