One of the things I'm thinking about this morning is the fact that often, teachers are hesitant to share their best practices with one another.

That's always confused me, simply because I never really see my strategies as original to me. They are versions of things I learned from others.

Do you see that same sense of "possession" over good ideas from your peers?

And if so, why do you think that is? Why to we protect -- rather than share -- good ideas?

We're all gonna need this sooner than expected so here is my proposed APA 7 style citation format for citing a Mastodon post

Lastname, F.M. [@mastodon@handle.tld] (20XX, Month DD). Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut ... [Mastodon post]. Name of instance. [URL of post]

As with the format for citing a Twitter post, the correct reference list title is the first 20 words of the post, and the correct short title is the first 5, both using an ellipsis if necessary.

If you don't fundamentally believe that all students can learn and want to succeed, teaching may not be the right career for you.

Yes, the work is hard. No, you won't always get it right.

But once you stop believing, you also stop trying -- and that ain't right.
