Even though I have 1.5 weeks of summer left, I still (re)read these posts and enjoyed them throughly. Ok putting my head back into the sand for a while longer.

Thinking of all the teachers starting the school year soon! I wrote these posts 4 & 8 years ago. Most of what I said still holds true (the rest was me being dramatic or wrong). Wishing you a great start! 👉 fawnnguyen.substack.com/p/7-… 👉 fawnnguyen.substack.com/p/de…

"An irony is that school outsiders—economists, policy wonks, CEOs, and others—are more likely to promote the magic of great teaching than teachers themselves do." educationnext.org/can-great-…

Can Great Teaching (Plus an App) Solve our Math Problem?

The path to more students loving the subject is anything but simple

@shiffman Hey Daniel, I'm teaching AP CSP with Python. I love love love the Processing libraries but accessing them with Python mode in Processing 4 has been frustrating. It appears to be a dead project. Do you have any suggestions to a better way of using Processing with Python?

In an effort to use best practices from the business world back in the classroom, I’ve decided to fail the bottom 10% of students every year. inc.com/paul-b-brown/should-…

Should You Fire 10% of Your Employees Every Year?

While you may not want to go that far, odds are you have to do something to improve performance.

Do any little birdies know if AP CSA is going to go to Python in the near future? DM's are open, and no citations, would just like an unofficial hint for planning purposes!

All teaching is tough work, but the thing about k-12 classroom teaching is in an important sense it's a job designed for you to fail at.

Hockey Canada completed a study which concluded that 1 quality run practice with many puck touches, game like, decision making, challenging and fun will equal up to eleven "regular" full ice games. Keep that study in mind when designing your practice to maximize development.
