How do we teach our communities about being good digital citizens. Apparently, a new “digital citizenship and media literacy” bill was just introduced. #digitalcitizenship #DigitalCitizen #k12 #education #medialiteracy #edsurge @edutooters @donwatkins @philshapiro

As the EdSoftware space explodes, how do districts know if the content they’re paying for is actually valuable?

Edtech Has Grown More Common, More Global and More Sophisticated. What’s Next?
As 2022 turned into 2023, EdSurge asked educators and education leaders to share reflections on learning “lost” and “gained.”

Speaking of #Giftedness, it's important and useful to acknowledge that the notion has a dark history, connected with #Eugenics.

There's been some coverage of recent controversies about that marred past on #EdSurge, a year and a week ago.

Speaking of #OpenEducation, #Education more generally, #ÉducationÀDeuxVitesses, and #podcasting…
Wonder if we could do some sort of #collaborative listening of this #EdSurge episode on a “new” model for #GiftedEducation.

I’m just reaching the counterpoint section.
Sounds juicy. And fair.
As a disclaimer, I’m predisposed to disagree with the elitist, topdown approach with an explicit connection to Thiel’s secret society.
A new effort is trying to bring a fresh approach to gifted education, and it doesn’t take place in a school building. Instead, it works either as a project-based homeschool curriculum and support system, or as an unusual boarding school option that involves a kind of educational road trip. How does it fit into broader debates about the future of gifted programs?
