Appreciate this list of low-tech, time-honored approaches to teaching social-emotional learning in schools.

Social-emotional learning is troubling especially due to the sensitive DATA collected on children and how it will be used. It is an issue that should concern all parents and educators. @Screensandkids https://nancyebailey.com/2022/05/02/the-trouble-with-social-emotional-learning-why-be-concerned-heres-why/

"Learning Loss" is a marketing scheme invented by ed tech companies, and embraced by the media. They create problems to solve in order to sell products. Oldest trick in the book. https://twitter.com/ELmagazine/status/1524776412233625603

“If students became more independently driven, or resilient in the face of at-home distractions . . . it wouldn’t necessarily appear in their test scores.” @YongZhaoEd

New research raises questions on capturing a complete view of learning loss. https://bit.ly/3Peuc8A

@hanna_hurley @NancyEBailey1 We're a society that believes the lead issue has been eradicated & the health experts are doing everything possible to protect our children.

It hasn't & they aren't.
