General Education

American Educational Research Association (AERA), scholarly inquiry related to education and evaluation, disseminating research results and their practical application. Members include educators; administrators; directors of research; persons working with testing or evaluation in federal, state and local agencies; counselors; evaluators; graduate students; and behavioral scientists.

Bridging Differences from Education Week showcases educator Deborah Meier who professionally blogs about the issues affecting education, students, teachers, and schools. For awhile the series included a vivid debate with Diane Ravitch. The series ended but the posts are still interesting if you can access Education Week.

Brain Pop site that has been around for years. It provides information on a variety of topics to help teachers create engaging lesson plans, and for students.

National Education Policy Center (NEPC) peer-reviewed research reports about the state of public schools. Researchers, writers, and practitioners work to ensure democratic governance of public education is strengthened and policies are based on sound evidence.

No Kid Hungry organization that addresses hungry children. I know it is corporate and I’m not sure how it is run, but they point out that sixty-two percent of teachers see students in their classrooms who are hungry. Check out this website and see what you think. Perhaps the corporations are doing something good here. Better yet, check on the food banks where you live and help out or send them a check.

PBS Learning Media provides videos, interactives, and lesson plans for every subject.

U.S. Department of Education has everything you need to know about what is happening today with education whether you agree with it or not.  Pay attention!

Nancy Bailey: Reading Disabilities: Focus on Public Schools NOT School Choice!

“It’s unfair to say public school teachers fail to teach reading, while charter schools show substandard results. This creates a double standard.” @NancyEBailey1

The focus should be on lifting traditional public schools & reading programs for many students who attend those schools rather than on unproven private and charter schools. Fix IDEA by increasing options. https://nancyebailey.com/2023/01/29/reading-disabilities-focus-on-public-schools-not-school-choice/

Special interests call ESA vouchers “scholarships” because private schools select their students. It’s not “school choice,” it’s the school’s choice 😡#AZVoucherWatch #VouchersHurt #FundOurSchools

On-demand standardized testing has no place in kindergarten. There are far more appropriate and meaningful methods of assessing young children. https://twitter.com/reimagschool/status/1619665302450753536

David Locke @ReimagSchool

My wife's Kindergarten students felt very stressed and were crying when they had to take a standardized test. When she reported this to administrators their solution was "test them until they cry, and then stop." #testthemtiltheycry #resisttesting
