@trescolumnae One of the worse assessment practice in high school is grading notebooks based on organization. #GradingWrongThing #edchat

@ayatawel A rubric with too many criterion and a 3-5 point scale can be just as useless as a grade. Grades can be holistic. #edchat

@cybraryman1 It also cuts down on the amount of time tchrs need to spend. They can just look for areas that address students goals. #edchat

@teachkate @tomwhitby tchrs are also not skilled in using feedback well and often turn to grading instead of assessing. #edchat

@kfasimpaur I found blogger to be easier, installing themes, Setting up the pages, using short code, knowing what plug ins to install, etc.

@luhoka @kfasimpaur @mtechman @dogtrax But to Luke's point that creates a barrier to entry. Blogger would be lower barrier. Have two tiers

@kcough Tweet is also misleading. Report said 5/11 w/ mayoral control made progress. Thus argues the majority dont improve #ctedreform

@kcough Yes. Take away control from the public. Why support democracy? Power should always be concentrated. #ctedreform

@MrsT73199 @MrRayles weary of digital citizenship. Most driven by fear of pedophiles and cyberbullying rather than activism #literacies
