@SandyKendell @edutooters I found peace when I accepted everything is a learning experience building towards more growth…and if I have something to share, it is simply my narrow, incomplete , imperfect understanding of my process. But that it may still be of assistance to someone else, even if to give permission to fall short. 🙃

The best dyslexia/reading difficulty screener is early, appropriately intensive high quality reading instruction that includes all the good stuff including oral language. As early as we can, as well as we can. As an assessment person, I see too much $$ into testing.
Cognitive Biases and Brain Biology Help Explain Why Facts don’t Change Minds
Facts First
Once facts are established, opinions can be formed.
Problem is that while it sounds logical, It is a fallacy not supported by #research
#Cognitive #psychology and #neuroscience studies found that people form opinions based on emotions, such as fear, contempt and anger, rather than relying on facts.
Facts often do not change people’s minds.
@MrsDi @edutooters thanks for sharing this!!
*Seriously good* open access paper just out from Morten Hansen and Janja Komljenovic on automation and assetization in education. Automated #EdTech is a technocommercial strategy "that operates on students and teachers from far away and black-boxed servers." https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s42438-022-00359-4
Just catching up with the new 'Toolbox of interventions against online misinformation and manipulation'. Great resource for introducing people to these concepts (especially policy makers) https://interventionstoolbox.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/

@JoshuaHolland Large uploads to Mastodon instance are server space hogs. Best to host video on Peertube, Youtube, or somewhere else then post link.
@lurker In the USA, per a vet I just asked, you can euthanize a dog without a medical reason
@mathlover Perhaps, it is impatience that pushes us forward.
@mathlover I shout and sometimes, I get an echo. I also like to share stuff. And because I am a loner by nature, I don’t always need affirmation. But I agree wholeheartedly with your approach. It is the best way. I don’t always take the best path. :-)
