I am loathe to agree with Yglesias, but getting rid of IMPACT would be bad. They've done a lot of work to attend to the unintended consequences and really I am worried about world with no accountability for the most disadvantaged students.

Back to IMPACT, lots of Obama-era performance pay systems didn't really work. But DC's program has been very successful and has driven good results for kids. slowboring.com/p/we-should-p…

It also does nothing to alter the culture of assessment or the stakes associated with success or failure (presumably one reason why studies show that grade inflation is higher at more affluent schools). 10/

I suspect state university systems need to be first movers in trying to address this issue bc they control a lot of the desired rewards and likely have more (local) credibility. Still, the “fix” will have to be as much cultural, structural than technical (eg forced curves). 11/x

2/ This is actually my second (weird) piece on LLMs. First one here: frontporchrepublic.com/2025/…

I wrote a short piece about hatred (but really love) and LLMs (but really humanity) at @FrontPorchRepub, if anyone is interested. frontporchrepublic.com/2026/… #AI #education #philosophy #Nietzsche

Is There Room for Enmity in the A.I. Classroom?

By heightening emotion, hatred deepens the personhood of both teachers and students.
