My latest for @BW investigates the elite international school industry. One in which schools request "White Only" teachers and job candidates are filtered by skin color. A thread--> bloomberg.com/news/features/… via @BW

Elite International Schools Have a Racism Problem

Around the world, finishing schools for the Davos class teach excellence—as long as the excellence is White, Western, and English-speaking.

Trick or Treat! Ss in @ISB_MS #ClubInfinity had a spooky time hunting ghosts, carving jack o'lanterns with #pentominoes and playing Deal or No Deal. When giving candy to students, try playing with probability - either Monty Hall or expected value games. #mathclub #halloweenmath

Can you tell we’re excited to finally hold an in-person @ISB_MS Club Infinity session? It was the perfect opportunity to play with some recently rediscovered paper folding puzzles. Colour puzzle by @scottekim. Crazy Eights puzzle shared via @mathequalslove. #mslearns #mathclub

One example of how to implement this is to reduce or eliminate accelerating mathematics in the middle school. Spend time there on problem solving and going deeply instead of teaching multiple courses in one year just to get to Calculus faster.

I'm so tired of how much time we spend teaching math that few will ever use during their entire life, just in case a small percentage of us might need it. Like I've used almost nothing I learned in Geo, Alg 2, PreCalc, and Calc but I need statistics and other math all the time.
