Building Trust & Community in a #Gradeless Classroom from @TheresaWalterE1: If the traditional measures we have for telling ourselves where we stand are removed, are we going to have to learn to trust ourselves?
#education #edchat #restorehumanity ๐
OK, if there ever was a community to ask, it must be this: I am looking for #OER communities, practises, repositories etc for #K12/upper secondary/high school level. We at NDLA would so much like to discuss and collaborate. #school #education #learning #open #openeducation
๐ข Teachers can select a grade level and specific math skill to host a live competitive math game with @99mathgame. Invite players with a code. (At least 3 players needed to start the game).
Hi, I'm Conrad, Senior Demographer & Associate Director of Research at Pew Research Center.
Here I post the best of our new and classic research. I also highlight great work and clever data visualizations by others.
My own research focus is global religious change.

#introduction
Hello good people of Mastodon!
Nadait here! From Asmara, Eritrea. For work, I run Hagush, an organization working to make tech access universal. For fun, I do fun things: I read, I write, I dance, and from time to time, I fall madly love (please note that this is an exhaustive list). When Iโm not working or having fun, you can find me musing about the brain, development economics, and human progress. Iโm partial to stories, kitfo, memes, & people who make memes. #twittermigration
If you are missing certain #Twitter people but do not want warm your rear on that dumpster fire site, you can follow people from #fedilab, an #android app!
Just go to MANAGE TIMELINES, click the + button, choose "Twitter accounts (via nitter)" and type in the account. It will show up in the top bar.
You cannot like, retweet, etc but you can read.
In the example below, I am following #SarahMillican.
Hey - I'm Britt - the instance #admin for https://mstdn.games - a new server dedicated to #gaming! #introduction
I was part of the great #TwitterMigration and spent 12 years on that platform. I'm really excited to be here and love the community.
A bit about me: Iโm an elder #millennial located in #Canada with my amazing wife @craftykraken ๐.
I care about: #lgbtq, #disability, #hockey, #cats, #vinyl, #books, #reading, and oh! Iโm #Autistic + #ADHD.
Iโd love to connect. :)
Over 8 million people using Mastodon now. It is hosted on over 22,000 servers, but like with email, everyone can communicate with everyone else.
Since no one person or company owns those servers, no one person or company can buy them or break them. #Mastodon #TwitterMigration
Very excited to see this article by @izavarise with @mollyjongfast , @adamdavidson & myself. Am excited that my team's research could help this discussion as we all work to understand the latest twists and turns in the #TwitterMigration.

The group found that Mastodon โ an app described as “social networking that’s not for sale” by its website โ is steadily growing by approximately 1.5 million new users per month. Since Musk’s takeover, Mastodon account names have been added to the Twitter bios of more than 90,000 users and mentioned by users nearly 200,000 times in the last 30 days, as per Dewey Digital. https://www.businessinsider.com/twitter-migration-shows-no-signs-of-slowing-following-musks-takeover

50 Canva Tutorials for Teachers
https://www.freetech4teachers.com/2022/12/50-canva-tutorials-for-teachers.html
We set up our own Canva system at school this fall, and it's been super-useful in classrooms. I love tools that allow students focus on content without struggling unproductively with the tools they're using.
