Four criminal referrals by the Jan. 6 committee—including inciting insurrection, conspiracy to defraud the United States, obstruction of an act of Congress and one more federal crime—for the criminal occupant of our White House who ended the nation’s sacred democratic tradition of the peaceful transfer of power. Now it’s up to Merrick Garland, Jack Smith and the DOJ to do their job and indict and prosecute this man who continues to undermine our democracy.

"If the question can be answered by an AI then it wasn't expecting any insight from the students"

That's wishful thinking, and incorrect. Already the current generation of AI chatbots can create significant insight, especially compared to average high school or middle school children. I've seen scientists and teachers be amazed at what some of these AI programs are writing, under certain circumstances. Teachers are downplaying them at their risk.

Teachers can simply copy the link and add it to a post in #GoogleClassroom. Students make a copy and start drawing. This animation is included in the free document. 👍

Isn’t this interesting?

Hey folks, I’m a social lead at a leading university in Canada and am trying to figure out whether it’s feasible to set up an instance for staff, faculty, and students.

Recognize that this is a big undertaking without many examples to draw from. So, if you’ve encountered any schools or Higher-Ed institutes (or are one!), I’d love to hear about it/you.

So much for freedom of speech on Twitter.

This morning it appears Twitter is blocking all links to #Mastodon. As a precautionary step, I removed direct #Mastodon links & references from my Twitter profile, but you can link TO my #Mastodon channel from my provided profile web link. #twitterexodus #twitter #elonjet

Reminder: If you think I, or anyone else, is detracting from your experience here, you absolutely, no question, should use the block button. I’m TOTALLY fine with that.

Knowing that others can do that frees me to be myself, engage with difficult or controversial subjects, and generally use this medium in the way that works for me. And you should use the way that works for you.

There’s probably room for both of us here.

Twitter users, as of this morning (12/18/2022) can no longer add #mastodon links in their Twitter profile, because any link to any mastodon instance is apparently considered #malware by Elon :-( cc #edtechSR #ConCW #ElonMusk #MediaLit #ElonsWarOnMastodon

If anyone here is posting about the #ScienceofReading, I would love to follow you! I am a reading tutor for grades K-3.

I'm dead serious.

Let's do a #TwitterWalkout next week.

A day next week where everyone commits to not using the site.

Take away what Musk needs from us: our content and our eyeballs.
