A plea: If anyone knows of a Secondary English position at a school around Hampshire/Surrey/West Sussex, I am looking for a new position. But I am fussy - needs to be a great headteacher and a culture of collaboration. I bring great results, a genuine love of the subject and Whimsy. Lots of Whimsy. #GetFediHired #Teaching #Education #UKTeaching #SecondarySchool #edutoot #edutooters #Job #JobSearch @edutooters

"We may not all be equally guilty. But we are all equally responsible for building a decent and just society."
- Ruby Bridges

On this day in 1960, Ruby Bridges walked into a New Orleans school and sparked change that still shapes classrooms today.

Wow! This is doing numbers, so let us add that if you are looking for resources to teach about Civil Rights and Black History (in the US and around the world), and/or if you enjoy international award-winning films that center Black stories, we recommend our Black History Collection.

Our educational resources are all free and they can be used across the curriculum. Many of the films stream for free as well!

Once upon a time in a university near you, in-person teaching was a thing, as you can see in this image of 1612. Young people with hats came together, regularly and voluntarily, prepared for classes, and enjoying a lively learning situation of *checks notes*, a 90 minutes monolog of someone else ...

The image of 1612 shows an academic scene of early modern Europe: a lecture hall with a professor on a professorial chair at the upper centre, a large groups of students present.

This is one from a series of eighteen plates by the workshop of Crispijn van de Passe, depicting scenes of academic life, more here: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1972-0722-6-3 — The image of 1612 shows an academic scene of early modern Europe: a lecture hall with a professor on a professorial chair at the upper centre, a large groups of students present.

What we're reading:

"Asked to generate intervention plans for struggling students, AI teacher assistants recommended more punitive measures for hypothetical students with Black-coded names and more supportive approaches for students the platforms perceived as white, a new study shows."

We know that educators are bombarded with (VC-funded) hype about AI tools as magical solutions. Please don't take these claims at face value and do your own due diligence. 1/3

Did you know that New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani was the music supervisor for Queen of Katwe?

He also appears in the film as "Bookie Student" and was third assistant director. And he performs on the soundtrack as a rapper!

We are more thrilled than ever to offer free educational resources for this amazing film in our Resource Library! 👇 1/2

On the left, a young Black Ugandan girl's face is turned down, showing only her forehead and the crown of her head with short-cropped hair. Her head is surrounded by a colorful halo of flowers and objects, and in its center there is a carved wooden chess piece.

On the right, text say: David Oyelowow. Lupita Nyong'o. Madina Nalwanga. Disney's Queen of Katwe. — On the left, a young Black Ugandan girl's face is turned down, showing only her forehead and the crown of her head with short-cropped hair.

August is American Artist Appreciation Month! We’re celebrating Corita Kent, also known as Sister Mary Corita! The acclaimed artist and teacher used painting and calligraphy to convey ideas about peace, racial harmony and social justice.

Lesson 3 The Power of Corita Kent’s Calligraphic Art in our free Rebel Hearts Curriculum Guide features a hands-on Visual Arts lesson suitable for grades 9-12 based on Sister Mary Corita’s artwork. It’s a powerful tool to help students find their voice through multi-media artwork.

You and your students can learn more about Sister Mary Corita / Corita Kent, her revolutionary protest art, and her time as a nun in the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary with award-winning documentary Rebel Hearts and the Rebel Hearts Curriculum Guide.
