Greg McVerryHey All #ctcaslchat I deactivated my facebook. I will miss the AASL Future Ready Librarians group. It was really active. I think long term we should move all our networking off private networks, or syndicate to social media from a space or professional organizations control

Greg McVerry@epikalliance My rules as video gaming family: 1. As parent I have right to break any of these rules. 2. Equal amount educational for video games (reading, chess apps, creative apps). 3. Slim chance of video games during M-F. 4. Shared playing time is important. Not always 1:1

Greg McVerryWhen I discuss online reading with my cognitive friends they often want to equate what I describe as skilled readers as "short term memory" but its more than that. It's more like knowledge spasms that can be wrangled with effective tool use
Greg McVerryWith assessment we must ask, "Just because we should does it mean we can?" but with learnign analytics I think we now must ask, "Just because we can does it mean we should?"

Greg McVerryThis is a massive policy shift and regardless what people think we need to be aware of redistribution of Title I funds for new education models. https://x.com/educationgadfly/status/979363551914725377
Greg McVerry@Ebonyteach Have you ever seen Whoopi Goldberg's introduction and explanation of Mammy in the Tom and Jerry DVD collection? I find it an interesting cultural artifact. Still want to ask Whoopi if she wrote the script what she would say now

Greg McVerryCelebrating @realDonaldTrump 42% approval rating as a good thing is like saying, "Ahh Billy didn't get a zero this time in fact he is very close to a D-" http://bit.ly/2IZvBNX
Greg McVerryYou have to feel bad for @realDonaldTrump 's cabinet. Every time news breaks in Mueller case someone gets fired.
