Except data has shown surface spread to basically be a non issue.


Data has shown that learning styles are bunk, phonics are amazing, masters in education degrees are useless for teaching, and growth mindset does nothing. Nobody cared. I wouldn't expect any more attention to the nitty gritty of covid spread.


This poster definitely has a fixed mindset. 😄


Sadly true. I'm sure I'd have done better if, when I grew up, there had been more culturally aware restorative justice circles utilizing the kinesthetic style in open classrooms, building my empathy through trauma-informed teaching in a student engagement geared makerspace, giving me the grit for life-long learning those 21st century skills.

The touching paper thing isn’t just about COVID. I caught fewer colds when I reduced hard copy assignments.

Remember how we were all going to have paperless offices?
Now we have more paper because documents are sent so easily electronically and get printed!


This is a totally weird post. Where do you work? I don't know anyone or any profession that is using more paper rather than less.

If there's any industry that's fad-driven, it's education, and neither writing nor reading on paper is one of the current fads. I mean, eew, grandma did that. How uncool can you get?

As an educator, I hate the push to use tech without purpose. Yes, it’s helpful to do research and for typing essays, but it isn’t needed for absolutely everything. I’m most looking forward to less screen time once the pandemic is under control.
